Chain-free three-bedroom bungalow with garage/studio and enclosed garden.
Detached single-storey bungalow with countryside views
Set in a quiet cul-de-sac on the edge of Axminster, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers single-storey living with genuine countryside views and a private, enclosed rear garden. At about 1,193 sq ft the layout feels spacious: a bright living room with a log burner, a kitchen/breakfast room, two double bedrooms and a flexible third room that can serve as a dining room or bedroom. Solar panels and a well-kept exterior contribute to the property’s eco credentials.
Practical extras include onsite parking and a substantial attached garage/studio/workshop (c.20 ft) perfect for a hobby space, home office or secure storage. The garden has patio and lawn areas plus a feature pond, creating pleasant space for outdoor entertaining and family use. The bungalow is chain-free, so a straightforward move is possible for buyers seeking a rapid purchase.
There are some material points to note: heating is via electric and room heaters with a log burner, which may mean higher running costs than homes with gas central heating. The walls are cavity-built with no known added insulation and the age of the double glazing is not recorded, so opportunities — and likely expense — exist for insulation and heating upgrades to improve comfort and efficiency. The property dates from the mid-20th century and, while well-presented, will benefit from selective modernisation if you want contemporary systems and finishes.
This home will suit families, downsizers or buyers wanting a single-level property with workshop space and rural outlook. For purchasers prioritising low-energy running costs, the solar panels help, but budget should be allowed for insulation and heating improvements to unlock the full potential of this bungalow.
