Set on a generous 0.27-acre corner plot in a semi-rural hamlet, this two-bedroom detached bungalow offers single-level living with substantial outdoor space and countryside outlooks. The house has a practical layout: dual-aspect sitting room with fireplace, separate dining room, conservatory, kitchen with pantry and utility area, two double bedrooms, bathroom and separate WC. The conservatory and south-west facing rear garden deliver light and pleasant afternoon sun.
The plot is the property’s standout feature. Lawns, mature hedging and outbuildings (summer house, shed, greenhouse) create private outdoor amenity and scope for garden living. A double-width driveway provides ample parking and there is space to reinstate a garage (subject to planning) where a previous structure once stood. The approach lane forms part of the title, although a neighbouring property has a right of access over it.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important. Heating is by LPG/oil-fired boiler and an oil tank sits in the rear garden; the boiler has not been tested and condition is unknown. The bungalow appears to be timber-framed with no listed insulation, and much of the double glazing predates 2002. There is potential for extension and refurbishment (subject to planning) which will appeal to buyers wanting to add value or adapt the layout.
This home suits a buyer seeking low-rise, countryside living with scope to personalise and improve. It will particularly appeal to downsizers who prize outdoor space and single-floor convenience, or to buyers prepared to carry out targeted updates to modernise heating, insulation and internal finishes while benefiting from a large plot and a quiet rural setting.
