Boarded loft and full-footprint cellars offer conversion potential
New combi boiler 2024; roof and glazing updated within 10 years
Kitchen and bathroom refurbished roughly 10 years ago
Partial re-wire completed; further electrical work possible

A distinctive Colonial-style detached bungalow on an exceptionally large plot of almost half an acre, this 1920s home combines original period character with important modern upgrades. The generous footprint (approx. 3,574 sq ft) includes a 30ft enclosed veranda, two principal reception rooms, a large dining kitchen with pantry and utility, and three sizeable bedrooms — ideal for family living or buyers seeking a handsome, character-filled home. Recent improvements include a new roof, a 2024 combi boiler, replacement glazing and partial re-wiring carried out within the last ten years, and a refurbished kitchen and bathroom installed about a decade ago.
Significant scope for expansion sets this property apart: external cellars mirror the upper ground footprint and could be incorporated into living space subject to building regulations, while the large boarded loft offers conversion potential (subject to planning). Both options present genuine uplift potential for buyers wanting more bedrooms or additional living accommodation without extending the existing footprint dramatically.
Externally the house sits well back from the road with a substantial carriage driveway, double garage and mature lawned gardens to three sides, offering privacy and plenty of parking. The location is established and affluent, close to Alkrington Woods, local shops, schools and transport links — suiting families or owners seeking a prestigious suburban setting.
Buyers should note the sale includes a positive covenant preventing future subdivision or additional dwelling construction on the land. While many structural and service upgrades have been completed, the property retains period fabric and some original fixtures that will require ongoing maintenance; further internal works would be needed to bring cellar or loft spaces into habitable use to modern standards.
