Set well back down a quiet no-through lane in sought-after Upper Bucklebury, this detached five-bedroom bungalow sits on a private 0.47-acre plot with mature planting and a wildlife pond. The house offers flexible single-storey living: a generous sitting room with wood-burning stove, conservatory, family room and a principal bedroom with en suite, plus a study that can serve as a fifth bedroom.
Outside there is substantial garaging with electric roller doors, a carport and private gravel drive, alongside well-stocked borders, greenhouse, sheds and an automatic electric mower. Solar panels are installed and much of the property benefits from double glazing added after 2002. A large loft with ladder gives clear potential to extend (subject to planning consent).
Buyers should note practical details: the property occupies an unadopted lane, drains to a septic tank and is listed as Council Tax Band F with an Energy Rating of D. The house was extended in the late 1970s/early 1980s, has been in long ownership and may benefit from updating in places to suit modern preferences.
This bungalow will particularly suit buyers seeking spacious, single-level accommodation with a large, private garden in a very affluent, village setting — ideal for someone looking to downsize without sacrificing space or for a family wanting peaceful countryside living with easy access to local schools and amenities.
