Large plot, garage and clear extension potential (STPP) near Chesham amenities.
Freehold detached bungalow on large, level plot
Set on a large, level plot on Hivings Hill, this detached mid-century bungalow offers substantial scope to extend (STPP) and create a larger family home. The property currently provides two double bedrooms, a generous dual-aspect living room with feature fireplace and an open-plan kitchen/diner that opens out to a paved patio and private garden. Detached garage and a gated driveway provide useful storage and significant off-street parking.
The house presents as tidy and immediately liveable but retains clear potential for improvement. The kitchen is contemporary and bright; bathrooms are functional but could benefit from modernising to maximise value. Double glazing is present but predates 2002 and the building dates from the 1950s–60s, so buyers should expect typical mid-century maintenance or upgrade items.
Important practical notes: extension potential is subject to planning permission (STPP) and should not be assumed automatic. The second bedroom is relatively modest in size and may suit a single occupant, nursery or home office. Local crime levels are reported as above average—prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on security and local conditions.
Location is a principal strength: a short walk to local shops, with convenient access to Chesham town and station and several well-regarded local schools nearby. The combination of single-storey living, a large private garden and a detached garage will particularly appeal to downsizers, small families or buyers seeking a bungalow with clear scope for value-adding extension or refurbishment.
