A substantial single-storey bungalow set in a large, mature plot just outside Malpas. The house offers flexible accommodation — four double bedrooms plus a fifth room suitable as a guest suite or small annexe — and spacious living areas that capture wide rural views from the P-shaped lounge and garden-facing rooms. Solar panels and an air-source heat pump reduce running costs, though the main boiler is oil-fired and the EPC is D.
The gardens are a standout: extensive lawn, two summer houses, vegetable area, pond and a large Indian stone patio for entertaining. A five-bar gate leads to additional land suitable for a small paddock for a pony or hobby livestock. Ample off-street parking and a large brick-built store/workshop add practical value for families who need storage or a home workshop.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The property retains an oil boiler and the date of double-glazing installation is unknown — some buyers may want to budget for window or heating upgrades in future. The layout and substantial plot, however, present clear potential for a self-contained annexe or further adaptation subject to consents.
This house will suit buyers seeking rural privacy close to village amenities, families wanting ground-floor living with scope for multi-generational use, or purchasers wanting a country base with room for pets, small-scale equestrian use, or garden projects. The setting and size make it a rare bungalow option in this desirable area, but budget for some ongoing maintenance and possible modernization.
