Large, meticulously maintained rear garden and patio areas
Set on a generous plot in the peaceful village of Highnam, this detached bungalow with attic conversion offers flexible family living and strong outdoor appeal. Large rear glazing frames a meticulously maintained garden, while an upstairs conversion provides two further double bedrooms and a second bathroom — creating a versatile 5–6 bedroom layout suited to growing households or multi-generational use.
The house benefits from owned solar panels, double glazing (fitted post-2002) and mains gas central heating, helping to control running costs. Ground‑floor living includes a spacious lounge, separate reception/office space and a kitchen/dining area that can be easily opened up again to create a modern open-plan hub. Driveway parking, an attached garage and workshop add practical storage and parking capacity.
Buyers should be aware this mid‑20th-century property shows signs of its age and will suit those who want to personalise and update. The cavity walls are as-built with no added insulation (so further thermal improvements are possible) and parts of the interior layout would benefit from refurbishment to fully realise the home’s potential. Council tax is above average for the area.
For families, the location is strong: well-regarded primary and secondary schools are nearby and the village scored highly in community wellbeing awards. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the scale of the plot, the garden outlook and the flexible living arrangements on offer.
