A roomy two-bedroom detached bungalow set on about 0.4 acre on the edge of Gatehouse of Fleet, ideal for buyers seeking single-storey living and generous outdoor space. The property features a large living/dining room with a fireplace, sliding doors to the garden and a sunroom that opens to the rear lawn — good for relaxed, all‑season use. Practical spaces include a fitted kitchen, adjoining utility room, separate WC and a family bathroom with both bath and separate shower.
Outside, double gates lead to a long driveway with parking for several cars and a detached garage. Extensive, mainly lawned gardens with mature trees, a greenhouse and shed offer privacy and scope for gardening or leisure. The house benefits from gas central heating and double glazing but the EPC rating is D, so some energy improvements may be desirable.
Location suits downsizers or those wanting quiet rural life with local amenities close by: primary school, shops, cafés and nearby beaches and coastal walks. Transport links to larger towns are available though broadband speeds are slow and the wider area records higher deprivation and above-average council tax — factors to weigh for homeworking or budget planning.
The bungalow is largely well maintained externally and presents straightforward potential for modernising internal finishes, improving energy performance, or adapting rooms to suit changing needs. A viewing will best convey internal condition and the full layout, particularly given the generous plot and countryside setting.
