This large detached chalet bungalow offers flexible family living across just over 2,000 sq ft with far-reaching rural field views. The ground floor includes a generous lounge, dining room, study, kitchen with utility, conservatory and a bedroom with en-suite — convenient for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs provides three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom, giving scope for three to five bedrooms depending on your layout needs.
Practical strengths include a brick-weave driveway with off-road parking, a single garage with power and light, mains drainage and a recently replaced oil boiler (Oct 2023). Double glazing and cavity wall construction provide sensible thermal performance, though the property currently has an EPC rating of D. The owners have maintained tidy established gardens that sit alongside open countryside, which deliver exceptional outlooks from the rear-facing rooms.
Considerations: heating is oil-fired, which can be more expensive and requires tank maintenance and fuel delivery. The EPC D rating and above-average council tax band E reflect running costs buyers should budget for. While the house is well-proportioned and largely move-in ready, the versatile layout may benefit from cosmetic updating to suit modern tastes.
Set within a quiet executive-style close in the village, this home will appeal to families seeking space, countryside views and good local schools. It is a practical, adaptable property with strong plot size and privacy — ideal for buyers prioritising outdoor space and flexible accommodation.
