A reimagined coastal bungalow with scope to grow. Set on a sought-after avenue, this detached bungalow has been thoughtfully renovated to bring together the grace of its period origins with a clean, contemporary finish. Extending to 883 sq ft, the home unfolds across two double bedrooms, a bright dual-aspect living room and a sociable open-plan kitchen and dining space that opens directly onto a south-west facing garden. Planning permission has also been granted for a loft conversion, offering rare scope for future growth.

The Tour
Entry is through a wide hallway, a space of calm proportions that sets the tone for the rest of the house. To one side lies the main reception, where a generous bay window frames leafy outlooks and a log-burning stove adds a quiet sense of intimacy.

Opposite, the kitchen and breakfast room has been designed as the heart of the home. A pared-back palette of modern units and generous work surfaces creates a highly functional space, while glass doors draw light deep into the plan and open directly to the garden beyond — an effortless connection between indoors and out.

Two double bedrooms are arranged off the hallway, each with an inviting sense of comfort, and a well-appointed shower room completes the plan.

The Garden
Wrapping around the house, the garden has been landscaped to create a private south-west facing retreat. A paved terrace extends the living space outward, while a variety of planting softens the edges. A new timber summerhouse sits tucked away, designed for quiet work, reading or contemplation.

There is off-street parking to the front and gated side access to the rear.

The Potential
Planning permission allows for a loft conversion, creating the opportunity to expand both vertically while retaining the existing sense of balance and light.

Alterations to roof including increase to ridge height, addition of 5 roof lights and erection of gable on western roof plane to facilitate loft conversion.

A Unique Opportunity in a Prime Location
This delightful bungalow provides a peaceful retreat while also offering an excellent space for entertaining, all within a quiet and sought-after neighbourhood.
