The Property

The Walnut Tree was constructed in 1988 of Purbeck stone and part rendered elevations under a traditional roof. This unique bungalow is set along a shared private road just off the village centre and enjoys a slightly elevated position which provides pleasant views over the village and the nearby tower of St Andrews church. Despite being a single storey dwelling The Walnut Tree offers close to 1700sq ft of accommodation, including the annexe, which was converted some 20 years ago from the original double garage. An oak clad double carport with workshop provides covered parking via the southern driveway. The property is welcomed to market in excellent decorative condition and includes engineered oak flooring, modern grain effect double glazing and an lpg gas fired central heating system. The current owners have made a number of improvements to the property in the past few years, including a new boiler and upgraded heating system, replacement window glass, loft and cavity wall insulation, new bespoke kitchen and en-suite shower room, and external repainting. The garden has also been redesigned and planted to a high standard. Overall, the bungalow offers great flexibility to potential buyers and could easily suit a family as much as a retiring couple seeking a fine residence in a pretty village setting.
