3 bed bungalow for sale

Highfields Road, Highfields Caldecote CB23

A substantial detached bungalow occupying a particularly generous west-facing plot of around 0.28 acres, offering significant potential for improvement and long-term adaptation. Set back from the road on Highfields Road in Highfields Caldecote, the property provides over 1,500 sq ft of single-storey accommodation and presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking space, privacy and the chance to update a home to their own specification.

The internal layout is both practical and well balanced. A central hallway connects the principal rooms, creating a clear separation between living and sleeping areas. The main sitting and dining room is an especially large space extending to over 28 feet in length, easily accommodating both seating and dining areas and offering excellent scope for reconfiguration or modernisation if desired.

The kitchen sits centrally within the plan and is supported by a separate utility room, keeping day-to-day household functions sensibly contained. While the property would now benefit from updating, the existing arrangement offers a solid starting point for refurbishment and could be adapted over time to suit changing needs.

There are three bedrooms, all of comfortable proportions. The principal bedroom is particularly generous with en-suite and sliding doors out onto the garden, while the second bedroom also provides good double accommodation. The third bedroom offers flexibility and could equally serve as a study, guest room or hobby space. The bedrooms are supported by a family bathroom and an additional shower room, a practical feature for visiting family or guests.

One of the property’s defining features is the plot. Extending to approximately 0.28 acres and oriented to the west, the garden provides a notably open and private outdoor setting with excellent afternoon and evening light. The size of the plot also offers clear potential for landscaping, extension or broader improvement, subject of course to the necessary permissions.

To the front, a driveway provides off-street parking and leads to a carport, ensuring practical everyday access and covered parking.
