***Foxhall Estate Agents*** are excited to offer a rare opportunity to purchase this top of the range luxury two bedroom detached bungalow built by local high end builder Chater Homes to an extremely high, no expense spared, specification.

The current owner has had over £30,000 worth of optional extras added to the property at the time of the build. These include, hard landscaping gardens front & rear, water softener, extensive range of extra kitchen units including a double pantry cupboard and fitting of a triple boiling/filtered/chilled water tap. Also includes hedging, mature tree planting, approx. £11,000 of high-end purchase of German made furniture from Glasswells the latter of which could be open to separate negotiation.

At the time of purchase from new three and a half years ago, this particular owner had the choice of a number of plots. They chose Plot 1 due to being in a superior position to other bungalows within the exclusive mews development. The position of this bungalow certainly enables it to benefit from extra light, privacy, its on a bigger plot with more space around it and a bigger front garden. Also this particular plot enables access from the garage direct into the rear garden. The NHBC warranty still has six years to run.

Since new the property has been kept in immaculate condition throughout and is therefore being sold with the benefit of showhome levels of presentation with the added benefit of the optional extras.

There are two double bedrooms which benefit from approximately £11,000 of high end contemporary grey German built joinery including wardrobes, drawers, bedside units and co-ordinated headboards the main one of which also has access to a large top of the range luxury en-suite shower room. There is electric underfloor heating throughout the bungalow and a westerly facing extensive bespoke fitted kitchen/dining room which, with the benefit of the added optional extras, is a lovely sunny room for a good part of the day with every facility that could be wished for. There is also a front to back lounge which is both east and westerly facing making it a very sunny and light room for a good part of the day with triple bi-fold doors opening directly out onto the patio area of the rear garden.

Throughout there are luxury fitments such as oak finish doors, carpets and floorings all included, plus a luxury family bathroom and a separate double built-in utility cupboard in the hallway. The property is incredibly energy efficient, being almost new with up to the minute insulation in the loft and combined with the electric underfloor heating makes this warm and cosy at all times of the year. The rear garden is an absolute low maintenance suntrap being extensively paved as part of the hard landscaping options purchased and fully enclosed, sheltered and secluded with a wide side storage area that could be ideal for erection of a shed.

In the valuer's opinion an early internal viewing is highly advised to not miss out on this fantastic opportunity.
