Beautifully presented
A beautifully presented and modernised three-bedroom detached bungalow, benefiting from air source heating and solar pv to ensure an energy efficient home. This spacious property is set on a generous plot with delightful countryside views. Quietly tucked away on a private no-through lane in a peaceful rural village.
The Property
The accommodation is thoughtfully laid out and begins with a welcoming entrance hall featuring a fitted cupboard and attractive parquet flooring. This leads into a generous, dual-aspect sitting room with an inset wood-burning stove set on a hearth, creating a cosy focal point, alongside a TV connection point and wall lights.
The kitchen is both stylish and functional, offering ample storage with a range of cupboards and drawers, sleek granite work surfaces, sink with drainer, electric range cooker with induction hob and an integrated dishwasher. A central island with a granite top and breakfast bar provides a sociable spot for casual dining. The tiled floor continues seamlessly into a separate dining room/snug, which offers plenty of space for a table and chairs and benefits from bi-folding doors that open out to a decked area-perfect for entertaining or relaxing outdoors.
There are three bedrooms in total. The master is a well-proportioned double room with fitted wardrobes, parquet flooring and an additional built-in cupboard providing useful storage. The second bedroom is also a double, while the third is a comfortable single with fitted wardrobes. Both the second and third bedrooms benefit from laminate wood flooring.
A separate office offers a quiet space for working from home and leads into a particularly attractive garden room. This light-filled space features a vaulted and insulated roof with recessed lighting, tiled floo, and French doors that open directly onto the garden.
The contemporary shower room is fitted with modern sanitary ware, including a wall-hung vanity basin, WC with concealed cistern and a corner shower.
Further practical touches include a useful utility room with space and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, additional sink and storage options, as well as a separate cloakroom with heated towel rail, WC and basin. The property also benefits from an attached garage with an electric door and gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking.
Energy efficiency is a key highlight, with an air source heating system, solar pv panels that generate a significant income, and uPVC triple-glazed windows, all contributing to reduced running costs and a more environmentally friendly home.

Predominantly laid to lawn, it boasts well-stocked flower borders and a productive fruit and vegetable garden with raised planters, greenhouse and a garden shed with power. A composite decked area adjoins the house, with a pathway connecting to the garden room-perfect for enjoying the outdoor space in comfort.
