2 bed bungalow for sale

A detached bungalow set in a sizeable plot at the foot of Shotover.

With views to land of the Shotover Estate, this detached property is set within a substantial corner plot and is offered for sale with no onward chain.

Believed to have been built in the 1950s, the property now offers excellent potential for improvement and possible extension (subject to the usual consents). The accommodation is briefly composed of sitting room, study, kitchen/breakfast room, two bedrooms and shower room to the ground, whilst on the first floor is a versatile room that could be used as a bedroom or additional reception area.

The gardens complement the accommodation perfectly, running to three sides of the property and being stocked with a wide variety of mature trees and shrubs. To the front is a private driveaway, approached by a timber five-bar gate, which provides parking for several vehicles. This is flanked on one side by an area of lawn enclosed by mature hedge line. The gardens continue to the side and rear of the property and laid mainly to lawn, again enclosed by mature hedging. Immediately to the rear of the property is a paved terrace with canopy and an ornamental fish pond. There is an additional terrace at the head of the garden with attractive planting and timber arbour with seating.

It is well served by a wide variety of shops and amenities including a supermarket and convenience stores, public houses. Delicatessen, bakery, pharmacy, doctors surgery and post office to name but a few.
