Windlehurst Road is a lovely detached bungalow that's been in the same family since it was built back in 1929.
What makes this property particularly interesting is the plot. It actually spans two house numbers, 157 and 159 Windlehurst Road, giving you a really substantial amount of outside space, something that's quite rare to find.
The gardens wrap around the property and back directly onto open farmland, with some great views across the surrounding area, particularly when the sun sets.
The house itself dates back to 1929, so you've still got plenty of the original character you'd expect from a home of this age. But importantly, there's also been a considerable amount of investment in the property over recent years.
This includes a brand new roof, solar panels, double glazing, central heating and a new Aga, so whilst the home retains much of its original character, it's also benefited from some really worthwhile modern improvements.
Inside, there's a really good amount of space and a flexible layout. Currently, the property is arranged with three bedrooms and three reception rooms, but there's certainly scope to use the rooms differently if you needed additional bedrooms.
It's clear the home has been really well cared for over the years, and I think there's a nice balance here. You've got a property that's already had some significant work carried out, whilst still offering the opportunity for someone to put their own stamp on it.
And that's one of the biggest benefits. Whether you're looking for a substantial bungalow with plenty of space, want to reconfigure the existing accommodation, or even explore the potential of the wider plot for further development, subject of course to the necessary planning permissions, there are quite a few options to consider.
Outside
The property sits behind wooden gates, with a long driveway providing plenty of parking and leading down to a large double garage towards the rear of the plot.
The gardens are a real highlight. They're substantial, wrap around the house and offer plenty of lawn space, established trees and mature planting.
To the rear, the garden backs directly onto farmers' fields, giving you a lovely open outlook and a good degree of privacy.
For me, it's the combination of the plot, the setting and the flexibility of the house that makes this one particularly interesting. Particularly when you consider the investment that's already gone into the property over recent years
