Thoughtfully remodelled and extensively refurbished by the present owners, this three-bedroom detached bungalow combines stylish interiors with a wonderfully established rear garden. Originally built in the mid-1960s, the home now offers a welcoming blend of contemporary finishes, individual character and bright, well-planned accommodation.

An attractive landscaped frontage and generous driveway create an inviting first impression. A modern composite front door opens into the spacious entrance hall, where stylish LVT flooring sets the tone for the accommodation beyond. Solid wood internal doors and reskimmed ceilings reflect the care taken throughout the refurbishment.

The separate sitting room provides a comfortable retreat, with a large front-facing window drawing in plenty of natural light. Its generous proportions allow ample space for seating, creating an inviting room in which to relax.

At the heart of the home, the open-plan kitchen/dining room enjoys a lovely connection with the garden. Contemporary cabinetry is complemented by contrasting work surfaces, a range cooker and distinctive patterned flooring, bringing character to this sociable space. A large picture window frames views of the garden, while the adjoining dining area has double doors opening onto the terrace, making outdoor dining and entertaining an easy extension of everyday life.

The three bedrooms are arranged along one side of the bungalow. The principal bedroom is a particular highlight, with French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, a lovely feature for enjoying a quiet morning outdoors. Bedroom two is a generous double with a large front-facing window, while the third bedroom, currently used as a dressing room, offers flexibility as a guest bedroom or study. A beautifully appointed shower room completes the accommodation, with contemporary tiling and a wet-room-style finish.

Outside, the frontage combines gravelled areas, paving and established planting, providing ample parking and access to a garage measuring over 19ft, with an adjoining workshop.

The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property’s greatest attractions. Extending to approximately 80ft, subject to measured survey, it has been thoughtfully landscaped to create distinct spaces for relaxing, entertaining and gardening. A generous paved terrace leads onto the lawn, bordered by well-stocked beds, mature shrubs and trees that provide colour, texture and a good degree of privacy.

A covered pergola creates a sheltered space for outdoor seating, while the detached bar/games room adds a further dimension to the garden. With its sociable layout and individual styling, it is an excellent setting for hosting friends or enjoying evenings at home. A mature oak in the far-left corner provides an attractive backdrop to this established outdoor space.

Beautifully presented and full of personality, this is a home whose appeal extends well beyond its interiors, with a garden that makes spending time outdoors a particular pleasure.
