The extensive open plan kitchen and dining room provides plenty of space for a large dining table and other furniture. The kitchen is fitted with an attractive range of Shaker style wall and base units with warm wooden work surfaces and a matching kitchen island with breakfast bar, and further storage can be found in the pantry and store. There is an integrated dishwasher and a Range cooker with gas hob and electric fan oven. Two of the double bedrooms are downstairs and they share a family bathroom with white suite. Stairs lead up from the rear hallway to the principal suite which has a 19’ bedroom with vaulted ceiling, an ensuite shower room, a walk-in wardrobe, and easy access eaves storage.

Outside

From double wrought iron gates on Front Street, a tarmac driveway crosses the property to a five-bar wooden gate on the quiet cul-de-sac of Ham Lane, providing plenty of parking and easy access. The bungalow sits to one side of the driveway with gardens front and back which are mainly laid to lawn bordered by mature colourful flower beds, shrubs and trees. Pretty stone outbuildings run almost the full length of the drive and include various garaging, workshops and storage. With the appropriate consents there is potential for conversion.
