Introduction, Exterior & Garage

This delightful, detached bungalow located on a quiet Norton Canes cul-de-sac will be of high interest to those seeking a long term move to a home that requires little maintenance. It will be particularly attractive to those looking for plenty of off-road parking and a garage as it has a large tarmac driveway that can hold two cars with ease at the front before continuing alongside the bungalow to a long detached garage. The garage measures at over twenty-feet in length and has both a manual up-and-over door at the front and a personnel door to the side. A window at the rear allows in some natural light.

Between the garage and bungalow is an opening to access a large rear garden that angles around the rear of the garage. The garden comprises of a slabbed patio laid close to the building with a large gravel patch covering most of the ground space, with decorative block paving in the centre and to the border. As there is a slight raise in level there are shallow steps laid alongside the garage to access the personnel door and beyond. Tall wooden fencing is erected to the boundaries to enhance privacy.

Bungalow Interior

The bungalow has two entrances from the driveway: The main front door opening to a short hallway, and a side door to access the kitchen. This is ideal for when returning home with groceries. Apart from the shower room, each room has wood-effect laminate flooring laid underfoot. This begins with the hallway which has doors leading off to the kitchen and lounge.

The kitchen is a great sized space that has a recess beside the hallway that is perfect for a four-seater dining table and chairs. The kitchen suite is fitted in a horseshow formation around the rear of the room and features an integrated four-ring gas hob above an oven and grill, and a composite sink and drainer positioned in front of the window to the side. The property has a central heating system with a boiler feeding a hot water tank. The boiler part of this system is concealed within the kitchen units upon the wall to the rear.

The lounge is the largest room in the house and features a wide bowed window at the front of the room and a modern electric fireplace mounted onto a false wall to the left. The fireplace is operated by remote control. The room is easily large enough for a sofa suite and entertainment unit and can offer an additional spot for dining if desired.

Beyond the lounge is a door to the inner hallway which has doors off to both bedrooms, the family shower room and a cupboard housing the hot water tank. There is also an access hatch to the loft above.

The family shower room is very modern and comprises of a large double shower cubicle with adjustable shower head, a chrome heated towel rail and a row of storage units that incorporate the wash basin and toilet.

Both bedrooms are double sized with bedroom one having a range of fitted furniture including wardrobes, drawers and a dressing table. There is a window overlooking the rear garden.
