"Convenient, stylish and with a contemporary twist, this super bungalow lies within walking distance of the town centre and has been extensively modernised to provide comfortable and versatile accommodation.

The Property Offering flexible living space to suit all ages, this super stylish semi detached bungalow is sure to tick a lot of boxes for buyers. Following a top to toe transformation by the current owners, it offers much more than initially meets the eye and now offers well planned and practical rooms that could be adapted to your own requirements but with a sociable open plan kitchen living room at its heart.

Located off the town centre, it lies within walking distance of schools, the shops and the recently opened leisure centre and swimming pool complex but feels somewhat "tucked away" being sat in a good size plot with a surprisingly private garden at the rear.

The former porch has been replaced with a stylish contemporary version acting as both a spacious entrance lobby and boot room with its bespoke fitted storage including coat hooks, drawers and shelving. Beyond, you enter into the hub of the home a fabulous open plan kitchen living room. Light and bright with dual aspect windows, the kitchen has a touch of "industrial chic" with its deep blue units, copper accents and metro tiling. The units include storage cupboards, drawers and basket storage as well as bespoke shelving.

Oak worktops incorporate a breakfast bar for informal dining, and double butler sink with copper mixer tap. The units incorporate space for your dishwasher, and further spaces for both a range cooker with cooker hood over and fridge freezer. Attractive wood effect LVT flooring flows throughout, picking up the use of timber in the internal doors and window sills, unifying the rooms and creating a cohesive modern look with a touch of the traditional.

The inner hall opens to a separate reception room, currently a formal dining room which could be used as a further bedroom if required. There are three bedrooms, the main bedroom enjoying a lovely outlook over the attractive gardens at the rear. This bedroom has been fitted with bespoke wardrobes and drawers to make the most of the space. There s more great attention to detail with brushed steel sockets, switch plates and smart panelling creating texture and cosiness. There are two further bedrooms currently used as home offices, one with french doors to the garden. The spacious and well designed bathroom has been amalgamated from three separate spaces and not only offers a luxurious suite but also a walk in utility cupboard with plumbing for your washing machine, power points and really useful shelving. The bathroom itself has been very cleverly conceived with just the right balance of contemporary and character. The suite includes a freestanding bath, generous walk in shower with rain shower, vanity wash hand basin crafted from an original treddle sewing machine table, and close coupled WC. To one side is a chrome ladder style towel radiator.

Outside To the front, a driveway provides parking and access to the front door. The front garden is laid to slate chippings with evergreen shrub and lavender edging. A bin store keeps the wheelie bins and recycling hidden from view and a path leads around to the side of the property, leading to the rear garden. Along the path is an external door to the boiler room external store.

As well as the side path, the rear garden can be accessed from a door in the hall, or french doors from one of the bedrooms.

A sheltered gravelled seating area lies adjacent to the rear of the bungalow ideal for pretty pots, with external power point and stepping stone path leading to the rest of the garden. A large gravelled area provides ample space for outside dining, edged with timber sleepers and a including a raised ornamental pond with reclaimed stone trough water feature. Sleeper steps lead up to a lovely square lawn, with raised beds including shrubs and architectural planting such as Phormiums and grasses. There s a path to one side and wildflower garden along the eastern boundary, planted with apple, pear and plum trees. Mature grapevines adorn a timber frame and provide privacy and colour when in leaf throughout the year. At the end of the garden is a further seating area with timber pergola and swing seat, ideal for entertaining into the small hours with its wood burning stove for a cosy glow. A timber gate leads through into a working area with greenhouse, and useful brick storage shed. There is also a mature ornamental cherry tree providing excellent spring blossom. The rear boundary is a lovely old stone wall, reputed to be part of the original historic town wall.
