Tucked away on a wonderfully sought-after road in the desirable village of Hest Bank, this charming detached true bungalow sits proudly on a generous plot, offering both immediate comfort and exciting future potential.
From the moment you step inside, the home reveals plenty of scope for improvement and personalisation. A spacious hallway with wood flooring, built-in storage cupboards and a wood store offers a strong starting point, showcasing character features that could be restored and enhanced throughout. The lounge provides a generous main living space, centred around a log-burning stove and enjoying views over the front garden, an ideal room to rework into a warm, inviting heart of the home.
To the rear, a quiet study overlooks the garden and offers potential for a dedicated home office or additional reception space. The kitchen and adjoining rear porch, which includes plumbing for a washing machine, present further opportunity for reconfiguration or modernisation. The bungalow offers flexible and well-proportioned accommodation, including double bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC, making it well-suited to buyers seeking a project with the scope to adapt, extend or reimagine to suit their needs.
One of the standout features is the substantial loft room, accessed via a sturdy pull-down ladder. This expansive space presents an exciting opportunity to create additional bedrooms, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Outside, the property offers further scope for enhancement. There is a detached garage and off-road parking, along with mature, established trees to the front that provide a sense of privacy and long-term character. The enclosed rear garden, which was previously heavily overgrown, has now been cleared and presents a blank canvas for landscaping and reconfiguration.
With its flexible layout, generous plot and highly regarded location, this bungalow presents an excellent opportunity for purchasers seeking a renovation project.
