2 Bedroom House - Detached
Located on a peaceful single track road just outside of the centre of Kings Langley and with excellent proximity to the countryside. A rarely available detached bungalow on a large Southerly plot which has excellent scope to extend and current permission for demolition with the construction of a grand designs 3,000 sq ft property.
The Current Property
A characterful bungalow in this secluded location, surrounded by fields and woodland, whilst still within a few minutes’ drive from Kings Langley High Street. Offering versatile accommodation, which is well presented and tastefully decorated throughout.
The living and dining areas are semi-open plan to the kitchen, providing a seamless flow and opening directly out to the garden. The two bedrooms are both well-appointed double rooms with fitted storage.
Externally, the house excels. The rear garden measures approximately 145ft and is mainly laid to lawn. At the rear is a spacious outbuilding which would perfectly suit a home office/gym/games room. A particularly wide side access leads you to the front of the house, where there is ample parking and a sizeable car port.
Fulfilling The Potential
An opportunity to acquire a property set on a plot of just over a quarter of an acre, complete with planning consent for the construction of a substantial 3,046 sq ft contemporary home. The existing accommodation comprises a two-bedroom house extending to approximately 959 sq ft, alongside a newly constructed 255 sq ft garden studio with kitchen and bathroom facilities. This arrangement offers the flexibility for a purchaser to reside on site whilst undertaking the build. The approved scheme presents a striking and well-proportioned modern home, ideally suited to the generous plot, which benefits from a circa 150 ft garden and ample driveway parking. The property is positioned along one of the most picturesque and desirable stretches of Rucklers Lane in a setting defined by open countryside, a scattering of individual homes, and a distinctly unspoilt semi-rural character, yet remaining conveniently accessible to the centre of Kings Langley.
