DESCRIPTION
ChocolateBox are proud to present this fine looking and much loved home. The current owner has regrettably decided now is the time to put her bungalow up for sale; we genuinely hope the new owners will care for and enjoy it as much as she has.
Completely renovated in 2014 with no expense spared on the many improvements. It is beautifully presented with at least £80,000 spent rewiring, plastering, installing a cloakroom, new kitchen and bathroom, new conservatory, garden room, decorating, new carpets, block paving the private driveway and enhancing the garden.
Step in to a pretty hallway to find a new cloakroom, modern kitchen, sitting room, two bedrooms and the family bathroom.
A traditional, country kitchen (20'3 x 9'3) consists of white wall and base units, coloured wall tiles, single electric oven, 4 ring ceramic hob, washer/dryer, enamel sink and drainer, mixer tap, space for a large fridge/freezer, plenty of wooden worktops, stylish Karndean vinyl tiled floor and more than adequate space for a breakfast table.
The sitting room (16'7 x 12'2) is on the opposite side of the hallway. A warm and welcoming room with a working fireplace, cream coloured carpet and a large bay window overlooking the front garden.
The main bedroom (11'9 x 11'6) is a good size. Carpet underfoot, space for a wardrobe with a large window overlooking the front garden.
Bedroom 2 (11'2 x 8'8), currently arranged with a single bed, is also spacious. It's a sunny room overlooking the rear terrace and garden. If you open the window on a summer's day the waft of scented pink roses is heavenly.
The family bathroom (6'10 x 6'1) is fully-tiled complete with a white bath and overhead shower, hand basin, close coupled WC. Easy to convert to a wet room if desired.
Just outside the bathroom you will find a ceiling hatch with a pull-down ladder that opens into a partially boarded loft (approx. 21'0 x 21'0). With ample head height it offers fantastic potential to extend the accommodation with two further rooms (STPP). Neighbouring bungalows have set precedent and done exactly this!
In addition, a new gas fired combi boiler was installed in 2014 which is serviced annually. Double glazing, solid wooden doors, and luxury flooring throughout wonderfully complements this well-designed and cared for efficient home.
OUTSIDE
At the rear is an enclosed and relatively low maintenance garden including a terrace, lawn and a myriad of flowers and roses. The owner has spent many a time pottering in her peaceful haven, tending the plants and soaking up the sun!
The large wooden garden room (14'1 x 10'0) is fully insulated, ply lined, double glazed with power and lighting. Currently used as a room for the grand children, we think it would also make a great hobby room or garden office.
Adjoining is a useful shed to store hand tools, garden furniture and equipment.
Beyond the south facing garden is a quiet, grassy area and only emphasises why this side of the road is much revered.
To the front is a lawned garden with borders, shrubs and plants. A block paved driveway provides off-road parking for at least 5-6 cars leading to a single, detached garage also with wooden doors, power, and lighting.
No. 4 is a highly desirable property. Set back on a sizeable plot with decent frontage. One of twenty properties in Woodcrest Road it is quiet and secure with friendly and thoughtful neighbours. The little wood at the end of the road is very suitable for dog walking and a handy cut through to the local shops.
