3 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

It’s What’s Inside That Counts. Viewed from the street there’s nothing particularly remarkable about this corner plot bungalow. But prepare to be blown away when you see the potential inside this versatile single storey home that’s not just for OAPs.

Guide Price £280,000 - £290,000

This modernised and extended 3 bedroom family-friendly home might make you change your mind about bungalows.

Once dismissed as only the choice of downsizers, you don’t need to have dodgy knees to see the benefit of single storey living.

If you’ve got young kids or pets, it’ll be a huge relief not having to worry about stairgates or nasty falls.

And having everything on one floor means it won’t be so different to living in an apartment. The only difference being off-street parking for several vehicles, a built-in garage and a low maintenance back garden.

It’s been very well looked after and is in great condition, inside and out - it really is ready for you to move into.

Even though it’s been extended it still has a traditional layout - meaning there’s potential to open it up and create a more modern, sociable space.

The lounge and kitchen are at the front with a separate dining room at the rear (with French doors out to the paved back garden).

If you’re not fans of formal dining this could be transformed into a 4th double bedroom or a TV or games room.

The kitchen and lounge (and even the front lobby) could be opened up to create a spacious and welcoming, family friendly room for cooking, eating and relaxing together.

The three double bedrooms are all towards the rear and they’re all good size doubles.

A slight downside is that one of the bedrooms can only be accessed through the other. This may not be ideal depending on your family setup.

With a bit of creative thought and remodelling (a fancy term for knocking down walls) the two rooms could be turned into an impressive master bedroom suite with an en-suite and dressing room.

And if you’re happy to lose the dining room as suggested above you’d still be left with three bedrooms!

It certainly is worth thinking about.

As this could be a fantastic family home it’s good to know that the closest primary school (Alderman Jacobs) is less than 10 minutes walk away.

It’s only a 5 minute drive from Whittlesey town centre and just 6 minutes to the station.

Peterborough is less than 20 minutes drive away or 10 minutes on the train from Whittlesea.

This could be the ideal base if you need to commute into London for work or pleasure. You can jump on an East Coast Mainline train at Peterborough and be stepping onto the Kings Cross platform in around an hour.

If you can get past your bungalow hangups and can see the potential this could be a perfect family home.

It’s also ideal for downsizers looking for a spacious single storey home that’s ready to move into.

Move-in-ready bungalows like this don’t come onto the market very often so make sure you don’t miss out.
