4 bedroom bungalow
Key information
Property description & features
- Tenure: Freehold
- 4 Bedrooms
- 0.25 Acre Plot
- Recently Updated
- Opportunity To Extend (Stpp)
The Pollards is a spacious, individual detached bungalow which occupies a set-back position within the popular village of Leigh and benefits from a generous 0.25 acre (approximate) plot with established, mature gardens. Owing to its location within the village, the property enjoys a stunning rural backdrop across the surrounding countryside to the hills beyond.
The property has been extended but in recent years it has undergone extensive updating and modernisation. However, there is still a great opportunity for further extension STPP.
Internally the accommodation is very well proportioned and offers a great degree of flexibility. The flooring throughout has been replaced along with solid oak doors to each room. The living rooms are primarily arranged to the rear of the property and therefore take full advantage of the charming outlook and views. This is particularly the case in the sitting room which benefits from a plentiful supply of windows overlooking the rear garden and a newly installed log burner. The extension flows from the sitting room into a study/dining area with access to a WC and connecting fourth bedroom or potential dressing area. The kitchen also benefits from the same aspect and is well appointed with soft closing base and wall units, as well as a most useful larder cupboard. The kitchen is equipped with white goods such as a Russell Hobbs hob, overhead extractor, Lamona dishwasher and a Lamona double oven and grill. Each of the three other bedrooms are of double proportions. Bedroom 1 is of particular note due to its expansive size, which suggests potential to create ensuite facilities through from the extension area if desired, whilst bedroom 3, is where the versatility of the property is particularly prevalent; this room could easily be utilised as an additional reception room or study, to name but a few potential uses. The property further benefits from a modern bathroom
suite equipped with bath and overhead shower, WC and wash hand basin. The property offers a modern oil fired boiler and central heating system, with most double glazing windows replaced.
