Property description & features

This is a rare opportunity to acquire an iconic true bungalow a short distance from the bustling centre of Whalley. Immaculately refurbished throughout and boasting beautifully landscaped gardens previously featured on the BBC's Gardener's World programme, this three-bedroom property is truly in show home condition.

Built in 1990, this imposing bungalow has seen continuous enhancements and bears absolutely no resemblance to its original specification. The front door is approached across a hardwood decked veranda with glass balustrading, ideal for enjoying a morning coffee in the sunshine. The beautifully designed bungalow welcomes you with a wide entrance hall leading into the welcoming lounge with its Morsø solid fuel stove, perfect for a chilly winter day. The stunning Stuart Frazer designed Siematic kitchen exudes style and elegance, with the cabinetry complemented by quartz counters and upstands; the kitchen is further enhanced by the stainless steel Franke undercounter sink, with swan neck mixer tap and Quooker boiling water tap. The superior cooking appliances comprise a Gaggenau induction hob with extractor over, Neff oven with hide-and-slide door and a combination microwave oven. The integrated appliances comprise a fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Set out in a popular open-plan style, the kitchen / diner has electric under floor heating over two zones. With a virtual glass wall, the gardens can be enjoyed all day long with wooden framed French doors opening onto a hardwood deck.

An inner hall connects to the bedrooms and house bathroom. The fabulous master bedroom has an additional side window which overlooks the veranda and front door; the luxurious en suite features include stylish Siematic cabinetry, a Corian washbasin with upstand and exclusive Samuel Heath taps and substantial glass shelves flanking a wall mirror, illuminated with LED pelmet lights. There is a Laufen concealed cistern wall-hung WC and a glazed Kohler cubicle with Samuel Heath mixer valve and a rainfall ceiling mounted shower. The walls and floor are tiled and underfloor heating guarantees warmth. A chromed ladder radiator keeps the towels warm and the hot water cylinder is housed within an airing cupboard.

Bedroom two is a small double room with pleasant outlooks over the front gardens. Bedroom three / garden room is a smaller double, with French wooden framed opening onto the sunny veranda boasting lovely views across the pristine rear garden towards Whalley Nab.

Just like the en suite, the house bathroom is both stylish and luxurious. With tiled walls and underfloor heating, it features a wet floor shower with Daryl column shower system and glass panels. The Laufen suite comprises a pedestal washbasin with Axor taps, wall-hung concealed WC and a bath with an Axor tap and hand-held wand. Above the basin is a Schneider mirrored toiletries cabinet, complete with shaver point and lighting; there is also an asymmetric chromed towel radiator.

Approximate Gross Internal Area (GIA): 1,312.9 sq.ft. (122.0 sq. m)

Casa Lago's gardens are a joy to behold and, down the years, many people have experienced their wonder during Whalley's Open Garden charity events; as mentioned in the opening paragraph, they have also been been the subject of Gardener's World. The Japanese-inspired theme offers a most relaxing experience and the south-west facing rear garden makes the most of any sunny day. The hardwood decking, with its graduated steps, is a delightful place for relaxing with family or friends; the soothing sound of running water from the three ponds only adds to the sense of tranquility, as does the view over the steep green slopes of Whalley Nab.

The original two-bay garage has been repurposed to provide two separate work spaces, one a studio overlooking the garden and the other a gardener's store. In this post-pandemic age, working from home has become ever more popular and the conversions will doubtless appeal to many aspiring buyers.

There is safe and secure off-road parking, with robust gates and intercom electric gate on the paved drive.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
