  • Potential to replace with larger dwelling
  • Potential separate building plot
  • Rail station and A12 within approx. 4 miles
  • Highly sought after tree-lined road

Detached bungalow with approximately 44.4m road frontage on about 0.36-acre plot.

Description

Owned by the same family since 1974, this bungalow has been well-maintained and designed so the principal bedrooms and reception room overlook the extensive gardens. The road contains a variety of substantial houses, with many recently developed or extended. Whilst the bungalow itself is a wonderful home with a large plot, there appears to be the potential to re-develop the site with either one large replacement home, or a separate part of the garden creating a building plot. These would require planning permission and are not guaranteed.

The spacious accommodation has a large hall at its core. The accommodation to the right of the hall contains three bedrooms, two overlooking the gardens, and a family bathroom. At the center of the bungalow is a kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with base and eye level units with a plinth separating the two areas. At the rear, overlooking the gardens on two aspects is a generous lounge, incorporating a fireplace and having patio doors onto a terrace. In addition, there is a utility room and cloakroom.

Outside
The bungalow has an around 145 ft (44m) frontage to Beacon Hill, and the property stands on one side of the plot. A gravel drive provides parking and in turn gives access to a detached double garage with a pitched roof. The established gardens wrap around the back of the bungalow, continuing to the right, with around 68 ft (20.7m) frontage onto Beacon Hill. The established gardens contain a variety of trees and shrubs for all year colour and interest. All in about 0.36 acre

Services
Mains water, electricity and drainage. Oil fired central heating.

Agent's note
The property had subsidence work carried out under insurance in the 1980s and the garage was re-built.

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 phone signal availability and predicted strength

    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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
