Plumbing is in place for a washing machine and there is a recess for a fridge and freestanding cooker. Gas fired boiler and aspect to front.

The bungalow enjoys three well-proportioned bedrooms, each offering peaceful retreats with views of the surrounding gardens and the fells in the distance. The main bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes, providing ample storage space. A further room ideal for a study/hobbies room is located off the hallway and has access to the rear garden from sliding doors. The family bathroom provides a 3 piece suite comprising WC, panelled bath with chrome shower over, pedestal wash hand basin and heated towel rail. This completes the internal accommodation, offering convenience for family living with double glazing and central heating throughout

Externally, the property is set on a generous plot with mature, established gardens offering areas of mature shrubs, plants and flowers that wrap around the bungalow to front and rear, offering privacy and a tranquil setting. The garden is a haven for nature lovers, with providing a delightful backdrop for relaxation and enjoyment of the open views with a good size patio perfect for outdoor dining. The spacious plot also offers potential for further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Beneath the bungalow is a useful undercroft space, perfect for storage and maybe a small workshop space. Potential also exists for possible development of the loft area (subject to consents).
