3 bedroom bungalow

COMMENTARY
This beautifully presented bungalow offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a spacious yet manageable home in the tranquil setting of Greenlaw. The property benefits from a thoughtfully designed layout, with an entrance porch leading into a well-proportioned hallway. The lounge serves as a focal point of the home, featuring a multi-fuel stove that enhances both warmth and ambiance with a large picture window featuring the stunning view of the neighbouring fields as far as the eye can see, while an archway seamlessly connects the space to the open-plan kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is well-equipped with modern appliances, including integrated under-counter white goods, a double oven, and ample pantry storage. The open plan design allows for easy interaction between living spaces, making it ideal for both family life and entertaining.

The conservatory offers a secluded retreat with uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside, providing a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the scenic landscape. Double doors open onto the property’s decking area, extending the living space outdoors, ideal for al fresco dining or simply appreciating the natural beauty of the area. The large private gardens envelop the home, providing ample space for gardening, play, or relaxation, while the rear aspect of the property benefits from breath taking views over lush green fields stretching to the horizon.

All three bedrooms are generously sized doubles, each benefiting from built-in wardrobes to maximise storage and functionality. The two rear bedrooms take full advantage of the stunning countryside views, while the front-facing bedroom overlooks the neatly maintained garden. The home’s family-friendly layout is further enhanced by both a full bathroom and a separate three-piece shower room, the latter featuring space-saving sliding doors for added practicality.

Additional notable features include a designated hallway area with a floor-to-ceiling window, perfect for use as a home office or a cosy reading nook. The property has been decorated and finished to a high standard, with beautiful wooden flooring adding character and warmth throughout. A practical utility space can be accommodated within the entrance porch, providing space and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, ensuring convenience without compromising the home’s main living areas.
