Property description

A three bedroom detached bungalow with driveway parking, a double garage and an enclosed rear garden situated in a cul-de-sac in Church End, the original part of Biddenham. For sale with no upper chain.

The property, with stone elevations and brick details under a tile roof, has approximately 1,822 sq. ft. of accommodation on one level, including an entrance hall and inner hallway with built-in cupboards, a dining room with double doors to a sitting room, and a fitted kitchen/breakfast room with double doors to a garden room. The principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and a refitted en suite shower room; two further bedrooms, one with a built-in wardrobe, are served by a four piece family bathroom. The front garden has an open design including a lawn interspersed with silver birch trees and a block paved driveway at the side providing parking and access to the integral double garage. A central pathway leads to the entrance and gated side access leads to the private rear garden which is enclosed by established clipped hedging and is principally lawned with a mature tree and a paved outdoor entertaining area.

Reception Rooms

Measuring over 15 ft. by over 10 ft., the dual aspect dining room has double windows to the front, a window overlooking the rear, and double doors leading to the sitting room. The nearly 17 ft. by over 15 ft. sitting room, which is also dual aspect, has a French door with flanking windows opening to the patio and rear garden. There is an exposed stone chimney breast with an inset fireplace on a brick hearth, and like the dining room and entrance hallway, an exposed ceiling beam. Glazed double doors from the breakfast room access the garden room, with a vaulted ceiling and French doors to the patio.

Kitchen/Breakfast and Garden Room

The kitchen measures over 24 ft. and has triple windows overlooking the rear garden and a hatch to the dining room. It is fitted in a modern range of base and wall units with complementary worksurfaces incorporating an inset sink and tiled splashbacks. It has an integrated electric oven with a gas hob and space and plumbing for additional appliances. Chequered tiled flooring continues into the adjacent garden room and there are exposed beams in the ceiling.
