4 bedroom bungalow

The house is set back from St. Mary's Road, in a delightful private position with garage and secluded walled inner courtyard garden. The front garden features a fishpond and bridge and a useful covered walkway leads to the front entrance door.
The front door opens to the entrance hall which provides a feeling of invitation onwards to the fabulous, bright and welcoming open plan kitchen/dining/living area. To one side of the entrance hall, there is a home office (which could be used as a bedroom), with a useful guest cloakroom WC immediately next door.
The original quarry tile floor provides a lovely contrast and warmth to the space and exposed local hand-made brickwork provides depth.
The kitchen was designed to be integrated with the living spaces. A raised counter provides a degree of separation, while high storage units allow a lateral sightline to run from both the living and dining areas. The bespoke kitchen has terrazzo and solid elm worktops; the original drawings are available for modernisation. A separate utility room leads off the kitchen to a passage that gives direct access to the garden and garage.
The large living room flows from this space and the roof's stained timber sloping pitch is most apparent, resulting in a wonderful feel of movement in the design. The sense of light and flow is further emphasised by full height sliding patio doors overlooking the beautiful garden and two further full height windows also providing incredible views. The brickwork is carried through to the raised hearth with a wood-burning stove. This whole wall is open brickwork to three quarter height providing depth and character.
The lovely dining room has a conventional flat plaster ceiling, but enjoys views of the soaring roof over the kitchen and living room area, offering a change of pace. A door leads to the bedroom corridor where all four of the double bedrooms can be accessed.
The principal bedroom has an en suite shower room and direct access onto the gorgeous south-facing patio and rear garden, this room is absolutely idyllic. Bedrooms two and three look out onto the front courtyard with views of the fishpond and bedroom four shares the rear garden views. The family bathroom is at the end of the corridor and also looks out onto the front courtyard.
There is plenty of storage throughout the house with a spacious accessible storage loft and two linen cupboards.
This beautiful ground floor level home provides a tremendous sense of character and flow. There is a feeling of warmth and friendliness throughout the entire home. With views of the gardens and courtyard from everywhere in the house you feel embraced by nature.
The house is set within two beautiful gardens, with mature trees, shrubs and expansive lawns. A handsome oak tree and two beech trees create a wonderful setting for the house and frame views from the living spaces.
The south-facing courtyard is perfect for al fresco dining and in addition there is a west facing summer house further down the garden, ideal for evening drinks.
Plenty of garden storage is available, located near a large vegetable plot and greenhouse at the bottom of the garden.
