IN SUMMARY Guide Price £550,000 - £575,000. Located within the QUIET SEMI RURAL village of THORPE ABBOTTS close to DISS & HARLESTON you will find this IMPRESSIVE DETACHED BUNGALOW measuring approximately 2300 SQ FT (stms) offering extremely FLEXIBLE ACCOMMODATION. The position of the bungalow is wonderful backing onto OPEN FIELDS giving a real sense of rural living. Internally, the property was previously configured with a separate ANNEXE and could easily accommodate this once again. Currently, you will find FOUR/FIVE DOUBLE BEDROOMS with one located in the first floor eaves, TWO BATHROOMS and a W/C, TWO/THREE MAIN RECEPTIONS, a lovely GARDEN ROOM and a WELL FITTED KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM with UTILITY. Externally, the mature plot measures approximately 0.3 ACRES (stms) and offers an 'in and out' driveway and Single garage, DOUBLE GARAGE with adjoining workshop as well as PLEASANT LAWNS. The property also benefits from SOLAR PANELS producing a healthy income.  

SETTING THE SCENE The property is approached via an 'in and out' driveway which is hard standing providing ample off road parking for a number of vehicles as well as a front lawned garden, timber fencing and hedging. There is then shingled access down the side of the property leading to the double garage and workshop at the rear. You will find the main covered access to the front from the driveway.  

THE GRAND TOUR Entering the property from the main entrance door to the front, you will find the main entrance porch and hallway with multiple built in storage cupboards and access to the first floor bedroom. The first room on the left is a comfortable double bedroom overlooking the front. There are then stairs leading to the first floor bedroom in the eaves again with access to very useful built in storage. Coming down to the ground floor again you will then find the family bathroom with shower over bath and built in storage and then another double bedroom adjacent. There is also a separate w/c. To the end of the corridor you will find the kitchen/breakfast room which has been well fitted with wooden worksurfaces and space for a double range style oven with extractor fan over and sliding doors leading into the garden room. Accessed from the kitchen is the walk in pantry/utility which houses space for all the white goods. The garden room to the rear opens onto the garden with double doors and provides a lovely space to enjoy all year round. Leading back up the main corridor to the front of the property you will find the impressive main sitting room with open feature fireplace and double doors leading into the dining room. The dining room is an equally impressive room with sliding doors to the front. This room could be used as the siting room should you wish to separate the accommodation with a separate annexe. The dining room then leads to another corridor giving access to the main bedrooms with built in wardrobes, a well fitted shower room with double rainfall shower and an office/study (previously used as a kitchen for the annexe). The property offers very flexible accommodation which could suit a number of different layouts and uses and benefits from uPVC double glazing and oil fired central heating.  

THE GREAT OUTDOORS The wonderful rear garden is generous in size and benefits from backing directly onto open fields behind. The garden is a mature and well kept space with a large tree located relatively centrally providing much needed shade in the summer time but also a haven for wildlife and birds. The garden is extensive and mainly laid to lawn having been well planted to present a well-established setting with an abundance of trees, plants and shrubs as well as rockery. There is a brick weave pathway running from the rear of the property to the to the rear of the garden also and access to both the single garage and double garage with additional attached timber workshop. The double garage has power and light, electric roller doors and plenty of storage above.
