3 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

This character detached bungalow is set back and elevated from the street, providing scenic views over Whyteleafe valley to Warlingham. The convenient location provides easy walking access to Whyteleafe and Upper Warlingham stations, to local shops, and to Whyteleafe primary school.

The property internally retains a selection of heritage features. The formal entry way opens into a flowing hall. To the left, double glazed doors open to a large bright lounge with feature bay window with views. To the right, a secondary hall gives access to a large bright master bedroom, also with feature bay window and views. To the rear of the master is a large second bedroom, an adjacent tiled bathroom fitted with shower and bath, and adjacent a third bedroom ideal as a nursery or study to the master. Within the secondary hall is a laundry cupboard, and access via pull-down ladder to a generously-insulated partly boarded loft. Passing back past the lounge there is a south-facing dining room, which can alternatively serve as a large fourth bedroom or has potential, subject to planning, to knock through to the kitchen. This dining room has double glass external doors to a side patio, which has views to Caterham and is ideal for sunny breakfasts and summer BBQs. The kitchen is located to the rear of the property, and is fitted with gas cooker, washing machine and connections for dishwasher.

The rear kitchen door opens into a conservatory, with outbuildings to its rear and to a courtyard to its side.
The conservatory has potential to be renovated to become a feature of this property.

Explorers large, little and waggy-tailed will delight in exploring the sloping gardens, which are generously-sized, with grassy terraces dotted with shrubs, garden beds, mature trees including many fruit trees, and veggie patch. There is direct rear garden access to Kenley Common Nature Reserve, with its many walking trails. The property has a garage at street level.

Within the property, most windows are fitted with UVPC double glazing. Rear and side walls to the northwest are fitted with insulative cladding. A new gas boiler was installed in 2023.

The property, while very liveable at present, presents an ideal opportunity for those looking to value-add their own personal touches while benefiting from a location convenient to local amenities.
