Spacious And Secluded Detached Bungalow With Versatile Layout And Expansive Gardens With Wonderful Views Across The North Downs
Tucked away in a truly private position, this unique detached bungalow offers over 1400 square feet of flexible accommodation, set within generous wraparound gardens. Originally built in the 1960's and thoughtfully extended over the years, the property now presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to create their ideal home in a rare and tranquil setting.
Offered to the market with no forward chain and in need of modernisation throughout, this distinctive home would suit families seeking multi-generational living, those looking for annexe potential, or anyone wanting a single-storey home with plenty of space, privacy, and future potential.
The main part of the bungalow comprises two double bedrooms, a spacious lounge, and an open plan kitchen and dining area. A separate family bathroom and an additional WC add convenience, while a utility room to the side provides further functionality for everyday living.
The extended section of the property offers a wealth of possibilities. Currently arranged with two additional bedrooms, a sitting room, a separate kitchen, and a dining room, it can easily function as a self-contained annexe, perfect for guests, older relatives, or even as a rental or workspace, subject to necessary consents. Alternatively, it can be seamlessly incorporated into the main living space to create a four bedroom family home.
Outside, the property is approached via a long, gated private driveway offering ample parking for multiple vehicles. The surrounding gardens are expansive and wrap around the entire bungalow, providing lawned areas, mature trees, and space for landscaping, entertaining, or future extensions, subject to planning. The setting is exceptionally quiet and private, offering a peaceful retreat that is rarely found so close to local amenities.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a generously sized, detached bungalow in a truly special location. With its versatile layout, huge potential, and secluded setting, this home offers the perfect canvas for buyers to create something truly bespoke.
