2 bedroom semi-detached bungalow for sale

Potential, potential, potential! A semi detached true bungalow in the heart of the highly sought after residential neighbourhood of Bare.

Currently the property benefits from an entrance vestibule, a hallway that provides central access to all rooms, great sized living room, a kitchen with access into the boot room. There is a shower room and two double bedrooms, one of which benefits from a fitted wardrobe.

The paved front garden is the ideal place for a bench to watch the world go by and the driveway provides off road parking. The driveway also leads you to the detached garage. The enclosed landscaped flagged rear garden is a good size and is ideal for privacy.

The property overall benefits from gas central heating and uPVC double glazing.

Location

Apart from offering a quiet and peaceful residential neighbourhood, the beauty of Chestnut Drive is the ease of accessibility from a number of directions; from here it’s a level walk into Bare where you’ll find a host of local services and shops on the attractive Princes Crescent as well as a choice of pubs and cafes for a drink or bite to eat.
