2 bedroom bungalow for sale

The Dell is a very attractive and superbly positioned 2 Bedroom detached bungalow, occupying a slightly sunken and wonderfully private setting within the highly sought-after Glen Gardens, close to the heart of Bideford. Properties within this established and well-regarded cul-de-sac rarely become available for sale, which speaks volumes about how much residents enjoy living here. The property is offered to the market with the distinct advantage of no onward chain, allowing for a smooth and straightforward move.

To the front of the property there is brick-paved off-road parking for 2-3 vehicles, which, in turn, leads to the Garage. Steps descend from the driveway down to the bungalow itself, enhancing the feeling of privacy and seclusion. Either side of the steps are beautifully maintained and well-established formal gardens, creating an immediate impression of care and character on approach. A side gate provides access around to the rear garden.

A double glazed front door opens into a bright and spacious L-shaped Entrance Hall which provides hatch access to the loft and access to an airing cupboard housing the gas fired combination boiler. The Living Room is a generous and light-filled rectangular space with a UPVC double glazed window to the front and an additional double glazed window to the side. A particular focal point of the room is the multi-fuel stove set within a stone chimney breast, complemented by surrounding wooden cabinetry and an attractive mantle, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. An opening leads through to the Dining Room.

The Dining Room is a superb additional reception space, featuring a large picture window that perfectly frames the beautifully presented rear garden, allowing it to be enjoyed throughout the seasons. French doors provide direct access outside, making this an ideal room for entertaining or relaxed dining while feeling connected to the garden.

The Kitchen is centrally positioned within the bungalow and fitted with a range of eye and base level cabinets with matching drawers. There is space for a breakfast table, along with a built-in 4-ring gas hob and built-in double oven. Included within the sale are the under-counter fridge and freezer, as well as a built-in dishwasher and washing machine.

The Main Bedroom is a spacious double room overlooking the rear garden through an attractive picture window. It benefits from extensive fitted wardrobes, including wardrobes surrounding the bed and a built-in dressing table. The second Bedroom, slightly smaller in size, features a double glazed window to the front and similarly enjoys built-in wardrobes, cupboards and fitted drawers. The Bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with a panelled bath with mains shower over, a WC with dual flush and a cabinet-mounted wash hand basin.

The true standout feature of The Dell is the fully enclosed and exceptionally well-presented rear garden. Clearly the subject of many years of careful cultivation and thoughtful design, it feels private, established and beautifully maintained throughout. Immediately accessed from the dining room is a large patio area, complete with outside lighting and a tap, providing a wonderful space to sit out and relax. This leads around to a charming, crazy-paved seating area with a central ornamental pond creating an attractive focal point.

To the rear of the garden stands a substantial Outbuilding currently arranged as an occasional bedroom with an adjoining shower room. Measuring approximately 8’8 x 10’10, it benefits from power, light, built-in cupboards and a double glazed window overlooking the garden. This versatile space could serve as a hobby room, studio or guest accommodation, as required. Steps rise gently from the lower garden to a summerhouse positioned at an elevated point, offering a delightful vantage position from which to admire the planting and layout. A paved pathway continues to a further outside storage shed, and several water butts are positioned around the garden.

The planting scheme is extensive and varied, with a tremendous range of established plants, flowers and shrubs complemented by attractive ornamental trees providing colour and structure throughout the seasons. At the top of the garden, to the rear of the garage, there is a further patio area creating yet another unique viewpoint across this wonderful outdoor space. From here, there is access to the rear of the Garage, which measures approximately 17’3 x 8’5 and benefits from power, light and water connections.

The Dell is, therefore, a rare opportunity to acquire a detached bungalow in one of Bideford’s most desirable residential settings, combining privacy, parking, versatility and a truly exceptional garden.
