Denise White Estate Agents Comments

Situated in a highly sought-after position on Mount Road, on the outskirts of the town centre, this spacious split-level bungalow enjoys beautiful elevated views across the town to the front aspect. Offering predominantly single-storey living, generous accommodation and a private rear garden backing onto open fields, the property presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to downsize without compromising on space or location.

The accommodation is generally neutrally presented and offers a fantastic opportunity for the new owners to introduce their own style and make the property their own.

The property is approached via a shared access driveway, leading onto a private driveway providing ample parking for multiple vehicles and access to an integral double garage.

To the ground floor is a useful utility room and WC, together with internal access into the double garage. There are also useful storage facilities and a staircase leading up to the principal living accommodation.

The first floor is centred around a particularly impressive open-plan lounge and dining room. Dual-aspect windows flood the space with natural light, while sliding doors to the front open onto a balcony and frame the property's attractive elevated outlook across the town. This provides a wonderful setting to sit and enjoy the changing views throughout the seasons.

The dining area leads through to a conservatory at the rear, creating a further versatile space in which to relax and enjoy views over the garden. The adjoining kitchen is well presented and fitted with granite worktops, a useful built-in breakfast bar and a good range of storage. A pleasant outlook over the rear garden makes this a particularly enjoyable space for everyday living.

There are three good-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front of the property and benefits from the wonderful outlook, and built-in wardrobes while its generous proportions and abundance of natural light create a bright and airy retreat. The two remaining bedrooms are situated to the rear, both benefiting from built-in storage also and pleasant views over the garden.

All three bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

Externally, the property occupies a decent-sized plot with access to both sides. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped, initially comprising paved and tiered areas which create a series of attractive patio spaces, with steps leading up to a generous lawned garden beyond. The rear garden offers an exceptional degree of privacy, with open fields directly beyond, creating a peaceful backdrop and a wonderful sense of space. The combination of patio areas and lawn provides plenty of room for outdoor seating, entertaining and gardening.

Overall, this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a spacious split-level bungalow in a desirable and convenient location. With beautiful views, private gardens, ample parking and predominantly single-storey living, the property is particularly well suited to downsizers looking to remain close to the amenities of the town while enjoying a peaceful and private setting.
