A bungalow, completely reimagined

The Bespoke Estate Agent | Powered by eXp is delighted to present this exceptional three double bedroom detached bungalow, substantially extended and comprehensively refurbished to create a genuinely impressive contemporary home.

Commanding an elevated position with attractive views to the front and enjoying a wonderful open countryside backdrop to the rear, this is far removed from the conventional bungalow.

Behind the established frontage is an essentially brand-new interior, with superb attention paid to specification, layout and finish. The centrepiece is undoubtedly the remarkable open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, where a large architectural rooflight and twin sets of bi-folding doors flood the space with natural light and connect the house beautifully with the landscaped garden.

Add three double bedrooms, two beautifully finished bathrooms, a separate utility room, generous driveway, garage and no upward chain, and the result is a home with very broad appeal.

Perfect for those looking to retire or downsize without sacrificing entertaining space, equally suited to a family wanting flexible single-storey living, and ideal for anyone searching for something considerably more individual.

the property

There are refurbished bungalows, and then there are properties where the original house has effectively been taken apart, reconsidered and rebuilt around the way people actually want to live today.

This home sits firmly in the latter category.

The accommodation has undergone an extensive programme of improvement including rewiring, new gas central heating, new plumbing, uPVC double glazing, Oak veneer internal doors, new flooring and complete redecoration throughout.

The substantial extension has transformed the rear of the property into an outstanding lifestyle space, while the remainder of the bungalow retains the practicality and accessibility that make single-storey living so desirable.

The interior is crisp and contemporary but avoids feeling clinical, with timber finishes, neutral tones and strong architectural features bringing warmth and character throughout.

Reception hall
The property is entered through a contemporary composite entrance door into a generous reception hall.

A feature rooflight introduces natural light from above, while Oak veneer doors provide an attractive contrast against the fresh décor.

The hall forms a central spine through the bungalow, linking the bedrooms, bathrooms and principal reception areas.

The floorplan indicates approximately 14.6 sq m / 157 sq ft of hallway and circulation space, highlighting just how generous the overall proportions are.

Front living room
Approximately 5.56m x 3.60m
18'3" x 11'10"
Approx. 17.5 sq m / 188 sq ft
A substantial separate reception room positioned at the front of the bungalow.

The large window takes advantage of the home's elevated position and provides an attractive outlook across the surrounding area.

There is plenty of space for substantial lounge furniture, while the contemporary electric fire creates a natural focal point.

For a home with such a spectacular open-plan family room, having a completely separate formal lounge is a real luxury. It provides somewhere quieter to retreat to in the evening without compromising the main entertaining space.

The showstopper
open-plan kitchen / dining / family room
Approximately 34.4 sq m / 370 sq ft
Maximum overall dimensions approximately 7.45m x 5.83m
24'5" x 19'2"
The room is irregular in shape, therefore the above linear measurements represent approximate maximum dimensions.

This is the space that completely changes the character of the property.

Created as part of the substantial rear extension, the open-plan kitchen, dining and family room has been designed to provide one large social environment rather than three disconnected spaces.

A dramatic rooflight pours daylight into the centre of the room, while two sets of bi-folding doors can be opened to connect the interior directly with the landscaped rear garden.

In warmer weather, the entire corner of the extension can effectively disappear.

The result is a fabulous indoor-outdoor entertaining environment with the kitchen at its heart, family seating to one side, dining space to another and the garden beyond.

It is bold architecture, but importantly, it is also incredibly usable.

Bespoke kitchen
The contemporary kitchen features a substantial range of stylish grey cabinetry, complemented by warm solid timber worktops and contrasting finishes.

Integrated appliances include:

Induction hob
Contemporary extractor
Built-in oven
Integrated microwave
Fridge/freezer
Dishwasher
The generous central island provides additional preparation and storage space and is finished with a contrasting quartz work surface incorporating a solid-surface sink and contemporary tap.

An adjoining substantial solid timber breakfast bar creates seating for casual dining and entertaining, with feature pendant lighting positioned above.

The combination of grey cabinetry, timber, quartz and black detailing gives the kitchen a smart architectural appearance without feeling overly formal.

Dining & family area
Beyond the kitchen is generous space for both a full dining table and a substantial family seating arrangement.

This allows the open-plan area to operate as the everyday heart of the house.

Morning coffee under the rooflight, family dinners around the table, evenings with the bi-folds open or larger gatherings spilling onto the garden and deck: The room has been designed to accommodate all of it.

Utility / laundry room
Approx. 4.0 sq m / 43 sq ft
A particularly useful separate utility room fitted with coordinating cabinetry and work surfaces.

There is provision for laundry appliances together with useful additional storage, allowing the principal kitchen to remain clean and uncluttered.

For anyone who actually uses their kitchen rather than simply photographs it, this is a very welcome addition.

Bedroom one
Approximately 3.91m x 3.15m
12'10" x 10'4"
Approx. 12.3 sq m / 132 sq ft
A beautifully proportioned principal bedroom with generous space for a double or king-size bed together with substantial freestanding bedroom furniture.

The neutral décor and soft carpeting continue the calm contemporary theme found throughout the property.

The principal bedroom also benefits from its own private en-suite shower room.

En-suite shower room
Approx. 3.4 sq m / 37 sq ft
Finished to an impressive standard with contemporary tiling and contrasting fittings.

The suite includes a shower enclosure with rainfall-style shower, vanity wash basin with storage and WC.

The modern monochrome finish creates a smart, boutique-hotel feel while remaining practical for everyday use.

Bedroom two
Approximately 3.30m x 2.70m
10'10" x 8'10"
Approx. 8.9 sq m / 96 sq ft
A second well-proportioned bedroom with good natural light and space for a double bed together with additional furniture.

Ideal as a permanent bedroom, guest room or sophisticated dressing room depending upon individual requirements.

Bedroom three
Approximately 3.20m x 2.38m
10'6" x 7'10"
Floorplan area approximately 8.6 sq m / 93 sq ft
The third bedroom provides further flexible accommodation and is suitable for use as a bedroom, guest room or substantial home office.

One of the strengths of this bungalow is that the secondary bedrooms have not been sacrificed in order to create the extended living accommodation.

Luxury family bathroom
Approx. 3.0 sq m / 32 sq ft
The main bathroom continues the high specification of the property.

Contemporary marble-effect tiling is combined with contrasting fittings to create a clean and luxurious finish.

The suite includes a bath with rainfall-style shower, glazed shower screen, vanity wash basin and WC.

A feature rooflight introduces natural daylight from above and adds another architectural detail to what is already a particularly impressive bathroom.

Outside
frontage & driveway
The property is set back from the road behind a substantial gravelled driveway, providing excellent off-road parking for several vehicles.

Raised planters and landscaped areas add definition to the frontage, while the driveway continues alongside the bungalow and provides access to the garage.

Its elevated position is immediately apparent and contributes to the attractive outlook enjoyed from the front accommodation.

Garage
Approximately 5.45m x 2.30m
17'11" x 7'7"
Approx. 12.5 sq m / 135 sq ft
A useful garage providing secure storage and additional practical space.

The generous driveway in front means the garage does not need to provide the property's sole parking provision, giving owners considerable flexibility over how it is used.

Private landscaped rear garden
The rear garden has been landscaped to complement the contemporary extension rather than compete with it.

Features include:

Timber decking
Fine decorative gravel
Wood-chip landscaped areas
Raised timber borders and planters
Gated side access
Outdoor electrical points
Internally controlled external power
Excellent connection with the open-plan family room
The garden enjoys a particularly attractive backdrop towards open countryside and fields, helping to create a private setting despite the property's convenient residential location.

With the bi-folding doors fully opened, the garden and family room effectively become one large entertaining environment.

Location
The property occupies a highly convenient position whilst retaining easy access to surrounding countryside.

Everyday shops and services are available around nearby Lawnswood Road, together with public transport connections and access to local schooling.

Both Kingswinford and Stourbridge town centres are readily accessible, providing a much broader range of retail, leisure and hospitality facilities.

The nearby A449 provides straightforward road connections towards Kidderminster, Wolverhampton and the wider West Midlands road network.

It is an appealing combination: Everyday convenience in one direction and open countryside in the other.
