Don't delay, view today!What the Owner says:"My sister needed a bungalow which didn't require too much attention to the gardens and this property suited her needs. The small patio areas to the back and side gave her the outside space without the ongoing maintenance. She also benefited from the flower borders to the front and vegetable patch. We particularly benefited from the double garage  when family came to stay and for storage. Capel is a lovely village. When I had the bungalow double glazed it really helped keep the gas bills down. I had the electrics checked and upgraded this summer."Room sizes:**GROUND FLOOR****Entrance Hall****Lounge**: 21'8 × 17'11 (6.61m × 5.46m) narrowing to 8'7 × 11'11 (2.62m × 3.63m)**Dining Room**: 12'9 × 11'4 (3.89m × 3.46m)**Kitchen**: 8'10 × 8'7 (2.69m × 2.62m)**Utility Room****Bedroom 1**: 12'9 × 9'11 (3.89m × 3.02m)**Bedroom 2**: 12'6 × 8'10 (3.81m × 2.69m)**Bathroom****OUTSIDE****Rear Patio****Side Garden****Front Garden****Detached Double Garage****Driveway**
