Description

Take a moment to view our signature, guide tour of this stunning bungalow, offered for sale with no onward chain in a wonderful part of the town!
A beautifully presented and significantly improved two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, occupying a highly sought-after residential position within easy reach of local amenities, Sandbach town centre, Sandbach Golf Club, and the surrounding Cheshire countryside.
Constructed by the highly regarded Price Brothers, the property offers spacious and well-balanced accommodation throughout, enhanced by a quality rear extension, attractive mature gardens, ample off-road parking, and a detached garage.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall providing practical storage space before leading into a generously proportioned bay-fronted lounge. This inviting reception room enjoys views over the front garden and is centred around a feature fireplace, creating an ideal space for relaxation and everyday living.
A separate formal dining room provides excellent space for entertaining and family dining, whilst also offering potential for reconfiguration with the adjacent kitchen, subject to any necessary consents. The extended kitchen has been thoughtfully designed and fitted with an attractive range of timeless shaker-style units, extensive work surfaces, integrated appliances including a Bosch oven and Electrolux hob, and enjoys an abundance of natural light from windows to multiple elevations overlooking the rear garden.
An inner hallway provides access to the bedroom accommodation and the refitted shower room. The principal bedroom is a spacious double room, tastefully decorated and benefitting from patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden. The second bedroom is a versatile room suitable for a variety of uses including guest accommodation, a home office or hobby room and is complemented by useful built-in storage.
The accommodation is completed by a stylish and contemporary shower room, fitted with a large quadrant shower enclosure, quality sanitaryware, attractive tiling, and modern fittings throughout.
Externally, the property enjoys particularly well-maintained gardens. The front garden is attractively landscaped and enhances the property's excellent kerb appeal, whilst a long driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the detached garage. The private rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged to create a peaceful outdoor environment, featuring a block-paved seating terrace adjoining the property, a well-kept lawn, established stocked borders, additional seating areas, and a useful garden shed. The detached garage benefits from power and lighting, providing excellent storage, workshop potential, or secure parking.
Offering a combination of quality accommodation, excellent presentation, and a highly desirable location, this exceptional bungalow represents a rare opportunity within a particularly popular area of Sandbach. Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate all that this property has to offer.
