Description

Whitegates in Crewe are delighted to present this excellent two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, positioned within a quiet cul-de-sac in the highly sought-after area of Wistaston village. Occupying a generous plot, the property benefits from a wonderful private and southernly-facing rear garden with a pleasant aspect. A partially converted garage provides additional versatile space. Internally, the bungalow has been thoughtfully improved, including a side extension, giving a larger kitchen and utility area. A wall has been removed creating an open-plan kitchen/living room that has a spacious modern feel. Further upgrades include a modern bathroom, new rear windows, and stylish decoration throughout, offering well-presented, move-in-ready accommodation. For more information or to arrange a viewing, please contact Whitegates in Crewe.

Internally, the accommodation is well laid out and has been much improved by the current vendor. The property opens into a porch leading through to a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining/living area, creating a modern and sociable hub of the home. The kitchen has been extended to the side, providing additional workspace and a separate utility area with space for appliances.

An inner hallway gives access to two well-proportioned double bedrooms, along with a modern shower room. Bedroom Two benefits from patio doors. To the rear, the utility area provides further practical space with access to the garden.

A standout feature is the additional room created from the partial garage conversion, offering flexibility for home working or hobbies, while still retaining storage space within the remaining garage and a door allows internal access to the garage.

Further benefits include new rear windows, patio doors, re-plastering and stylish decoration throughout, with the property presented in a move-in-ready condition.

Externally, the property enjoys a private rear garden with a favourable southerly aspect, ideal for enjoying the sun throughout the day. There is space for a conservatory whilst still retaining a good size garden. A driveway provides good parking for multiple cars, and access to the garage.
