Description
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall with three useful built in storage cupboards, which provides access to the principal rooms. At the heart of the home is the generous living/dining room, a light and inviting reception space with two large windows allowing plenty of natural light to enter. There is ample room for both comfortable seating and a dining table, while wood-effect flooring and a feature fireplace add to the character of the room.
The modern fitted kitchen is arranged around three sides and features an extensive range of sleek high-gloss units, providing excellent cupboard and worktop space. Contrasting surfaces and a colourful tiled splashback create a stylish finish, complemented by an integrated Samsung oven, gas hob and extractor hood.
There are two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom providing ample room for a double bed and additional furniture. The second bedroom offers useful versatility and could equally suit use as a guest room, hobby space or home office. Completing the accommodation is an attractively appointed shower room, finished with stone-effect tiling and featuring a generous glazed shower enclosure, vanity wash basin, WC, illuminated mirror and contemporary radiator.
Outside, the bungalow enjoys a neat, low-maintenance artificial lawn, with a paved driveway providing off-road parking, an EV charger and access to the detached garage with an electric roller door. To the rear is an enclosed garden designed with ease of upkeep in mind, featuring a further broad artificial lawn providing plenty of space for seating and relaxation and a useful shed for storage. Planted borders, established shrubs and colourful pots add interest, creating an enjoyable outdoor area without the demands of a traditional lawn.
The location provides an appealing balance between town convenience and access to the outdoors, with a nearby nature reserve and riverside walks offering the opportunity to enjoy the surrounding natural environment. Combining generous accommodation, modern appointments, manageable gardens, driveway parking and a garage, this attractive detached bungalow is an excellent opportunity for anyone seeking single-storey living in Market Drayton. Early viewing is highly recommended.
