Description
Looking for a peaceful retreat with gardens to relax, head over to Birch Close, you won’t be disappointed.
A rare opportunity to own one of just eight bungalows tucked away in this popular and peaceful cul-de-sac! Spacious, well maintained and offered with no onward chain, this attractive semi-detached bungalow combines comfortable single-level living with a private rear garden, conservatory, long driveway and detached garage.
Step inside and you are welcomed by an L-shaped hallway, providing access to all the principal rooms. The generous lounge is a lovely space to relax or entertain, with patio doors opening directly into the conservatory. Overlooking the wide and private rear garden, the conservatory creates a wonderful sense of space and brings plenty of natural light into the heart of the home.
The fitted kitchen offers a practical layout with space for appliances and a fitted cooker hood, while both bedrooms are comfortable doubles. Each benefits from built-in wardrobes, providing excellent storage while retaining plenty of floor space. The shower room is finished with floor-to-ceiling tiling and features a heated towel rail.
Outside, the property continues to impress. The long driveway provides ample off-road parking, while the detached garage offers useful additional storage or parking. To the rear, the wide and private garden provides a peaceful outdoor space to enjoy, with plenty of potential to make it your own. The garden extends to the side and wraps around the garage providing space for a shed and greenhouse.
With its thoughtfully designed layout, bright and airy feel and peaceful setting, this is a home that offers easy, low-maintenance living without compromising on space. Whether you are looking to downsize, enjoy retirement living or simply want the convenience of everything on one level, this bungalow is an excellent choice.
Properties like this rarely come to market, particularly with only a handful of similar homes within the cul-de-sac. Offered with no onward chain and ready to move straight into, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
Book your viewing today and discover just how much this charming bungalow has to offer.
