Description

Occupying a truly enviable position within the tranquil village of Basford, this beautifully extended two-bedroom bungalow enjoys breathtaking, unspoilt views across open countryside to both the front and rear.
Thoughtfully extended by the current owners, the home’s standout feature is the impressive orangery, a stunning addition with a large skylight that floods the space with natural light. Overlooking the garden, this elegant and versatile room has become the heart of the home, ideal for both relaxed family living and entertaining.
A charming entrance hallway welcomes you into the property, showcasing original feature beams dating back approximately 100 years, offering a wonderful sense of history and character. The bungalow offers two spacious double bedrooms, each enhanced by attractive feature fireplaces. There is further scope to extend into the loft space to create a 3rd bedroom/loft room (subject to any planning permission/building regulations required).
To the front of the property, the cosy yet refined lounge enjoys open views and centres around an inset multi-fuel burner, creating a warm and stylish retreat. The fully fitted kitchen is designed with both functionality and quality in mind, featuring a Rangemaster cooker with gas hob and electric oven, built-in dishwasher, full-length fridge and freezer, a corner pantry, and an array of wall and base units. A breakfast bar provides casual seating, perfect for everyday dining.
Additional practical space is provided by a separate utility room with plumbing for a washing machine, space for a dryer, and further storage units. A contemporary inner hallway offers a flexible area ideal for a study or home office.
The well-appointed family bathroom comprises a bath with handheld shower, separate walk-in shower, WC, and wash basin set within a stylish vanity unit.
Externally, the orangery opens onto a generous rear garden, mainly laid to lawn, complemented by a patio and pergola. Further seating at the far end of the garden creates multiple areas for entertaining while enjoying the peaceful rural setting. A double garage and driveway parking for several vehicles complete this exceptional home.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful yet refined bungalow in a picturesque village setting, offering privacy, space, and outstanding countryside views. The property also benefits from further potential to extend into the loft space, providing scope for a third bedroom or loft room, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
