## Description

Situated in the Lach Dennis area, this detached true bungalow enjoys an attractive semi-rural position, yet remains conveniently placed for access to Northwich, Knutsford, Holmes Chapel and the surrounding Cheshire countryside. The property is particularly well positioned for commuters, with excellent road links providing access towards the M6, M56 and wider motorway network, whilst Northwich town centre and its extensive range of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and everyday amenities are also within easy reach.

Lach Dennis offers a peaceful village-style setting surrounded by open countryside, making this an ideal location for those looking to enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle without being isolated from the facilities and transport links of the nearby towns. The property itself benefits from open farmland immediately to the rear, creating a wonderful sense of space and privacy.

Offered for sale with NO ONWARD CHAIN, the bungalow occupies a great-sized plot and is approached via a generous driveway providing off-road parking for a number of vehicles. To the rear is a particularly good-sized enclosed garden, enjoying fantastic open views across the surrounding countryside.

Internally, the accommodation offers excellent versatility and currently comprises an entrance hall, good-sized lounge, kitchen, rear hall with WC and an additional reception room. There are three well-proportioned bedrooms together with a family bathroom.

A particularly useful feature is the significant loft space, accessed directly from the hallway via a staircase and benefiting from Velux skylights. This provides excellent potential for storage and could offer scope for further use, subject to any necessary permissions.

A rare opportunity to acquire a detached bungalow in a peaceful semi-rural setting, with generous outside space, three bedrooms, open countryside views and the added benefit of NO CHAIN.
