Description
Set within a peaceful rural position and enjoying uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside, Blythe View offers a lifestyle that many dream of but few are fortunate enough to find. Whether it's enjoying your morning coffee overlooking the fields, entertaining family and friends in the stunning open-plan kitchen, or simply unwinding in the tranquillity of the garden, this beautifully extended detached bungalow is a home designed to be enjoyed.
Thoughtfully extended and significantly improved by the current owners, the property combines the charm and character of countryside living with the comforts of modern-day family life. Light-filled living spaces, generous accommodation and a wonderful connection to the outdoors create a home that feels both welcoming and practical in equal measure.
Stepping inside, the spacious entrance hall provides an immediate sense of warmth and quality, setting the tone for what lies beyond.
The lounge is a room made for relaxing. Centred around an impressive inglenook fireplace, it offers a cosy retreat during the colder months, whilst French doors open into the conservatory, allowing the garden and countryside views to become part of everyday life.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the stunning open-plan kitchen/diner. Designed with both family living and entertaining in mind, this impressive space is flooded with natural light thanks to the vaulted ceiling and striking gable-end window. Whether hosting friends, gathering around the breakfast bar, or simply enjoying everyday meals with the family, this is a room where memories are made.
The adjoining utility room keeps the practicalities of daily life neatly tucked away, whilst the additional shower room provides valuable flexibility for busy households and visiting guests alike.
Positioned just off the kitchen is a versatile study, ideal for those working from home, pursuing hobbies, or requiring a quiet space away from the main living areas.
The bedroom accommodation continues the home's sense of comfort and practicality, with three well-proportioned bedrooms served by a beautifully refitted contemporary bathroom.
Outside is where Blythe View truly comes into its own. The generous rear garden provides plenty of space for children to play, summer gatherings with family and friends, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. Beyond the garden, the stunning open field views create a wonderful sense of space and privacy, offering an ever-changing backdrop throughout the seasons. Whether enjoying a morning coffee on the patio, entertaining guests, or simply taking in the surrounding countryside, the outdoor space provides a peaceful setting in which to relax and unwind.To the front, a gated block paved driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles together with access to the detached garage, which benefits from power and lighting.
Combining modern living, stunning open countryside views and a peaceful rural setting, Blythe View offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds — a home that feels a world away from the hustle and bustle, whilst remaining conveniently placed for local amenities, schools and commuter links.
