The property

Nestled on an established crescent in the quiet residential suburb of Mountcastle, this classic 1920s detached bungalow represents an exceptionally spacious and versatile family home, complete with attractive private parking and vast gardens. Having retained an abundance of period charm and character, the bungalow is a prime renovation project with endless potential for internal reconfiguration and extension into the loft and/or to the rear. Set back from the road behind a front garden framed by box hedges, the bungalow instantly endears with its characteristic curved roofline and bow window. The original front door opens into a tiled entrance vestibule with storage, which flows into the inviting hall. On the left, the well-proportioned living room enjoys outstanding natural light courtesy of the front-facing bow window and at the heart of the space is an exquisite Art Deco fireplace. The good-sized kitchen adjacent is currently fitted with ample storage and workspace, and also incorporates two substantial pantry cupboards, one of which can be accessed from the generous dining room to the rear. This second reception room features another period fireplace and a bow window overlooking the rear garden, and would lend itself to various configurations. The property boasts two bright and spacious double bedrooms to the front and rear respectively, one of which is equipped with extensive built-in wardrobes and storage. Completing the accommodation is a hall cupboard and an airy three-piece bathroom, comprising a shower-over-bath, a pedestal basin and a WC. A glazed hatch in the hall allows access to the substantial loft, which offers tremendous potential for conversion into additional living space, subject to consents. The property is double glazed throughout for optimum comfort and efficiency all year round. Owing to its vast plot, the bungalow enjoys a large front garden and a sprawling south-facing garden to the rear, which would easily accommodate an extension or conservatory (subject to consents). The property also benefits from a generous single garage with garden access and a useful coal store, as well as a gated driveway with space for two vehicles. Extras: all fitted carpets and floor coverings, window coverings, light fixtures and white goods to be included in the sale; no warranty shall be provided for the appliances.
