This especially light and versatile space has a glazed roof and an abundance of windows, allowing natural light to fill the room. There is ample space for a dining table and additional occasional furniture, creating somewhere to dine, relax or simply sit and enjoy the outlook across the garden. French doors open directly outside, while internal patio doors create a lovely sense of flow into the sitting room.

The sitting room is a comfortable and well-proportioned reception room, with windows overlooking the garden and allowing natural light to fill the space. A Cotswold stone fireplace with a fitted gas fire creates a warm and traditional focal point, with ample room for a generous arrangement of sofas and occasional furniture. The connection with the garden/dining room allows the two spaces to work particularly well together, whether for quiet everyday living or when entertaining family and friends.

Generous work surfaces create an excellent preparation area, with tiled splashbacks completing the traditional finish.

An inner hallway has two useful storage cupboards and access to the loft, with doors leading to all three bedrooms and the shower room.

Accessories have been added to the shower room, the second bedroom has been shown furnished as a bedroom as it is currently used as a dining room, and a dining table has been added to the garden/dining room to demonstrate how the space could be arranged. No structural features or room dimensions have been altered.

The detached garage sits alongside the bungalow and is fitted with power, lighting and an electric roller shutter door, together with a separate pedestrian door providing access from the garden. Double doors open from the garage into the adjoining workshop, which has a window bringing in natural light. Together, the two spaces offer excellent flexibility for secure parking, storage, hobbies or practical use.The established gardens wrap around the bungalow, creating a wonderful sense of space, privacy and greenery. Rather than forming one formal area, the garden unfolds into a collection of individual spaces, each offering a slightly different outlook and atmosphere.

There are several convenient points of access between the bungalow and garden. French doors open directly from the garden/dining room onto the terrace, while the garden can also be reached from the glazed front entrance. A further entrance through the rear boot room/porch provides useful level access into the property.

Immediately outside the garden/dining room is a terrace, creating a natural extension of the living accommodation and an ideal setting for outdoor dining or a quiet morning coffee. Further paved and gravelled seating areas provide a choice of places to sit throughout the day, while pathways lead through areas of lawn and between mature borders.

The garden is filled with an established collection of trees, shrubs and perennial planting, providing height, structure and seasonal colour. A mature pond forms a peaceful focal point, surrounded by planting and creating a particularly tranquil corner of the garden. There are also raised beds and areas which could be brought back into use for growing flowers, herbs or vegetables.

A timber garden shed provides practical storage, while the mature boundaries create a good degree of seclusion. Although the gardens would now benefit from some attention, their scale, character and established planting provide the foundations for something truly special. For a keen gardener, there is wonderful scope to restore and enhance the different areas, creating what could become a truly magical garden.
