Description
A modern detached bungalow which has been extensively upgraded by the current owners and is offered in excellent decorative order in the most idyllic of positions.
Situated down a quiet walkway when sitting in the garden you could hear a pin drop and could be in the middle of the countryside, teaming with wildlife, birdsong etc. The bungalow and gardens are completely unoverlooked from the front, side and rear.
Within the bungalow is a 15'4 x 11'11 lounge/diner which is double aspect facing both east and south making it a very sunny and bright room for a good part of the day a woodburner on a large slate hearth has been installed for the burning of kiln dried logs.
The kitchen has been completely refitted with a virtually brand new Wickes kitchen which was only installed in November 2022 and has a wealth of integrated appliances to remain. These include a pull out bin drawer, a dishwasher, a washing machine, a double oven/microwave, electric hob and Zanussi extractor hood over plus fridge/freezer and Karndean flooring.
Summary Continued - There are two double size bedrooms both with large built-in double wardrobes and there are also two good size storage cupboards accessed from the reception hallway.
There is a modern replacement walk-in wetroom with shower, W.C. and wash hand-basin plus room for the reinstallation of a bath if required. The current owners have installed modern electric panel heaters throughout.
Immediately outside the kitchen door are three brick built storage sheds one of which is a workshop supplied with light and power and fitted out with shelving which will remain. The current owners have had visual plans drawn up for an extension which knocks through from the kitchen into these outhouses which would create a beautiful open plan kitchen dining area. This would be subject to the requirement of any necessary building and planning regulations.
The whole property is presented in excellent decor with UPVC double glazed windows and doors throughout (approximately 8 years old) plus replacement fascias and soffits. The property has been redecorated and there is cavity wall insulation installed.
Conveniently positioned in this highly sought after part of Melton you only have a 5 minute walk to Melton Railway Station which has a 6 minute rail journey to Woodbridge Railway Station. Additionally the station at Woodbridge and Woodbridge town centre is less than half an hours walk away. There are bus stops at the end of the road which in various directions go into Woodbridge, Martlesham Heath and Ipswich. There also buses out into the Rendlesham direction and Saxmundham direction.
Melton has a good selection of facilities which includes an active social scene surrounding the church and chapel, the local Burness rooms offer yoga and drama classes.
The delights of Rendlesham Forest are ideal for dog walkers, mountain bikers etc and is virtually on your doorstep as is Woodbridge Golf Club.
There is a selection of local shops at Melton including a fish and chip shop which the valuer can thoroughly recommend.
To find such a delightful bungalow having been upgraded to this extent in the most secluded of positions is a rare commodity indeed and we thoroughly recommend an early internal inspection.
Front Garden - The gardens which have been well maintained and extensively enhanced by the current owners offer a delight of colour and variety and are a haven for wildlife.
The bungalow is situated away from the road down a walkway and the front garden has a low brick wall with well stocked flower/shrub borders and lawn. A pedestrian pathway leads down the side of the bungalow to the front entrance door. On the right hand side of the bungalow in the front garden is a 12' x 6' timber shed which is to remain is enclosed by panel fencing with trellising on top.
Entrance Hallway - Access from part glazed front entrance door with fitted airing cupboard and additional fitted storage cupboard and access to insulated loft.
Lounge/Diner - 4.6818 x 3.6550 (15'4" x 11'11") - A delightful double aspect east and southerly facing lounge which gets sunshine for virtually the whole day making this a very nice bright and sunny room. The vendors have redecorated this room plus there has been the installation of a wood burner on a large slate hearth making this room extremely warm and cosy on cold winter nights. To help with that is a modern electric panel heater, double glazed window to rear and part glazed French door opening out onto the garden and also a double glazed window to the side (south). Both windows are unoverlooked.
Kitchen - 4.9614 x 2.7329 (16'3" x 8'11") - Good size kitchen with virtually brand new fitted Wickes fitted units. The entire kitchen was only fitted November 2022 and the kitchen was rewired at the same time. There is an extensive range of fitted units comprising soft close base drawers, cupboards and eye level units plus many integrated appliances including bin, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer, double oven/microwave, Zanussi extractor hood over electric hob, with generous extra wide work-surfaces, one and a half bowl sink unit, Karndean flooring, recess ceiling spotlights, bottle rack, window to rear (east) making this a very sunny and pleasant room especially in the mornings plus additional window to side and part glazed door to side and wall mounted panel heater.
Bedroom One - 3.7246 x 3.3199 (12'2" x 10'10") - Good size double bedroom which has been redecorated including electric panel heater, window to front plus door to generous double size built-in wardrobe with shelving.
Bedroom Two - 3.7189 x 2.3363 (12'2" x 7'7") - Another double size bedroom, currently used as a craft room, wall mounted panel heater and double glazed window to front plus door to generous double size built-in wardrobe with shelving.
Shower Room/Wetroom - 2.247 x 2.0924 (7'4" x 6'10") - With fully tiled walls, low level W.C., wash hand-basin, wall mounted shower, extractor fan, panel heater, new extractor fan and window to side.
Outbuildings - To the side/rear of the bungalow are three brick built outbuildings. The bigger of these is kitted out as a workshop, supplied with light and power and fitted shelving which we understand is to remain. The other two are ideal for log storage, storage of garden equipment etc. The vendors have had visual plans for the potential for an extension for the kitchen to the outbuildings to form a very nice open plan kitchen with a separate dining area.
Any potential interested parties are welcome to have a look at the visual plans which the owners will leave out in the kitchen.
Rear Garden - The rear garden is an absolute delight with a large patio with inset circular design under a wooden pergola and this is an absolute sun trap throughout the day, completely sheltered and secluded. There are further areas of flower/shrub borders, a fishpond with power and waterfall feature, additional crazy paved seating area, further timber potting shed, water butts, outside lighting, two outside taps, further area of lawn and panel fencing at the rear. There is an apple tree, plum tree, and pear tree and a magnolia that some years flowers twice. The garden and the position of the bungalow is without doubt one of the major selling points.
