Highly sought after position close to countryside - new boiler November 2022 - UPVC double glazed windows - bathroom with new shower fitted 2022 - 58' driveway parking for four to five vehicles plus 25' garage with power & light & remote up & over door - two double size bedrooms - 17'1 X 12'1 front to back lounge / diner plus 34'6 X 5'11 sunroom / utility - boarded loft room with window - 48' X 38' westerly facing rear garden unoverlooked from the rear - no chain involved
This bungalow is situated in a highly sought after cul-de-sac position literally forty yards from footpaths and bridle paths that lead down to the beautiful countryside of the Fynn Valley. From here walks can go in one direction to Tuddenham in the other direction to Playford making this absolutely ideal for anyone who has dogs, children, likes mountain biking or rambling.
At the same time the bungalow is only a ten minute drive to Ipswich hospital and a good selection of local shops, Co-op supermarket and petrol station.
The property is being sold with no onward chain and benefits from a new replacement boiler that was only installed in November 2022 with a gas fired central heating system.
There is a bathroom with a shower which was fitted in 2022 and a virtually brand new gas fire in the lounge.
The bungalow has many selling features including a much longer than average garage at 25' with a remote controlled up and over door, supplied with power and light making it ideal for anyone who could use it as a workshop or who has motorbikes etc.
In addition to this the bungalow at the rear has one of the largest sunrooms that we have seen in recent times running the full width of the bungalow and thus benefitting from the westerly facing aspect making it extremely sunny and pleasant in the afternoons. The sunroom doubles as a utility room with plumbing for a washing machine etc.
Summary Continued
There is a front to back 17'1 x 12' lounge/diner and two double size bedrooms in addition to the family bathroom.
Furthermore with access from the entrance hallway is a full width loft space two thirds of which had been boarded, carpeted and already has a window so this offers a number of additional uses. The bungalow itself also offers potential for further conversion or extension subject to any necessary planning or building control regulation consents.
The rear garden is delightful being westerly facing with a patio area which is a real suntrap for most of the day. It is relatively low maintenance and courtesy of a number of very established conifers, trees and shrubs offer seclusion from the rear.
At front of the bungalow very long driveway which widens at the top provides off street parking for at least four to five vehicles. The front garden itself is also screened courtesy of established trees.
This is the first time the property has been on the market for forty years and we have no doubt will be in big demand.
Front Garden (17.68m (58))
A long driveway providing parking for up to five vehicles. The front garden is largely laid to lawn with an established oak tree and beech tree which helps to provide screening to the front. There are a number of very well stocked flower/shrub borders including rhododendrons, conifers and bulbs coming through.

The south easterly side of the loft has been two thirds boarded, has its own light and has been converted to an extra room which has been carpeted and plastered with a maximum height of approximately 5'3 and would make an ideal games room etc. It also lends potential for creating additional accommodation in the form of a loft conversion subject to all the necessary planning and building control regulations. The other half of the loft provides additional storage space.
