Many retained character features
This beautifully maintained detached bungalow, retains many period features and has been extended to provide spacious living accommodation. A larger than average rear garden provides private space to enjoy the sunshine at all times of the day.
Brief description This two bedroomed detached bungalow is spacious in design, having been sympathetically extended and modernised in the past to provide generous living accommodation. Particularly attractive features of the property are the polished wooden and tiled floors throughout, original wooden internal doors and high ceilings. Should someone desire, there is the potential to extend further, with the property being situated towards the front of a larger than average plot (subject to appropriate planning consents and approvals).
Entered at the front via a porch, an original period door opens into the entrance hall having high level window which allows light to cascade into the property. The two double bedrooms are both front aspect rooms, one having built-in wardrobes to either side of the existing chimney breast (which features an attractive wood and tiled fireplace surround). The modern shower room is fully tiled, with a corner shower having sliding glass doors, close coupled WC and pedestal wash hand basin. Adjacent to the shower room are a useful airing cupboard (housing the modern gas combination boiler) and a further cloaks/storage cupboard. To the far end of the hallway, a door opens into the lounge, an airy and generously proportioned rectangular room, which benefits from a quirky porthole window to one wall. The modern stone fireplace surround houses a coal effect gas fire and blends seamlessly with the traditional features in the room, creating a focal point. French style patio doors open from the lounge into the conservatory, finished with a tiled floor and with wall mounted heaters, this is a perfect seating space to enjoy the garden throughout the year.
The L-shaped dining kitchen features an original brick inglenook fireplace with inset wood burning stove, having a beautiful glazed wooden storage unit built into the space adjacent to the chimney breast. The kitchen extension features modern, cream fronted, shaker style units of base and wall mounted cupboards and drawers, having contrasting worktops over with matching upstands. The range style cooker has a brushed stainless steel splashback, with matching chimney style extractor hood over. The kitchen includes an integrated dishwasher with space for a free standing fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble drier. Finished with a slate floor, this room remains bright with a large side aspect window and a part glazed courtesy door which opens directly to the rear garden.
Being immaculately presented and decorated in contemporary tones, this is a property which someone could move straight into.
Externally, the property is set back from the road with a herringbone design block paved driveway leading to the garage. The garage has an up/over door, courtesy door to the rear garden and two windows, which would make it ideal for a workshop space, if desired. The front garden is raised up from the road, behind a wall, being laid mainly to lawn, with specimen shrubs and neatly maintained hedging.
The fully enclosed rear garden can be accessed from either side of the property, via separate gates, and has been landscaped, mainly laid to lawn, with flagged patio seating space across the rear of the home. A raised side garden features a further seating area with wooden pergola over.
Location Situated in an established residential locality being conveniently placed for access to the market town of Wellington, which offers local shops, supermarkets, library, leisure centre, bus and railway stations. Wellington offers an excellent range of primary, secondary and college education facilities. Junction 6 of the M54 is approximately one mile distant and provides excellent commuting access to Telford Town Centre and the West Midlands Conurbation.
