Description
A spacious, detached bungalow providing versatile accommodation, prime for upgrading, on a good-sized plot in the highly regarded village of Houghton on the Hill.
Location - Houghton lies seven miles east of Leicester and enjoys a strong community spirit. Unusually for a village of this size, it offers a wide range of local amenities including a store, post office, hair salon, pharmacy, parish church, two pubs and a primary school and is surrounded by some of the county's most attractive rolling countryside.
Accommodation - A porch and uPVC front door lead into an entrance hall housing a built-in airing cupboard and separate cloaks cupboard. To the left off the hallway through a glazed and wooden door is double bedroom three (possible office or snug) with a window to the side elevation. To the right, opposite is bedroom two, another double room with a full height floor-to-ceiling window to the front. The spacious master bedroom has a window to the front elevation and an excellent range of built-in wardrobes, cupboards, drawers and shelving. A wet/shower room with an opaque glazed window to the side provides a large shower enclosure and a corner wash hand basin, fully tiled walls and vinyl flooring. A separate cloakroom with a window to the side provides a low flush WC.
The 'L' shaped lounge/dining room is a bright and airy space with a window to the side, a feature brick fireplace surround with an inset electric fire and tiled hearth, and sliding patio doors leading onto the patio and garden. The kitchen has a window to the side elevation, houses the wall mounted glowworm Combi boiler and provides a range of eye and base level units and drawers, ample roll edge laminate preparation surfaces, a composite sink and drainer unit with mixer tap and window above overlooking the garden, an integrated New World four-ring gas hob and space for appliances including an oven, washing machine, dishwasher and fridge, wood laminate flooring and a uPVC door to the side.
Outside - To the front, the property enjoys a pretty gravelled frontage with a variety of shrubs and plants including a beautiful blossom tree. A tarmac driveway provides off street parking for three vehicles and gives access to the garage, with an electric fob operated door. To the rear of the garage is a lovely sun room, of brick and uPVC construction with tiled flooring and an electric heater. The rear garden is a particular feature, mainly laid to lawn with a patio area, well stocked borders and an array of flowers, shrubs and trees.
