Description
A simply stunning renovated four bedroom detached bungalow with breathtaking views and established gardens in the region of one acre.
The Property - This beautifully presented residence was transformed by its current owners in 2019 when the bungalow benefitted from large single storey extensions as well as complete refurbishment. Heatherleigh has been transformed into a spacious family home with a warm neutral décor, contemporary fixtures and fittings and the emphasis on natural light. Overall Heatherleigh has been beautifully finished with great attention to detail as well as providing all the benefits of modern day living.
Accommodation - On entering the property you are greeted by a central hallway which provides access to all of the principal rooms. Oak veneer doors and oak skirting boards seamlessly blend in with the use of classic colourings and a dark wood laminate flooring. The sitting room makes the most of the far reaching westerly views over the three counties and includes a high vaulted ceiling, double doors that lead out onto the terrace and a wood burning stove. The sellers have created a fashionable kitchen/family room full of natural light, thus making this the ideal space for those who like to entertain. The kitchen has been well designed with gloss finished units, a range of integrated appliances and under counter lighting. There is also a useful utility room providing additional storage and space for further appliances. In total Heatherleigh offers four bedrooms, two of which feature en suite shower rooms. These rooms offer a great deal of flexibility to purchasers who require office/studio space while the guest bedroom has its own private access and could be utilised as a potential annexe or teenagers den. There is also a smart family bathroom incorporating a modern white suite and shower over the bath.
