Whilst the property would benefit from a programme of updating and modernisation, it offers well-proportioned accommodation with a sensible layout centred around a welcoming entrance hall providing access to the majority of rooms. To the front of the property, the kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units and offers space for a small bistro table and chairs, making it an ideal spot for informal dining. The living room is positioned at the rear of the bungalow and benefits from access into the conservatory, which provides an additional reception area.
There are two bedrooms and a bathroom, all accessed from the central hallway, creating a practical and accessible layout throughout.
Externally, the property benefits from a driveway leading to the garage, with additional gravelled area to the side. The majority of the fenced garden lies to the side of the property and enjoys a sunny aspect, offering an attractive outdoor space that is mainly laid to lawn with surrounding shrubs and bushes. A useful external store is located at the front of the bungalow, while the garage also benefits from a rear access door for added convenience.
The property is heated via a gas-fired central heating system with radiators and represents an excellent opportunity for purchasers to create a comfortable home in a sought-after coastal village setting.
