A thoughtfully extended three-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, originally constructed in the 1960s, occupying a generous 0.16-acre plot with far-reaching countryside views.
The current owners have an exceptional eye for detail and interior design, thoughtfully remodelling the property to create stylish, contemporary living. A clever conversion of part of the garage has introduced a generous third bedroom alongside a beautifully appointed shower room, while retaining useful storage space. Subject to the necessary consents, the remaining garage area could be converted into a kitchenette, creating an ideal self-contained annexe. With its own independent front entrance, this versatile space is perfectly suited to multi-generational living, guest accommodation or those seeking a degree of independence.
Further enhancing the property's potential, planning permission and architectural drawings are already in place to convert the loft, creating two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom, transforming the home into an impressive five-bedroom residence.
Windfield is set back from the road, the property enjoys ample off-road parking via a generous driveway. A spacious entrance porch leads into a welcoming hallway where attractive wood-effect flooring has been laid seamlessly throughout the principal living areas. Two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom are positioned to the front of the property.
The light-filled living accommodation spans the full width of the home, perfectly orientated to enjoy the delightful outlook across the rear garden and surrounding countryside. The elegant sitting room centres around a charming wood-burning stove set within the chimney breast and opens through French doors onto a sun terrace, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces.
Installed in 2023, the contemporary kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units incorporating integrated appliances, with ample space for dining. A door provides direct access to the garden, making it ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining.
The third bedroom forms part of the garage conversion and benefits from its own private entrance, together with an adjoining shower room, making it an excellent space for a teenager, dependent relative, home business or visiting guests.
