A fantastic opportunity to acquire this architecturally designed two/three bedroom detached bungalow occupying a generous plot set back from Rectory Lane in the Old Town, just a short walk from the historic High Street, local amenities, John Henry Newman School and Lister Hospital. Offered for sale CHAIN FREE, the bungalow would benefit from a degree of modernisation whilst lending itself to being extended (subject to planning permission). It is worthy of note that there is additional potential for the bungalow to be demolished and a new property built in its place (subject to planning permission). The bungalow features many architectural features consistent with the bungalow's age including tall cedar panelled ceilings, an ingenious electric heated ceiling system (not tested), full height glazed windows and feature exposed brickwork. Further highlights include a most impressive frontage approaching 100ft with a double garage and a low maintenance private rear garden. Further practical benefits include double glazing with electric storage heaters complementing the ceiling heating system. The accommodation comprises a wide welcoming reception hallway, galley kitchen, a most impressive open-plan main living area combining both seating and dining areas with a study recess, conservatory, two generous double bedrooms with an occasional third bedroom/family room and both a shower room and a bathroom. Viewing is highly recommended.
