Further highlights include flat plastered ceilings to the majority of the bungalow with downlighters. Outside there is well maintained front garden providing at least 50ft of frontage and a most private southerly facing well-maintained rear garden. The driveway provides ample off-road parking leading to a sizeable single garage. Viewing highly recommended.
