3 Bedroom Bungalow

Looking for a detached bungalow surrounded by open countryside, with generous gardens, plenty of parking and scope to update to individual taste? This three-bedroom Woolaway construction bungalow offers well-proportioned single-storey accommodation, including separate living and dining rooms, together with a detached garage and off-road parking, all in a no-through-road rural setting.

Set amongst the open countryside of West Wales, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers a good amount of internal and external space, with gardens wrapping around three sides of the property, off-road parking for two to three vehicles and a useful detached garage. Located along a no-through road and surrounded by fields and greenery, it is a property that has clearly been well cared for over the years and, although now ready for some modernisation, provides a sound basis for creating a comfortable rural home.

Of Woolaway construction, the bungalow has a practical single-storey layout with three bedrooms, two separate reception rooms, a kitchen and bathroom. The accommodation extends to approximately 126 sq m according to the floor plan, including the garage, and the proportions of the main rooms are particularly useful.

The entrance, via a decked ramp overlooking the front garden, opens into a porch and from here into a broad hallway, which acts as the central point of the home, with a useful storage cupboard and gives access to much of the accommodation.

The living room is a particularly good-sized reception space, with a wide window looks across the garden and provides plenty of natural light, while a stone fireplace forms the main focal point of the room. There is ample space here for a choice of seating arrangements, making this a comfortable everyday living area.

Details Continued:
A door connects the living room directly with the separate dining room, which again benefits from a wide window overlooking the garden. Having two defined reception rooms is a real advantage and gives the layout a degree of flexibility, with the dining room equally capable of accommodating a study or additional sitting area if preferred.

From the dining room there is direct access into the kitchen. This is another well-proportioned room, with fitted base and wall units, work surfaces, a sink beneath the window and spaces for a range of freestanding appliances. There is also an integrated electric oven and gas hob, with a door providing useful independent access outside to the rear of the property. There is a useful airing cupboard housing the hot water tank with immersion heater and also the 5 Micron Filter and UV Steriliser for the private water. The kitchen would benefit from updating, but its dimensions provide plenty to work with when considering a future redesign.

There are three bedrooms, all accessed from the hallway. Bedroom one is a comfortable double room with a range of fitted wardrobes extending along one wall and a window overlooking the front garden. Bedroom two is another double, while bedroom three provides a useful single bedroom which could work particularly well as a home office, hobby room or occasional guest room.

The bathroom is fitted with an accessible shower with panels and an electric shower over, wash hand basin and WC. Like the kitchen, this is an area where updating could make a significant difference without altering the overall layout of the property.

The bungalow has oil-fired central heating, with the boiler positioned externally to the rear of the house and an oil storage tank within the grounds. The property also has a private borehole water supply.

Gardens, Parking & Garage:
Outside is where this property has another real advantage. The bungalow sits within established gardens extending around the front and side and wide pathway to the rear, creating a good sense of space between the house and its boundaries.

A gated entrance opens onto the driveway, providing off-road parking for approximately two to three vehicles and access to the detached garage. The front and side gardens are predominantly lawned, complemented by established hedging, shrubs and mature planting, including an impressive hydrangea close to the house.

A raised decked ramp leads from the house down towards the garden, while paths continue around the property. Steps lead down into a further lawned garden at the side, where there is also a paved patio providing space for outdoor seating. The mature boundaries give the garden definition whilst retaining its connection with the surrounding countryside.

To the rear of the bungalow is a concrete area adjoining the field boundary, together with further outside storage space. The gardens offer plenty of scope for someone interested in gardening to gradually reshape and replant areas while retaining the established trees, shrubs and hedging already in place.

The detached garage is a particularly useful addition. It has access from the driveway together with a pedestrian door leading towards the rear of the property and contains the water storage tank associated with a separate, private spring water supply. The garage itself requires some repair, but provides valuable storage and workshop potential alongside its traditional use.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE AREA:
The surrounding countryside plays an important part in the feel of the property. With fields beyond the boundaries and the house positioned away from busy through traffic, the setting has a distinctly rural character while still allowing access to the towns, villages and coastline of Cardigan Bay.

Overall, this is a well-proportioned bungalow that offers considerably more than simply a modernisation project. The three-bedroom layout, two separate reception rooms, generous gardens, parking and detached garage provide a good starting point, while updating the kitchen, bathroom and décor would allow the next owner to put their own stamp on the property without needing to fundamentally change its layout.

For anyone looking for single-storey living in the West Wales countryside, with outdoor space and the opportunity to improve a home over time, this property is well worth viewing.
