Immense potential When approaching along Glenfield Frith Drive, this bungalow is found at the top of a privately shared drive which is parallel to The Hall, Primary School. It is framed with mature trees and shrubs, giving it an air of privacy and seclusion. A large frontage is framed by brick walls and borders. There is a generously proportioned hard standing area, which is large enough for several vehicles and conveniently shaped for ease of access and turning. A trio of double garages can be quickly accessed from the drive and from a rear kitchen door from the main building. This aerially creates a reversed capital letter L and emphasises the overall width of the property and plot. It also presents the possibility for using parts of the building for different purposes. For example, if supplementary but separate accommodation is required, this arrangement could provide the potential to create an annexe and still leave room for a garage. It could also be adapted to become office space or a gym, and as it is within a few steps from the existing bungalow, those suggestions are only a few of the many possible options. A ground floor tour Once inside the spacious carpeted entrance hall, the bungalow essentially divides into bedrooms and bathing to the left, with everyday living facilities to the right and immediately opposite. The large galley kitchen has room for informal dining and looks out to the drive at the front of the property, through which –as previously explained- a rear door opens onto a patio and across to a utility room. This is fitted to accommodate a washing machine and tumble drier. The kitchen has white cabinetry, with some integrated appliances including a double oven with gas hob and extractor hood, and fridge/freezer. A double sink under the window with neutrally coordinated floor and wall tiles separating the sweep of wall and floor units, create a light and airy room. It is from here that the free flow living area begins as doors and arches dividing the living and family room, provide a generous expanse of space to the rear of the property. South facing The reception rooms all take advantage of the south facing aspect of this home. They are full of light and have been previously altered to enable areas to be designated for sitting or dining while maintaining the flexibility for larger scale entertaining. The family room has a double aspect. Besides having a separate window to the side of the traditional chimneybreast, there are two sets of patio doors opening to a large paved area for sunbathing or shaded retreat into the private garden. The dining area easily accommodates a generously sized table. And so to dream From the living room area, the hall has several doors leading to the array of carpeted bedrooms. The primary bedroom is at the furthest point and has its own en suite consisting of a bidet, toilet, heated towel rail, walk in shower and basin in white, with tiles on the walls and floor.
