DESCRIPTION Situated on the Bath side of the city with a south facing aspect is this two/three bedroom detached bungalow in need of some modernisation. The property benefits from no onward chain, large plot and offers a host of opportunities to either extend or improve. The bungalow comprises a large entrance hall with exposed floorboards, sitting room with wood burner and south facing aspect and a dining room overlooking the gardens. The kitchen has a door onto the garden and features a range of units, a larder, airing cupboard and electric cooker. Two large double bedrooms lead from the entrance hall along with the bathroom with a bath and electric shower overhead. The current owners currently use the back room as a dining room but could easily be used as a third double bedroom.
OUTSIDE Wrought iron gates open to the sweeping concrete drive leading to the garage and parking area which can accommodate space for 3/4 cars. Steps lead to a covered porch which opens into the entrance hall. The rear garden is accessed from the kitchen onto a patio area with steps to the lawn. The garden has been kept low maintenance, mainly being laid to lawn with a large vegetable patch and covered seating area at the far end. Three storage sheds can be found in the garden along with a door into the garage.
