Property description
Constructed in 1968 and occupied by the current owners since 1969, Uplands is a detached modern bungalow of excellent proportions, positioned along a quiet no through road with good access to local amenities. The property is split level in design, the living/dining room with large picture window, refitted kitchen and family bathroom are all located off the lower entrance hall with all four bedrooms accessible off the upper level. Central heating is provided via a mains gas fire boiler to radiators and the property is double glazed.
Uplands is set within a good sized plot to the front of which is an open lawned garden bordered by mature flower beds and a double width drive affording off road parking and access to an integral garage. Access on both sides leads through to a good sized rear garden which is fully enclosed and laid predominantly to lawn with a number of mature shrubs and flower beds.
Whilst presented for sale in good order and benefitting from good sized and well planned accommodation, Uplands undoubtedly offers the discerning buyer potential to enlarge and improve subject to the relevant planning consents being obtained.
