House For Sale £415,000
A wonderful chance to purchase a spacious two double bedroom detached bungalow, which offers around 933 square feet (86.7 sq. m) of living space and sitting in good sized grounds with views over countryside and the Downs in the distance. The property is situated on the fringe of Mere and is located in a peaceful cul de sac of other similar properties. Within easy reach there is a local public house that serves food with the town centre being about a ten to fifteen minute walk further on. The town caters well for everyday needs, boasting a Coop store, post office, chemist, dentist surgery and primary school. There is also a doctor's surgery, fire station, library, hairdressers and museum plus other public houses and takeaway outlets. The bungalow has been the very much loved and enjoyed home of our sellers for the last twelve years. During this time the property has been very well cared for and improved with the addition of a conservatory, which enjoys a view over the rear garden, the kitchen units were replaced in the early years with soft closing modern units and the bathroom suite was updated last year. The bungalow benefits from uPVC double glazing, gas fired central heating and offers roomy and comfortable accommodation, as it is, with the option to change to one's own taste and choice, as and when required. A viewing is an must to really appreciate the inside and outside space as well as the tranquil location. We strongly advise an early viewing to avoid missing out on the chance to be the next owner.
