House For Sale £495,000
The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer this extensively refurbished and highly individual bungalow, occupying a generous plot on a quiet residential road in the popular village of Ingoldisthorpe. The property has recently undergone a major programme of modernisation and re-modelling, and now comprises two largely self-contained 2-bedroom properties, with a single inter-linking door. The property would be perfect for three generations of a family looking to live together, or anyone looking to create an income from home, either by way of a holiday let or 'lodger'. Both parts of the property are equally as comfortable in size and in superb condition, with brand-new kitchens, bathrooms, flooring and décor. The entire property has been fully re-wired and re-plumbed with a brand-new central heating and hot water system. We would also like to make interested parties aware that the property is available with no onward chain.
ACCOMMODATION
Visitors are welcomed in through the porch at the side of the property into the main entrance hall, which extends throughout the front section of the property. The living/dining space is a well-proportioned dual aspect room with fitted shelves in the alcove recess and an opening to the kitchen. The kitchen comprises a range of storage units under marble effect heat resistant work surfaces which extend into a breakfast bar. Appliances include a free-standing 'A' rated duel-fuel range cooker with a gas hob, a free-standing American style fridge/freezer, a washer/dryer machine and an integrated dishwasher.
There are two bedrooms in the front part of the property, both of which are comfortable double rooms with newly carpeted flooring. The bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed bathroom, which includes a double ended bath with central taps, a 1200mm safety glass enclosure (8mm) with thermostatic deluge shower, a twin bowl vanity unit and soft-close WC; fully tiled walls with a fitted mirror and tiled flooring with programmable underfloor heating.
A door from the second bedroom opens into the hallway of the annexe, where there is a storage cupboard and a staircase rising to the first floor bedroom. The annexe living area is a well-proportioned rectangular room with a fitted kitchen, breakfast bar and space for living room furniture alongside a pair of double doors which open out to the recently laid patio. The kitchen includes an integrated oven and hob, a dishwasher and washer/dryer machine.
The annexe has two bedrooms; the ground floor bedroom is a spacious double room with a window overlooking the rear garden and a recess for furniture. Alongside the bedroom is another stylishly appointed bathroom, with the same specification of high-quality fixtures and fittings as the front bathroom. Upstairs there is a second double bedroom with a recently upgraded and enlarged Velux roof light.
THE REFURBISHMENT
Few renovations will have been carried out with such attention to detail, with the highest quality materials being used throughout. The bathrooms have not only been finished with high-quality sanitary ware, but have been waterproofed with Abacus Elements backer board and neoprene seals, which has a 15-year guarantee. The Carron Quantum double ended baths have a 20-year guarantee, whilst the stone resin shower trays are guaranteed for 25 years.
In the kitchens, the quartz sinks are equipped with gunmetal multi-spray pull out mixer taps, stainless steel splashbacks and a range of high-quality Shaker style units with soft-close doors and drawers.
The electrical re-wire includes two new consumer units, USB power sockets and brushed steel sockets and switches throughout. Likewise, when the central heating system was revamped, all existing pipework was replaced with brand new copper piping.
Other features include the newly installed French doors in the annexe, which have a multi-point locking system and 'A' rated argon filled laminated security glass. New oak veneer doors and blinds have been installed throughout.
OUTSIDE
The property is set back from the road with a mature front garden and a long shingle driveway which extends along the eastern boundary which has been partially re-fenced, with the original garden wall forming the rest of the boundary. The driveway provides parking space for several vehicles and leads to the front of the large brick-built garage (17msq./m), with a turning head in front of the bungalow. On the opposite side of the bungalow there is a fully paved alleyway which extends the full length of the property.
The south facing rear garden is a delightful feature, with a porcelain slab patio providing the perfect place to enjoy a summer barbecue or evening drinks. The patio leads on to the lawn which steps up to a higher tier of garden, which is partially laid to lawn with a large concrete shed base, recently topped with a heavy-duty shed membrane. In total, the gardens measure around 210 sq./m (140m at rear and 70m at front).
