DESCRIPTION & CONSTRUCTION:
This bungalow was originally built in the early 1970’s to traditional standards with facing brick elevations under a tiled roof. The present owners have been in residence for the past 38 years during which time they have extended the property to the rear in 1989 to form a dining room and enlarge the kitchen. Lounge/bedroom five was built in 1987 for an annexe with a shared kitchen. Previous owners converted the original integral garage into rooms and built the detached double garage. The property offers comfortable and versatile accommodation for multi-generational purposes. In our opinion, to fully appreciate the size and quality of the property, an internal viewing is strongly recommended.

Local facilities within close proximity include Lions Hill, (a Site of Special Scientific Interest), Moors Valley Country Park and 18 hole golf course, plus Avon Heath Country Park, The popular St Ives school, Cornerways doctors surgery, local convenience store and Bretts pharmacy are all easily accessible.
