Witney, OX28 6LW

THE PROPERTY: Occupying a plot of approximately 0.14 acres in a settled residential street, this three-bedroom detached bungalow offers a breadth of single-storey accommodation that is genuinely rare so close to the town centre. The layout is well considered: an entrance hall leads to a sitting room with separate dining area beyond and built beneath a hipped tiled roof in keeping with the main structure. The kitchen has a rear lobby - ideal for coats and muddy paws. Three bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. The home is double glazed throughout and heated by gas central heating. What distinguishes this property from its contemporaries is the gardens, to both front and rear that offer privacy rarely encountered in a town setting. Paved terraced areas and two ponds create a sense of contemplative seclusion, whilst gated access to the rear gives that additional security which families and those with dogs will appreciate. The detached double garage with a workshop area and additional driveway parking is a welcome find. There is also a substantial outbuilding and greenhouse. Carefully maintained, the property would benefit from a programme of updating throughout making it ready for the new owners to spend several happy decades just as the present owner has!
