Gas central heating system, uPVC double-glazed windows, owned solar panels providing income, block-paved driveway providing excellent parking/turning space and detached brick garage. Attractive and beautifully kept gardens to the front and rear.

The Property The bungalow is estimated to date back to around 1974 and has traditional brick-faced cavity walls beneath a pitched timber roof structure covered in concrete interlocking tiles. Heating is by a gas-fired central heating system and there are owned solar panels on the south-west roof slope connected to the bungalow's power and hot water system and feeding the national grid to also provide an income. The property has been greatly improved over recent years and has uPVC-framed, double-glazed windows of generous size, creating a very bright and airy interior. The fascias and soffit boards have also been replaced in complementary white uPVC and there is a Victorian-style conservatory to the rear. There is a good size detached, brick-built single garage with light and power. A glance at the EPC will immediately convey the efficiency and low running costs which are enjoyed by this well specified home.

Follow the road for some distance passing the Brown Cow Inn, the Co-op store and garage before turning left at the bollards into Stewton Lane.
