Dolesbury Drive, Oaklands, Welwyn, Hertfordshire, AL6

This 1950s brick-built detached bungalow offers excellent scope for improvement and extension (STPP). Set towards the end of a peaceful no-through road, characterized by a number of larger detached homes, it enjoys a position close to Mardley Woods, without being overshadowed, and with wildlife frequently visiting the garden.

The property is offered for sale chain-free and would benefit from some updating, in particular the bathroom. The kitchen has never been used. The bungalow sits on a generous plot of approximately 0.23 Acres, and with a substantial loft void, provides clear potential to extend subject to the usual consents. The current accommodation is neutrally presented and comprises a central entrance hall, bright lounge with fireplace, kitchen, dining area/ potential third bedroom, two double bedrooms and bathroom.

Outside, the rear garden extends to approximately 131ft (40m) and, whilst currently overgrown, offers significant potential to create a superb outdoor space. To the front, the property is set well back from the road, with a wide frontage providing driveway parking, a brick-built detached garage, and an area requiring landscaping.

Potential to be chain free. Energy rating: E
