Limden Close, Stonegate, TN5

Occupying a tucked-away, corner plot of just under a quarter of an acre, in a quiet close in the village of Stonegate, between Wadhurst, Ticehurst and Burwash, is this sixties detached bungalow, which is ripe for renovation - Offered with No Chain. EPC: tbv

Coming to the market for the first time since 1980, this detached bungalow offers a prime opportunity for updating and extending, subject to the usual consents.

Others in the close have extended both out and up into the loft, setting a precedent for a similar scope of works.

This house occupies a very private, corner plot, tucked-away at the back of the close, on about 0.24 of an acre, which backs onto woodland.

The gardens were clearly a much loved feature of the property in their day and are compartmented into different areas of interest, making it difficult to capture the full extent of the outside space, which needs to be seen to be fully appreciated.

The bungalow comes with a single garage, which is  adjacent but detached to the house and attached to a neighbouring garage. There is also space to park at least one car on the driveway in front of the garage and scope to potentially extend the driveway in front of the house.

The accommodation is well balanced as it stands and could just be updated. It currently offers a generous double aspect sitting room with sliding door to the gardens, a kitchen, two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, a third bedroom or dining room depending on requirement, and a bathroom with separate WC. There is also a store room across an open porch from the kitchen, which could potentially be incorporated into the accommodation footprint.
