Property Description
This extended Detached “dormer” Bungalow is equipped to a very high standard and is beautifully presented. Set on a corner plot with Kessington Drive its garden is undoubtedly one of many notable assets.
With three bedrooms it makes for, as it currently does, a great family home but with all accommodation, except bedroom 3, being on the ground floor it will very much be a property that can appeal to older clients looking for easier all-on-the-level living.
The investments made by our client are immediately evident upon viewing the house and highlights we shall detail later.

Huge thought and care has gone into the upgrading of this house by our client with the quality of fitment far higher than that typically found. The key room is unquestionably the large living room/dining room/kitchen where Harvey Jones Kitchens (harveyjones.com) were commissioned to design and install the superb solid wood, hand painted, units set off by Silestone and solid oak worktops. Integrated/included appliances are a stainless-steel range cooker with five gas hobs, externally vented cooker hood, dishwasher, stainless-steel fridge-freezer, and small glass fronted wine fridge. This whole area is exceptionally bright with windows to south and west, with a large rooflight Velux set over the kitchen area, and a set of patio doors to the rear garden. The adjacent utility room has Howdens units of a style to complement the kitchen units. Oak worktops again and with washing machine and tumble dryer included.
Both the bathroom (refitted about 10 years ago but further upgraded in 2024) and the ensuite shower room (2021) are superbly done and truly can be described as luxury suites.
The sumptuous principal bedroom, in addition to the asset of its ensuite has high-end fitted wardrobes by Strachan (fitted internally with hanging and drawer provision and where LED lighting illuminates upon opening doors).
Heating is mains gas with an efficient British Gas 330 regular boiler and a high-capacity (210 litre) unvented direct hot water cylinder by Megaflo ensuring high pressure to taps and showers. As a touch of luxury there is a wood burning stove, by Aga, in the lounge.
Externally much has been done to improve the house including painting of external walls (2024), re-felting of garage roof (2024), servicing of main roof including repointing of ridge tiles (winter of 2023), with the roof lines all replaced in low maintenance uPVC, and with rolled aluminium guttering around the house. The gardens have been landscaped to include a two-driveway front garden and at the rear where landscape gardeners MacColl & Stokes where commissioned to create the gorgeous sun trap garden (south and west orientations) with its large stone flagged patio, raised vegetable beds (formed by chunky wooden sleepers) along with a matching raised shrubbery border. The garden lies mainly to grass, is enclosed by fencing and laurel and rhododendron screening, is gated and has a kids playhouse, a quality garden shed (2023), and a sunken trampoline by Capital Play.
It is truly a gorgeous home equipped and maintained to an excellent standard and one that cannot fail to impress those who view.
