Detached bungalow for sale in Banbury Road, Lighthorne CV35

Nestled in a semi-rural location, this detached bungalow presents a unique opportunity to embrace tranquillity on approximately a third of an acre. Originally dating back to circa 1890, the residence underwent significant enhancements, first with its separation from the main farm and subsequent extensions in the 1970s and late 1980s.

Entering through the side, the property unfolds into an inviting entrance hall boasting a convenient cloaks cupboard. A left turn leads to the impressive 19' main living space, characterised by a vaulted ceiling and adorned with a wood-burning stove. This area offers picturesque views of the main garden and provides seamless access to the dining room situated at the rear of the property.

The dual-aspect 15' dining room boasts high-level windows and seamlessly connects to the recently refitted breakfast kitchen. Adorned with maple-effect kitchen units, this culinary space not only offers functionality but also grants access to the rear of the property and scenic views of the side garden.

A lobby serves as the gateway to the bathroom and three generously sized double bedrooms, complemented by an integrated storage cupboard. The master bedroom, positioned at the front, features an integrated double wardrobe and frames captivating views of the front garden and beyond into open fields. The second bedroom, having a wash basin with vanity unit, has a bay window located to the front elevation, mirroring these scenic views, while the third bedroom enjoys a peaceful outlook onto the side garden. The 4-piece bathroom adds a touch of luxury with both a bath and a shower cubicle, and it conveniently houses the airing cupboard.

Approaching the property via a long private driveway, flanked by trees, reveals an expansive frontage laid with gravel, providing additional parking space. The detached garage and workshop, featuring an electrically operated garage door, further enhance the property's appeal. The primary garden, facing southeast, unfolds at the front, offering captivating views across open fields. Lush and predominantly laid to lawn, this garden is adorned with a variety of fruit trees including damson and pear. Additionally, an enclosed side garden, cultivated as a kitchen garden which includes a Victoria plum tree further featuring a charming patio area, contributing to the overall charm and versatility of this delightful bungalow.

Beyond its current charm and character, this detached bungalow boasts immense development potential, presenting an exciting opportunity to extend or add further units to the expansive land, approximately a third of an acre in size. The vast and versatile grounds provide an ideal canvas for creative development, making it an enticing prospect for those with a vision for expansion.

Whether considering additional living spaces, annexes, or other structures, the ample land offers the space and potential to create a truly unique and personalised property.
