Property description
As the saying goes \"Don't judge a book by its cover\". Much the same can be said of this cute looking 1920's detached bungalow, as it is far larger than external appearances suggest. You see, no matter what angle you take the photograph from, it never really looks as big as it really is! What we actually have here, is a property that is a jolly good size, easily capable of housing a family. Not only that, it sits on a generous plot, with good sized gardens to both front and rear. Tarporley Road is one of the most sought after addresses in Whitchurch as it houses a good mix of established properties and it is also within walking distance of the town centre. In particular, Sainsbuy's supermarket is within strolling distance and there are swift road links to the bypass for fast travel into Chester, Shrewsbury and North Wales. The current owners have thoughtfully improved this bungalow, both structurally and cosmetically so it really does have a lot to offer. It is beautifully presented throughout and the family/garden room is a wonderful place in which to relax and unwind. Our clients readily admit to spending most of their time here! In addition, there is a formal lounge to the front of the bungalow, there are 3 bedrooms, plus a re-fitted cloakroom, family bathroom and kitchen, the latter having solid granite worktops with matching breakfast bar and a range-style cooker. From here, there is access to the separate utility room. Outside, in addition to the large single garage, there is a substantial detached brick outbuilding, divided into two and ideal for homeworkers/workshop and/or hobby/play room - especially useful due to the fact that there are lights, power and natural daylight. The large rear garden is enclosed for the safety of children and pets and has an ornamental pond (fish not included!) with waterfall feature. We feel certain that most people will fall in love with this comfortable home, not just down to the space and beautiful decor, but also because a lot of the original features have been retained including a lovely polished wood block floor in the entrance hall, fireplaces and picture rails. Go ahead, spoil yourselves and take a peak!
