Occupying a generous plot on Dowlands Road, this deceptively spacious three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached home offers an impressive degree of flexibility, with extended accommodation arranged over three levels.

One of the property's most appealing characteristics is its unusual design. From the front it has the appearance of a bungalow, while the rear elevation reveals the scale and multi-level nature of the accommodation. This creates a home that feels considerably larger than first impressions might suggest, with different areas offering a welcome sense of separation.

The property is approached via a frontage providing off-road parking for several vehicles. Upon entering, the hallway provides access to the principal rooms on the entrance level.

The main reception room is arranged as a comfortable living room, from which stairs descend into a particularly impressive dining room. A striking double-height ceiling creates an exceptional feeling of space and makes this a memorable feature of the home. The dining room in turn opens into a substantial kitchen, which overlooks the rear garden and provides plenty of space for everyday family life.

The kitchen continues into a charming garden room, creating a wonderful connection between the house and garden. Doors open directly onto the patio, making this an ideal spot for relaxing while enjoying the outlook across the mature grounds. A useful WC completes the accommodation on this level.

Returning to the entrance hallway, there is a well-proportioned double bedroom benefiting from its own private en-suite shower room. A further bedroom and family bathroom are also situated on this level, providing flexible accommodation that could work particularly well for children, guests or buyers seeking predominantly ground-floor bedroom facilities.

Stairs rise from the hallway to the principal bedroom. Occupying its own level, this is an impressive room that enjoys an excellent degree of separation from the remaining bedroom accommodation together with delightful treetop views.

An additional converted loft room is accessed via pull-down steps. Previously used as a music room, this light-filled space has Velux windows and offers excellent versatility. It could make an ideal hobby room or occasional home-working space, particularly for those looking to create a clear distinction between their working environment and the main living accommodation.

Outside, the property continues to impress. Side access leads to the rear garden, where a patio immediately adjoining the house provides an attractive space for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, the generous garden is predominantly laid to lawn and enjoys a high degree of privacy.  An impressive variety of established trees and shrubs creates a mature and secluded setting, while further seating areas provide opportunities to enjoy the garden and sunshine at different times of the day. There are also useful outbuildings offering additional storage.

The combination of space, privacy and highly adaptable accommodation gives this home particularly broad appeal. It could be equally well suited to a family wanting different generations or family members to have their own space, those working from home and requiring additional rooms away from the principal living areas, or early downsizers wishing to retain the feeling and proportions of a larger home while enjoying more manageable accommodation.
