2 Bedroom Bungalow for sale in Stroud

2 2 2

Description

The Churn, an individually-designed detached bungalow built by a local builder for his mother, is conveniently positioned in the heart of the sought-after Cotswold village of Bisley, and occupies a corner position on a no-through private road of eight homes.  

One of only a few bungalows in Bisley, and rarely on the market, The Churn is an ideal home for the downsizer looking to live in a friendly and active community, and also has excellent rental potential.

The Churn, which was refurbished in late 2022 to include a new gas boiler and radiators, rewiring and quality carpets, is fully double-glazed and, with curtains, blinds and white goods included, is ‘ready to move into’. 

A spacious entrance hall leads to an inner hallway and then to the separate fitted kitchen and the open-plan configuration of the dining room and living room.

The living room features an oak mantel with a log-burner effect electric stove, and is triple aspect (east-south-west) allowing plenty of natural light. There are two bedrooms, a shower room and a further en-suite shower room. Adjoining the main bedroom there is a triple-aspect conservatory. 

There is private driveway parking for two cars in front of the detached garage. The garage has power connected, an electric roller door, storage units and eaves storage. 

The Churn is set amongst wrap-around gardens which have been thoughtfully laid for easy, low maintenance. A rose garden is positioned to the southerly aspect, a gravel garden by the conservatory, and a walled courtyard, a small area of which falls within a conservation area, enjoys the afternoon and evening sun.
