Full Details

Sidonia is a beautifully designed four bedroom detached bungalow, constructed in 1993, situated in the heart of the peaceful, commuter village of Eaglesfield. This property offers an excellent opportunity to purchase a flexible and spacious home with three reception rooms, four generous bedrooms, two bathrooms and externally a large driveway, detached double garage and front and rear lawns all set within extensive grounds extending to roughly 0.4 acres.

The front door welcomes a small porch before stepping into a warm and welcoming hallway featuring engineered oak flooring throughout, extensive storage cupboards including an airing cupboard with water cylinder, and WC with wash hand basin and towel rail. The hallway is flooded with light as a result of the glass paned double doors and glass partition leading to the conservatory at the rear of the property. The conservatory, with electric underfloor heating, is a fabulous room for entertaining family or guests and enjoys superb views of the garden and horizon. Double french doors step onto a sandstone patio and onto the rear lawn.

To the front elevation is an exceptionally large living room boasting a bay window with views of the front lawn and driveway, electric fire set on a marble hearth and double glass paned doors which flow nicely through to the dining room and kitchen thereafter. The dining room is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen and provides a lovely space for larger families to sit down and enjoy an evening meal. The kitchen is fitted with modern, oak wall and floor units, finished with a black granite worktop and includes a Kensington electric range cooker, integrated dishwasher, fridge and microwave with the benefit of a breakfast bar. Next door is a contemporary utility room with matching units to the kitchen complete with integrated fridge/freezer, integrated washer/dryer, ceiling mounted pulley and is fitted with an additional sink with mixer tap. A side door provides access to the garden.

The property boasts four generous bedrooms in total with three bedrooms benefiting from built-in and fitted wardrobes and the fourth currently being used as an office with fitted desk and shelving. The primary bedroom also features an en-suite shower room with electric underfloor heating and is complete with WC, wash hand basin and walk-in shower off mains. The family bathroom is partially tiled and complete with bath, WC, wash hand basin and separate shower cubicle with mains shower.

Externally the property offers a great deal of privacy with hedging on each side and a variety of mature trees at the rear of the garden. The garden can only be described as a real hidden gem. The front driveway is predominately laid with loose stone with brick paving leading to the detached garage with manual door. The garage was built with the potential for conversion in mind and benefits from electricity supply and water supply. At the front of the property is a front garden predominately laid with grass and to the rear, a more extensive, landscaped garden with open views of Burnswalk Hill. At the rear is a lovely sandstone paved patio which is perfect for outdoor eating during the Summer. The property enjoys pleasant views of open countryside.
