There's much more to this charming two-bedroom bungalow in Netherton than initially meets the eye.
Situated in Moor Lane, the bungalow has much to commend it including a delightful rear garden which is a real selling point for this property, along with a large sun room and a converted loft area which is very versatile and ideal for use as an extra bedroom, playroom or office space.
Current owner Sue Dykeman is now looking to downsize. She says: “Now that I am a widow, I want a fresh start in life and am currently looking for a new, smaller property. I also want to release a little capital so I can enjoy myself.”
During her time in the property, Sue and her late husband carried out many improvements toa high standard.
She said: “We re-did all the back garden and a lot of work in the house. It has recently had allthe roofline and guttering updated. My husband was a joiner so he was able to work on the house,but everything has been done by professionals to a high standard.”
She says she has enjoyed living in Moor Lane as it is close to local shops and schools, not farfrom the centre of Huddersfield, but equally close to local countryside. It’s also on the main bus route which goes around the Marten Nest area of Netherton and is also on the local mini-bus village route.
“I lived here for over 25 years and have had lovely neighbours but now it’s time for a change and a new start in life,” she said.
From the front the two-bedroom detached property looks like a pretty standard traditional bungalow, but walk round to the rear and it has a beautiful garden with lawns, two seating areas, a pond with waterfall, path and rural views in the distance. It really is the ‘piece de resistance’ ofthis property.
Overlooking the garden is a large sun room which acts as a second sitting room with double French doors leading to the outside.
The rest of the property includes a spacious dining kitchen with integrated appliances and plenty of room for a dining area. A floor to ceiling window offers views over the garden.
At the front of the house is the main sitting room which has a bay window looking over the front of the property which has a good-sized driveway, trees and shrubs.
Also at the front is the master bedroom, close to the house bathroom which has a recently fittedcurved bath with shower, a built-in storage cupboard and skylight.
The second bedroom is also a good size and is situated right next to the downstairs cloakroomwhich also has contemporary fittings.
One of the hidden gems of this bungalow is the converted loft space which Sue has fitted out as abedroom and which is ideal for visiting grandchildren. The loft has a window offering far reaching views over Netherton and local countryside and is reached via a foldaway ladder.
This is a charming bungalow with a peaceful, private garden. It would be ideal for a retired couple with visiting family or a single person.
