Detached bungalow for sale in Melton Mowbray LE13, 2 Bedroom

Fantastic opportunity to modernise this well built and designed 2/3 bedroom bungalow in a popular area of Melton. Loads of living space and a real homely feel, ideal for a small family, couple or single person. Enclosed garden, off road parking and a secure enclosed carport add to this lovely home.

This really homely bungalow was built with love and was a family home for many years. Although in need of some modernisation and updating, it is easy to see how this could once again be a vibrant modern family home. The versatile layout allows for it to be used as a two or three bedroom home depending on family needs and the added benefit of the loft space could easily add to the living space with the right permissions.

So approaching this home it certainly has kerb appeal, a well kept front garden secured from the road by wooden fencing opens into a drive next to the bungalow. Double bay windows and a stained partially glazed front door give this a traditional but homely feel, which does continue as you enter this home.
The front door opens into the hall that leads to all rooms in the home. To the left the front living room is a good size with plenty of space and light, the bay window adds to the character of the room which could also easily be used as another bedroom.

Opposite this room to the right of the hall the main bedroom with its bay window is again a lovely light room. Built in bedroom furniture provides plenty of storage or could be removed to provide a space to redesign. Next to this bedroom the family bathroom sits opposite the second bedroom. This double room overlooks the side of the home and again currently has built in bedroom furniture, a great child/teenagers room or guest room.

The end of the hall opens into a great living space where the kitchen, dining area and sitting room have an open plan feel, this could be modernised and made into a fantastic family space. Currently the kitchen runs to the right of the door, a good size workable space with plenty storage and worktops. What looks like the back door opens into a small hall way housing the metres and a great size pantry as well as the exit into the garden.
Between the kitchen and the sitting area, a dining space, large enough for a table, with double doors opening into the conservatory/garden room. The sitting room is open to the dining area but can be made cosy with the sliding door enabling it to be its own closed room. A lovely space for snuggling up with a book or watching television, but equally a great space for the family to be whilst you are preparing the meal or perhaps for friends to mingle when entertaining.

Through the double doors in the dining area, the conservatory/garden room runs the whole width of the home. A bright room once used to pot plants and enjoy the garden, this room does need some attention but gives a good idea of what could be. Entry here to the enclosed secure carport without having to go outside is a handy bonus. The carport currently has no light and power at present but does provide a storage space or place to park the much loved family car, bikes etc.

This home has loads of potential, especially for those looking to maybe have an extra room in the house. The loft space has never formally been converted into a room but was used by the son that lived here as his bedroom - with the right planning permissions this could be made into a great added living space, office, bedroom etc, with its skylight views across the roof tops and large floor space. As it is it provides extra space for storage or used a playroom or teenagers escape, the pull down ladder provides easy access with the added benefit of being easily tidied when the loft hatch is put back in place.

To the back of the home a lovely mature garden with areas to grow, sit and play. Mainly laid to lawn and surrounded by mature trees and shrubs a hidden well adds intrigue, whilst the large shed next to the patio area provides extra storage or perhaps a play house or workshop. A side gate allows access to the garden from the side of the home.

Set on the south side of town within easy commute to Leicester, Oakham, Grantham, Nottingham and Loughborough, the A1 and M1, this home is also close to bus routes into the town centre and walking distance of the train station. A lovely maturely developed area of town close to country walks, schools and amenities, a perfect place to retire or to bring up a family.

So if you like to put your own stamp on things and are up for making this lovely bungalow a loved home again, come and take a look - call now or go on line to book your viewing now, it really must be seen to appreciate the potential and homely feel.
