A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire this deceptively spacious detached bungalow, offering versatile accommodation over two floors together with one very special surprise hidden away from the roadside, a superb snooker room complete with a full-size championship table.
Set behind a generous, well-screened block-paved driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles, this distinctive property has been extensively improved by the current owners and enjoys a highly convenient location close to the town centre, railway station, Millfields Hotel and a wide range of local amenities. To the rear, the property benefits from attractive open views, backing directly onto St James' Playing Field.
The accommodation is approached via a spacious L-shaped entrance hall with staircase leading to the first floor. The impressive bay-fronted lounge provides an excellent principal reception room, featuring a built-in window seat and an attractive brick inglenook-style fireplace with gas fire.
The ground floor also offers a generous principal bedroom overlooking the front aspect, together with a versatile study which could easily serve as a fourth bedroom. A beautifully appointed contemporary shower room features a large walk-in shower, separate WC and stylish vanity unit, complemented by modern high-gloss wall panelling and LED lighting.
Without doubt, the outstanding open-plan dining kitchen is one of the property's most impressive features. Extending to approximately 26ft 3in in length, the space combines a raised dining area with a modern fitted kitchen incorporating a comprehensive range of integrated appliances. Sliding patio doors lead into the bright conservatory, creating an ideal environment for both family life and entertaining.
A rear lobby provides access to the garage and leads through to what is undoubtedly the property's unique selling feature. Completely concealed from the roadside, the remarkable snooker room offers an exceptional leisure and entertainment space, complete with a full-size championship snooker table, concealed WC facilities and patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden.
To the first floor, the landing serves two further bedrooms together with a separate WC, providing excellent flexibility for families, guests or those requiring home-working space.
The property has been carefully maintained and updated, including a modern fitted kitchen, refurbished shower room and the installation of a new boiler in 2025.
Externally, the property continues to impress with a large garage, covered car port and extensive block-paved driveway. Mature shrubs, trees and planting screen the property from the roadside, while the rear garden has been designed for ease of maintenance with paved seating areas, established conifers and direct views across St James' Playing Field.
Offering far more accommodation than first appears, this unique detached bungalow combines spacious living, flexible accommodation and a truly exceptional hidden snooker room. Internal viewing is essential to fully appreciate the size, layout and individuality of this wonderful home.
A rare opportunity to purchase a distinctive and deceptively spacious property in one of the area's most convenient and sought-after locations.
