Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Rugby, CV23 :
Detached bungalow for sale in Clifton-upon-Dunsmore
Don't be deceived - This place is much bigger than it looks and is prime for conversion!
Keep it in the family? This property has been from new.....BUT now it could be your turn to make it home........
This striking bungalow has been in the family since 1961 when it was built by local builders 'Hardings of Lutterworth' and to say it was well-built, is an understatement.
This substantial property has ‘good bones’ to it and although some of the features haven’t been changed, the quality of the build is excellent. Not only that, it is also located on one of the most sought after roads, in this very popular village.
If you don’t know Clifton-upon-Dunsmore, it’s a well regarded Warwickshire village roughly 2 miles North East of Rugby near the Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Warwickshire border and about 20 minutes' drive from Daventry.
The current owners have lived here together and raised their family since 1975. The lady of the house however, lived here originally with her parents who had the property built and apart from a 10 year gap after they first married, they have lived here ever since.
On inspection, you’ll be surprised by the overall size of the accommodation, but also the huge amount of potential and further possibilities it has to offer, lending itself comfortably to conversion, extension (subject to planning permission) – or simply enjoying it just as it is.
A generous entrance hall greets you when you first walk in through the front door. This area is really versatile offering plenty of space for furniture and also benefiting from plenty of built-in storage.
All the accommodation is on the ground floor and consists of four good-size bedrooms, one of which is used as a study.
A lovely size bright lounge with open fireplace and patio doors is at the rear of the property overlooking the garden.
“The lounge is our favourite room of the house and where we spend most of our time enjoying the view of the garden and watching the seasons change”.
Double doors from the lounge lead into the generous dining room that also overlooks the garden. This is adjacent to the kitchen with its walk-in pantry – still original but a good size - giving you the opportunity that if you wanted to open up the two rooms, you could create a more open-plan space.
Further to this there is shower room as well as an additional cloakroom.
Now it gets interesting when you explore the roof space.......There’s currently a pull down ladder, with an enlargeable hatch space that leads to this amazing area, currently used as a games room and for storage. It has been used in the past to hold family parties – it’s such a large space, they’ve used it as a dance floor!
It measures an amazing 56ft long and is about 14ft wide! All with a good head height. But in addition to this, there is further eaves storage which would extend the width even further, to follow the roof line.
The grounds are lovely too. Beautiful south facing gardens that are bright and sunny with well-established and mature plants, shrubs and trees. Such a good space - it even hosted the owners wedding reception many moons ago!
Also outside there is a good size double garage, with workshop behind, coal house and outside WC. A covered area links these outbuildings to the property.
To the front there is a walled foregarden with gravelled 'In and out' driveway with parking for several cars.
Back to the location:- It offers excellent motorway access having the M6, M1 and A14 nearby and the local railway station allows the commuter to get to Euston in less than 58 minutes.
Clifton has a safe and friendly community feel. It has its own Primary School which boasts 'Outstanding' Ofsted results within easy walking distance as well as the on-site play group.
The village pub, The Bull Inn, was refurbished a couple of years ago, and its garden benefited from a transformation earlier this year. It offers good food and a warm welcome.
Further amenities include St Mary's Church, the Clifton general store, a beauticians, hairdressers and estate agents and the Townsend Memorial village hall which hosts many activities including Mother and baby groups, fitness activities, bridge and one of my favourites, ‘Tuesday Teas‘ where many of the villagers get together for a chat and a very acceptable piece of cake!
There's a playing field, tennis club with 3 courts and a park for the little ones. There are plenty of country walks on your doorstep including the towpath walks along the Oxford Canal.
If this sounds like the sort of place you'd like to make home then call Clare at Campbells for more information.
