39 Dugg Hill, Heversham, Milnthorpe, LA7 7EF

Ideal for downsizing or as a retirement move, this link detached bungalow was built in 1970 and enjoys a quiet and peaceful, slightly elevated cul-de-sac position which affords some lovely views over roof tops to the Lakeland fells, on a clear day you can enjoy an aspect of the Langdales, Bowfell, Scarfell and The Old Man of Coniston as well as there being some super sunsets to be enjoyed as the property has a south westerly orientation.

The bungalow has been upgraded, works have included replacement roof tiles (2021), a new central heating boiler (2020) and renewal of glazing on the conservatory roof and windows (2019). Rooms are light and bright with good proportions. The open plan sitting and dining room has a sociable flow especially as doors then open to the conservatory. Views from the side and rear elevations are over the delightful and well-tended garden which features a central lawn with gently curved borders that are well stocked with a variety of shrubs and plants offering a variety of foliage and seasonal blooms for all year round interest. The garden is lovely and private and enclosed too, so safe for pets and has a number of locations in which to arrange outdoor furniture. The single garage is an asset (it has an electric door, power and light), whether you choose to park in it or not (it offers alternative workshop or hobbies space potential) as there is room along the length of the drive and in front of the bungalow to probably park four cars with comfort.

Accommodation wise, a front door opens into an entrance vestibule which then leads through into the sitting room which has an unusually high ceiling creating an airy feel. An impressive carved stone fireplace houses a living gas flame fire and is an attractive focal point as is the wide bow window. The space is L-shaped, the sitting room flows into a dining area adjacent to the breakfast kitchen where extensive cabinets provide storage and there is a breakfast bar. A door leads out into the side garden and from the dining area sliding doors open to the conservatory which is glazed to three sides and has French doors to the garden. The conservatory is almost south facing so is a delightful place to sit with a coffee and the papers and enjoy views out to the garden whatever the weather. A couple of steps from the living area lead into an inner hall, off here are the bedrooms, all of which include space saving fitted furniture. There are two good doubles rooms, one of which has an ensuite shower room. The third bedroom is a single and it, along with the second double bedroom share use of the bathroom which includes a laundry cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine and vent for a tumble dryer. Other points to note, the windows and doors are all PVC and all living rooms and bedrooms are smartly finished with cornicing to the ceiling.
