Property Summary

Occupying a generous, larger-than-average plot within the quiet residential development of Westerton View, this well cared for three-bedroom detached bungalow presents an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking a spacious single-level home with excellent potential for future extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Offered to the market with no onward chain, the property has been exceptionally well maintained throughout, allowing new owners to move straight in while still offering scope to personalise over time.

Set back from the road, the bungalow enjoys an attractive frontage with lawned gardens and driveway access leading to the attached garage, providing convenient off-road parking and additional storage. The substantial plot size is immediately apparent and continues to the rear, where a generous garden enjoys pleasant open outlooks, creating a wonderful space for outdoor living while also presenting significant potential for further development or extension.

Internally, the property offers well-proportioned accommodation thoughtfully arranged across a single level. The welcoming entrance hallway provides access to all principal rooms and creates a natural flow throughout the home. The living room is particularly impressive, offering a spacious and light-filled environment ideal for both relaxing and entertaining, with ample space for both seating and dining furniture while large windows allow natural light to flood the room.

The kitchen is well equipped with a range of fitted units and work surfaces, providing practical workspace and direct access to the rear garden, making it well suited for day-to-day family life.

There are three bedrooms, each offering comfortable accommodation and flexibility depending on individual needs. The larger bedroom provides excellent proportions for a principal room, while the additional bedrooms could equally function as guest accommodation, a home office or hobby space. These rooms are served by a modern shower room, finished with contemporary fittings and designed for practical everyday use.

To the rear, the property truly excels. The generous lawned garden provides a peaceful outdoor retreat with far-reaching views across the surrounding landscape, while the patio area adjacent to the sun room offers the perfect spot for outdoor seating and entertaining during the warmer months.

Westerton View is a quiet and well-established residential setting within the village of Coundon, a historic former mining village located on the outskirts of Bishop Auckland. The area offers a range of local amenities including shops, schools and healthcare facilities, while the nearby town centre of Bishop Auckland provides a wider selection of supermarkets, retail outlets, leisure facilities and transport links.

Combining spacious accommodation, an exceptional plot size and exciting development potential, this well maintained bungalow represents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a peaceful location with the flexibility to create a long-term family home tailored to their needs.
