Kings Close, Longburton, Sherborne, DT9

A detached three double bedroom bungalow in excellent order throughout occupying a glorious ¼ acre plot, garage and parking.

30 Kings Close is thought to have been built in 1975 as part of an attractive development of houses and bungalows in the favoured village of Longburton, which is only 3 miles from the beautiful Abbey town of Sherborne. The bungalow occupies a private position within the development, away from passing traffic and enjoys a wonderful aspect over the established gardens which have a beautiful wooded backdrop. In recent years the property has undergone a comprehensive programme of renewal and refurbishment to create a really lovely home. The renovation work has taken in all high cost items to include a contemporary fitted kitchen, utility room and shower room, ?Rointe’ electric wall mounted heating, a new hot water cylinder and water softener,
replacement of all internal doors and new carpets and flooring throughout. The entrance hall has extensive storage which includes a large walk in storeroom. The sitting/dining room has superb picture windows with uplifting views across the garden. To the centre of the room there is a striking LPG log effect stove which is a lovely addition for the cosy winter months, and the dining area can comfortable accommodate a family sized table. The kitchen flows around from the living area and has been updated throughout with a range of white high gloss contemporary cupboards and drawers with work surfaces over, inset 1 ½ bowl sink and drainer and additional matching tall cupboards and breakfast bar. Integral appliances include an electric oven, Bosch microwave and hob, slim line dishwasher and space for a fridge freezer. A separate utility room has matching cupboards and space for a washing machine and a dryer and there is a wc and access to the garden.
The three bedrooms are all of double proportion and have great storage options, the main bedroom has an excellent walk in wardrobe as well as built in wardrobes. The bedrooms are served by a generous and modern well designed shower room which is partly tiled and has a large walk in shower cubicle with fixed glass screen, monsoon shower head and shower attachment.
