Positioned at the heart of this popular village, a short distance from the riverside, the Anchorage is a recently refurbished bungalow with beautifully mature gardens that surround the property on all sides.

A useful porch gives access to the entrance hall which leads through to the remainder of the accommodation, fitted with newly replaced doors and double glazed windows. The sitting room benefits from plenty of natural light from a large window which allows for views over the front garden, along with a brick-built fireplace with open fire, giving this a cosy yet modern feel. The kitchen/breakfast room opens up to a dining area and has views and access into the rear garden, making this an ideal spot for entertaining. Of particular note, the kitchen has been newly fitted with shaker style cabinetry and integrated appliances, including double oven and an induction hob, with spotlight fixtures.

Down the hall are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all of which enjoy views over the gardens. One of the bedrooms is currently used as an office and can conveniently be used as a snug or bedroom subject to requirement. There is also a family bathroom, which allows space for washer/dryer in a built in cupboard.

This property has 0.2 acres of land.
