An impressive and generously proportioned two-bedroom detached bungalow, occupying a substantial plot within this highly sought-after residential area. Available with the advantage of no upward chain, the property offers an exciting opportunity for purchasers seeking spacious, versatile accommodation with considerable potential for modernisation, remodelling or extension, subject to the necessary consents.
The property would equally suit those wishing to acquire a sizeable bungalow that can be enjoyed in its current form. Set within a large, private garden and enjoying attractive far-reaching views towards the surrounding countryside, only a detailed internal inspection will reveal the full extent of the accommodation and potential on offer.
Mercier Drive is ideally positioned for access to an excellent range of local shops, cafés, public transport links and other amenities. The property is also conveniently placed for the surrounding countryside and the beautiful Peak District National Park.
A welcoming entrance hallway provides access to the principal ground-floor rooms and features a pull-down ladder leading to the converted loft accommodation.
The spacious lounge is a particularly light and airy reception room, with a large front-facing bay window providing an abundance of natural light. Sliding glazed double doors open into the dining room, which could alternatively be used as a second ground-floor bedroom. This generous and versatile room also features sliding patio doors leading into the conservatory.
Enjoying attractive views across the rear garden and towards the rolling countryside beyond, the conservatory is uPVC double glazed to three sides and provides an appealing additional seating area. French doors open directly onto the rear patio, creating a natural connection between the accommodation and garden.
The kitchen is fitted with a good range of wall and base units and benefits from a large rear-facing window framing the far-reaching views. A side-facing entrance door provides convenient access to the exterior.
Completing the ground-floor accommodation is a fully tiled shower room, comprising a low-flush WC, pedestal wash hand basin and shower enclosure, together with a side-facing obscure glazed window.
The loft accommodation is accessed from the entrance hallway by a pull-down ladder. This level includes a landing area with a front-facing window and two additional rooms, both currently arranged as bedrooms. Each room benefits from built-in storage and access into the eaves. There is also a useful WC with a low-flush WC and wash hand basin.
Externally, the property occupies a particularly generous plot. To the front is a sizeable block-paved driveway providing ample off-road parking and giving access to the detached garage. The garage features large timber double doors and a separate side entrance door. An attached store is positioned to the rear of the garage and can be accessed from the rear patio.
The impressive rear garden is a notable feature of the property. An attractive paved patio immediately adjoins the bungalow, with steps descending to an extensive lawn surrounded by a wide variety of mature plants, shrubs and established borders. Several additional patio and seating areas provide excellent spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation.
This lovely, sunny garden enjoys a high degree of privacy, with mature hedging forming the boundaries on all three sides. Its size provides excellent potential for further landscaping or extension of the existing property, subject to any required planning permission.
Offering generous accommodation, extensive gardens, attractive views and considerable potential, this individual detached bungalow represents a rare opportunity within one of Sheffield's most desirable residential locations.
