3 Bedroom Detached House

Tucked away in a popular residential setting just a short stroll from the heart of Marple Bridge, this beautifully presented detached bungalow offers far more space than its frontage suggests. Thoughtfully reconfigured over the years, it combines generous proportions with a stylish, contemporary feel that's equally suited to downsizers, families or anyone looking for flexible single-storey living.

At the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, thoughtfully designed for modern day living. Beautifully proportioned and flooded with natural light, it strikes the perfect balance between sociable open-plan living and clearly defined areas for cooking, dining and relaxing. French doors open directly onto the south-facing garden, allowing the outside to become a natural extension of the living space throughout the warmer months.

The kitchen is exceptionally well appointed with a five-burner gas hob, integrated Neff oven and microwave, dishwasher, fridge freezer and ample storage, making it as practical as it is attractive.

A wide, welcoming hallway immediately sets the tone, creating a real sense of space and providing useful built-in storage. There are three genuine double bedrooms, offering flexibility for growing families, guests or those working from home. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, occupying what was once the original lounge, complete with feature fireplace and dual aspect windows that flood the room with natural light while maintaining privacy through tasteful frosted glazing.

The accommodation is complemented by two bathrooms, including a stylish family bathroom with bath and vanity storage and a separate shower room, leading to a practical utility area.

For those looking to personalise the property over time, planning permission was granted in April 2024 for a garage conversion, removal of the existing side porch and the addition of a single-storey front extension with contemporary render and timber cladding. While the bungalow already offers generous, well-balanced accommodation, the approved plans provide an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to further enhance the home should their needs evolve.

Outside, the south-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a wonderfully private outdoor space. Predominantly laid to lawn with established planting, raised beds and two separate seating areas, it offers plenty of room for relaxing, entertaining or simply enjoying the sunshine throughout the day. Three garden sheds provide excellent storage, while the garage can also be accessed directly from the garden.

To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking alongside the garage, while the location itself is particularly appealing. Marple Bridge village, local cafés, independent shops, scenic countryside walks and well-regarded schools are all within easy reach, making this a home that combines lifestyle with everyday convenience.

Bungalows like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find. Spacious, beautifully maintained and thoughtfully extended, this is a home that offers the ease of single-storey living without compromising on space, style or entertaining.
