3 bed detached bungalow for sale

Jubilee Meadow, St. Austell PL25

There's a lot to be said for a home where everything happens on one level.

Set within the popular Jubilee Meadow development and with no onward chain, this detached three-bedroom bungalow combines generous accommodation with a wonderfully sociable open-plan layout, good-sized gardens, garage and driveway parking. It's been extremely well cared for, with the current owners also investing in some of the important improvements that aren't always immediately visible - including new windows throughout and a new boiler.

Step inside and the sense of space becomes apparent almost immediately.

Rather than dividing the main living accommodation into a collection of smaller rooms, the heart of the bungalow has been opened up to create one large, flowing space for cooking, eating and relaxing.

At one end, the lounge provides somewhere comfortable to settle into, with a wood-burning stove creating a natural focal point through the colder months. A south-facing window brings plenty of natural light into the room, giving the space a bright and welcoming feel throughout the day.

From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the dining area, where there's ample room for a proper dining table without compromising the living space. Sliding doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating an easy connection between inside and out and making the whole area particularly enjoyable during the warmer months.

The modern kitchen completes this open-plan space. Well designed with plenty of cabinetry, storage and preparation space, it also incorporates a breakfast bar - somewhere for a quick coffee in the morning or for friends to sit while dinner is being prepared.

It's an arrangement that works equally well when you're home alone as it does when the house is full of family and friends.

The bedrooms sit separately from the main living accommodation, helping to give this side of the bungalow a quieter feel.

The principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden and benefits from built-in storage, while the second bedroom is another comfortable double, currently demonstrating how easily the accommodation can adapt to home working. The third bedroom is a generous single with its own built-in wardrobe, making it equally useful as a child's room, guest bedroom, dressing room or additional office.

A shower room serves the bedrooms, while the additional WC close to the entrance is a particularly useful extra for both everyday life and visiting guests.

Outside, there's considerably more space than many modern bungalows provide.

The rear garden is generous and arranged across two levels, with areas of lawn and plenty of opportunity to create different places to sit and follow the sunshine throughout the day. Whether you're gardening, entertaining, giving children or grandchildren somewhere to play, or simply enjoying a quiet afternoon outside, there's enough space for the garden to be properly used.

Paths provide access around the bungalow and lead to the garage, which benefits from both a traditional up-and-over door and separate pedestrian access from the garden.

At the front, further lawned garden gives the property an attractive approach, while the driveway provides private off-road parking and access to the garage.

The replacement windows throughout and new boiler are significant additions, complementing a home that's already been carefully maintained and allowing the next owners to enjoy the property without immediately facing some of the larger expenses associated with buying an established home.

Ultimately, it's the balance here that works so well.

Three bedrooms, genuinely sociable open-plan living, a wood-burning stove, generous gardens, garage and parking - all on one level.

For buyers searching for a detached bungalow with enough space to enjoy without sacrificing practicality, this is a home that deserves to be seen in person
