Description
Occupying a prime position on one of Bangor West´s most prestigious addresses, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home in an area where bungalows are an increasingly sought-after commodity. While in need of modernisation, the property sits on a generous, mature site and provides enormous potential for buyers wishing to create a bespoke home tailored to their own style and needs.
The accommodation is both spacious and versatile, with three reception rooms that allow for flexible use depending on lifestyle requirements. Large bay windows, sliding doors, and dual aspect outlooks connect the home beautifully with its setting, ensuring natural light throughout and capturing views across the mature gardens and towards Bangor Bay. One of the bedrooms could also easily be adapted as a study or home office, perfect for modern family life or those seeking a comfortable space for remote working.
The gardens surrounding the property are a particular feature. Mature lawns, shrubs, and rockery planting frame the home, while the south-facing rear garden provides an exceptionally private and sunny space for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the views. From here, vistas extend across Bangor Bay and on clear days as far as the coast of Scotland. A summer house and additional outbuildings enhance the practicality of the outside space.
Unusually for a property of this style and age, the home benefits from dual access - with pedestrian approach from Farnham Road and vehicular access from Tennyson Avenue. To the rear, there is valuable off-street parking, an increasingly rare advantage in this area, as well as further garden space for storage or landscaping potential.
Character features such as period fireplaces, cornice ceilings, and feature glazing remain intact, adding charm and offering inspiration for any modernisation project.
