Litcham Road, Mileham

This newly renovated bungalow in the heart of Mileham beautifully combines modern sophistication with the charm of rural living. Set well back from the road with a generous gravel driveway, the property offers privacy and peaceful surroundings. The front and rear gardens are immaculately maintained, creating a serene outdoor space for relaxation and entertaining.

Inside, a spacious hallway greets you with a dramatic vaulted window that floods the home with natural light. The living room is immediately captivating, with a bold navy-blue feature wall and a traditional log burner set on a tiled hearth, providing a perfect space to unwind. The layout is designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, featuring an open-plan space that flows from the living room into the dining area and kitchen, with glazed French doors leading out to the garden.

The newly fitted kitchen is a stylish hub, with crisp cabinetry, integrated appliances, and soft-toned worktops, bathed in light from dual windows and a Velux skylight. Karndean flooring continues throughout the space, contributing to the home's modern feel. This kitchen is not only practical but also a welcoming place to spend time, whether cooking a weeknight meal or hosting a gathering.

There are three generously sized double bedrooms, each offering ample flexibility. The main bedroom enjoys views over the garden and benefits from a built-in wardrobe with sliding doors. The remaining bedrooms also receive excellent natural light, with plush carpeting adding comfort. The quirky family bathroom features vibrant green tiling around the bath, paired with contemporary fittings, a rainfall-style shower, and a heated towel rail.

Significant investment has gone into enhancing the property’s sustainability, with an impressive suite of eco-conscious upgrades that combine modern efficiency with long-term savings. A robust solar system featuring 16 panels generates 6.4 kW of renewable power, supported by a substantial 12.3 kWh battery storage system neatly housed in the loft. Energy generated on-site not only powers the home but also contributes approximately £700 annually by feeding surplus electricity back into the grid.

An EV charger (Zappi) has been installed for convenient green motoring, while new A-rated double-glazed windows and electric heating throughout — including smart Bluetooth-controlled radiators in the bathroom and main bedroom, ensure warmth and efficiency. Added external wall insulation beneath the cladding, installed since the last EPC, is expected to boost the home’s energy performance rating to an A, placing it among the most energy-efficient homes on the market.

Outside, the front garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with the creation of a wildlife pond and the planting of 50m² of wildflower meadow turf in both the front and rear gardens, encouraging local wildlife. The rear garden is completely secluded, offering the perfect setting for outdoor dining, gardening, or simply relaxing. Mature hedging and fencing define the space, while the lawn and shrubs are meticulously maintained, creating a peaceful outdoor retreat.

The front of the property also offers secure off-road parking for multiple vehicles, with a wide driveway leading to the entrance. Additionally, the loft has been fully boarded out and fitted with a loft ladder, providing ample storage space.
