A five-bed chalet-style bungalow has come up for sale in Oulton Broad near Lowestoft priced at £650,000 – and the selling agents say it is the “ultimate home” for entertaining and hosting.

A spokesperson for Minors & Brady says that the property, located off Chestnut Avenue, is deceptively spacious after being “extraordinarily renovated and extended” to an impressive scale.

The heart of the home is its open-plan living space at the rear, which extends to over 36 ft and incorporates a high-spec kitchen, diner and living room.

Seven-metre wide sliding doors allow easy access to the garden and bathe the space in loads of natural light.

The kitchen itself is practical and stylish but also really sociable, allowing the chef of the house to enjoy mingling with guests while they cook.

It’s kitted out with a range of matching high-gloss wall and base units, quality wood work surfaces and two integrated eye-level ovens, as well as a warming drawer, hob, dishwasher and space for a full-size American-style fridge/freezer.

A large island in the centre offers lots of storage space, high-stool seating and a wine chiller – and it's high-tech too, featuring USB charging sockets and power points.

The adjacent reception area is fitted with surround sound speakers, underfloor heating and a TV point, plus lots of space for free-standing dining furniture and even a sofa.

Further living space is provided by a completely separate living room, which is large in size and features an exposed brick fireplace with an inset woodburner and a large, bay-fronted window which overlooks the front of the property.

The ground floor is completed by an entrance hall, utility room, cloakroom and two bedrooms, although one of these could easily be transformed into a playroom or perhaps a study – particularly if new owners need to work from home.

Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and a sizeable loft room, which could be converted into further bedroom space, subject to planning.

The three existing bedrooms are all fitted with carpet, Velux windows and power and USB points.

The master bedroom, which extends to over 20 ft, also has a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden, a generously-sized walk-in wardrobe and a four-piece en suite which includes twin basins, an open-plan walk-in shower and a free-standing bath.

A spokesperson for Minors & Brady says that the property offers “maximum kerb appeal”, with a large resin driveway offering ample off-road parking and gated access to the rear garden on either side.

The rear garden has been well-maintained and is relatively low maintenance, with a patio, lawn and well-stocked beds and borders.

It also includes a workshop and hot tub area.
