This is a well-presented and deceptively spacious dormer bungalow offering family accommodation in the popular and sought-after village of Plumpton in the Petteril Valley.

Andrew Low, branch manager of selling agents H&H King, said: "The property is handily located for access to Penrith, Carlisle and onward travel via the M6 and has well-thought-out and flexible accommodation.

"It also benefits from established and manageable gardens and off-road parking for several cars on a driveway in addition to a garage."

Romane sits within a rural location and has pleasant open views to front and back. It has been carefully extended to create a most useful and appealing home.

The accommodation briefly comprises a good-sized lounge, dining kitchen, two bedrooms on the ground floor and two in the dormer section.

The front doors opens into an entrance hall with understairs cupboard and parquet flooring which flows through to the lounge which has coving to the ceiling a large picture window to make the most of the pleasant views.

The kitchen-diner has a range of fitted wall and floor units in light-coloured wood with complementary worktops and a door in a darker shade.

There is ample space for an American-style fridge-freezer and a table and chairs with plumbing for a washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher.

The floor is tiled and a second door leads to a porch at the side of the bungalow which opens to the garden.

The two ground-floor bedrooms are both doubles. One at the front of the property boasts parquet flooring while the other has the benefit of a range of built-in cupboards.

The three-piece bathroom on this level is light and airy with part-tiled walls and a tiled floor.

Stairs lead from the entrance hall to the first floor where there is a storage cupboard and doors to the two spacious remaining double bedrooms, one with storage in the eaves and both illuminated by skylights.

Andrew added: "The gardens to front and back of Romane are low-maintenance with lawned and paved areas, established flower beds and a decked sitting platform while the garage is detached with an up-and-over door.

"The River Petteril, which peacefully winds its way through the beautiful Eden Valley, has benefited from a clean-up and tree-planting to boost trout numbers and just north of Plumpton are the remains of the Roman fort of Voreda, giving this property added interest to a range of buyers."
