OVERVIEW
Being one of the last properties in Arnside and surrounded by trees and woodland, Rivermede is truly a special property. Suitable for a range of buyers, the accommodation is across one level but is much more than a standard bungalow. The accommodation centres around the impressive open plan lounge dining kitchen space with lovely views and vaulted ceiling to the lounge area. The bedrooms are to either end of the bungalow and there are two bathroom facilities - this is perfect for an extended family, visitors or multi-generational living. A useful utility room keeps the kitchen clutter free and there are two external stores. The garden extends mainly to the front with an expansive lawn, mature yew trees and borders filled with wildlife friendly plants. Neutrally decorated throughout, UPVC double glazed and gas centrally heated.
