WATCH THE VIDEO TOUR FOR THIS PROPERTY

Welcome to 17 Harris Drive, a two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in the popular residential area of Unsworth, Bury. Extensively refurbished in 2020, the property has been transformed both inside and out, bringing together contemporary interiors, bespoke features and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces.

The attention to detail is evident throughout, from the individually designed kitchen and fitted bedroom furniture to the feature media wall and luxurious four-piece bathroom. Outside, a south-facing landscaped garden provides an inviting space for relaxing and entertaining, while a substantial driveway and detached garage offer plenty of practicality.

With accommodation arranged entirely on one level and the amenities of Whitefield, local schools and transport connections all within reach, this is a home that combines considered design with everyday convenience.

A Contemporary Welcome

The property has a distinctive exterior, finished in K Rend with contrasting Italian porcelain feature tiling that gives the bungalow a clean, contemporary appearance.

A substantial block-paved driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles, while powder-coated aluminium gates and fencing create a smart finish and provide access along the side of the property to the detached garage.

The main entrance is positioned to the side, opening directly into the kitchen and breakfast room, where the quality of the refurbishment becomes immediately apparent.

Space to Relax

Positioned to the front of the bungalow, the lounge is a comfortable and carefully arranged living space, with a large window bringing in natural light.

The focal point is a bespoke media wall incorporating a Celsi electric living flame fire, integrated storage drawers and feature LED lighting. Decorative recesses filled with hand-cut, kiln-dried logs add texture and warmth to the design, creating an attractive backdrop for evenings at home.

The room has been planned to accommodate comfortable seating without compromising the sense of space, making it equally suited to quiet evenings or spending time with family and friends.

A Kitchen with Attention to Detail

Fitted by Kitchens by Portfolio, the kitchen and breakfast room has been carefully planned to make the most of the available space, combining a distinctive finish with practical storage and generous work surfaces.

Cabinetry in a rich Hammond blue is complemented by natural oak end panels and a bespoke oak breakfast bar, creating a warm contrast against the Infiniti stone quartz worktops. Italian porcelain floor tiles complete the contemporary finish.

Integrated NEFF appliances include an oven, microwave, induction hob and washing machine, alongside an Elica extractor. Thoughtful storage solutions, including pull-out larder units and internal organisers, help keep the kitchen practical and uncluttered.

The breakfast bar provides a natural place for morning coffee, casual meals or catching up at the end of the day, while the room also connects with the lounge and the bedrooms beyond.

Two Bedrooms & a Luxurious Bathroom

Both bedrooms are positioned towards the rear of the bungalow, away from the main living areas, and benefit from fitted wardrobes with sliding doors and integrated storage.

The principal bedroom provides space for a double bed alongside its fitted furniture, while the second bedroom offers flexibility for guests, hobbies or working from home. A built-in home office area makes particularly good use of this room, providing a dedicated workspace without the need for a separate study.

Serving both bedrooms is a luxurious four-piece bathroom, finished with Italian gold Calacatta-effect porcelain tiles across the walls and floor.

A freestanding bath takes centre stage, with a built-in ProofVision television positioned for watching while enjoying a long soak. A separate shower, washbasin and WC complete the suite, while carefully positioned feature lighting adds to the contemporary, hotel-inspired finish.

A Garden Made for Entertaining

The south-facing rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped over two levels, with Italian porcelain paving creating an attractive, low-maintenance space for relaxing and entertaining.

The upper terrace features an aluminium pergola with an adjustable opening roof and side screen, providing a comfortable setting for outdoor dining. A decorative water feature and remote-controlled LED lighting add to the atmosphere, while a composite-built garden store benefits from power and lighting.

A detached garage provides further versatility, with insulation, heating, LED lighting and a remotely operated electric door. A separate area to the rear is currently used as a home gym, offering additional space for hobbies, exercise or storage.
