Property description

A neo-Georgian five bedroom detached property with an integral double garage, driveway parking, and a south facing rear garden, located in a residential cul-de-sac in the south Bedfordshire village of Clifton.

The development has 16 homes which were built in the early 1980s. This house has been extended and fully refurbished by the current owners to create accommodation of over 3,840 sq. ft. presented over two floors. The ground floor has underfloor heating and an entrance hallway with doors leading to the office and dining room at the front of the house. It flows through to the open plan kitchen/breakfast room and sitting room with an entertainment bar area. Off the breakfast room is a family room and a food preparation kitchen/utility room. Also on the ground floor is a shower room. The first floor offers five bedrooms, three of which have en suite bath/shower rooms. There is also a family shower room which serves bedrooms four and five. The rear garden is fully enclosed and well established with a patio and a lawn. There are a covered BBQ area and a storage shed. To the front of the house is a driveway with parking for four cars and a double garage with electric doors.

Ground Floor

The Burbidge kitchen is designed by Kitchen Ergonomics and provides classically styled cabinets and drawers with Quartz counter tops. It incorporates a pantry, a larder cupboard, a full-height fridge, and two dishwashers. The preparation kitchen/utility room has a fan oven with a warming drawer and an additional dishwasher. The open plan sitting room has two sets of bi-fold doors and a bar area with a sink and undercounter fridge and freezer. There is air conditioning throughout the open plan areas. The family room has a log burning stove and a window overlooking the garden.

Situation and Schooling

Clifton was voted Bedfordshire Village of the Year in 2003, 2005 and 2009. It was once a centre for straw plaiting but is now mainly residential with a duck pond in the centre. The 14th- and 15th-century All Saints Church was restored in the 19th century. Other amenities include a lower school, a butcher, a post office/village store, an Indian restaurant, a garage and petrol station, a hairdresser and two public houses. The Clifton All Saints Academy offers schooling for children up to year 5 and The Samuel Whitbread Academy is in the nearby village of Shefford.
