Property description

A period four/five bedroom detached former Coach House with driveway parking and a landscaped formal garden in a private setting in the village.

The property has been refurbished with careful attention paid to blending its character features, which include exposed timbers and an inglenook style fireplace, with modern amenities including a bespoke fitted kitchen, modern white sanitaryware and custom built double glazed windows. The accommodation has separate sitting and dining rooms, and another room which could be used as a third reception room or as a ground floor bedroom. It has dual aspect windows and an adjacent en suite shower room. On the first floor there are four further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The gravel driveway provides parking for five cars and is enclosed by a high wall to the side and by tall hedgerow to the front. Dwarf walls and box hedges surround raised borders planted with a variety of shrubs and bushes.

Kitchen/Dining Room

The kitchen is fitted in a bespoke range of Shaker style units by John Lewis with oak work surfaces incorporating a sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include an electric double oven, a gas hob with extractor over, a dishwasher and washing machine and there is space and plumbing for an American style fridge/freezer. Exposed oak flooring continues into the dining room which has further matching units, a wine chiller and a bespoke range of fitted bookshelves.

Gardens

A gated side access leads to the enclosed private rear garden which has been landscaped and includes a paved entertaining area extending across the rear of the house. There is a dry stone retaining wall and steps up to a split level lawned area with mature trees, shrubs and bushes. A bespoke log cabin/summerhouse at the rear has power and water connected.

Situation and Schooling

Sharnbrook village has two schools, including Sharnbrook Academy which is rated good by Ofsted. London Marathon winner Paula Radcliffe opened the Community Sports Centre in April 2005. Sharnbrook dates back to Saxon times and there is a Norman church, a bakery, farm shop, Co-Op supermarket, newsagent, grocer, pharmacy, florist and a hairdresser.
