Property description

A period three bedroom extended Duke Of Bedford cottage, set back from the road with gardens of approximately 0.39 acres and panoramic views over surrounding fields and countryside.

The cottage has been sympathetically enlarged and refurbished by the current owners with careful attention paid to blending period features including lattice style windows and ledge and brace doors, with modern day amenities such as a refitted kitchen and modern sanitaryware. The 1,196 sq. ft. of versatile accommodation includes a separate sitting room with a log burning stove, a dining room and a garden room off the kitchen which is used as a breakfast room/study. There is also a conservatory opening onto the rear terrace and a ground floor shower room. On the first floor, all three bedrooms have good storage and views of both the gardens and countryside. There is also a family bathroom. A timber five bar gate leads to the gravel driveway providing parking and access to the detached double width garage which has two up and over doors and power connected.

Kitchen and Garden Room

The kitchen has a range of cream fronted Shaker style units with hardwood work surfaces incorporating a sink, a range of wall shelves for additional storage, and a built-in pantry cupboard. There is an integrated electric double oven and hob, and space for a freestanding fridge. The garden room has a desk area, fitted wall shelves and space and plumbing for a washing machine. It has a part vaulted ceiling with inset Velux skylights, and glazed doors to the rear garden.

Gardens

The gardens are a particular feature and have been created by the owners during their 47 year’ ownership. They are almost fully enclosed by mature hedgerow, and the front has a lawned area with well stocked borders and mature trees, paved outdoor entertaining and seating areas and an ornamental fish pond. The rear garden has a lawned area, a natural meadow with wild flowers and mature trees, vegetable borders and a canopied outdoor seating area with a wood burning stove.

Situation and Schooling

The property is within 1.6 miles of Box End water park and is within 5 minutes’ drive of shops and supermarkets. Bedford or Milton Keynes have more comprehensive shopping and leisure facilities. Bedford station is about 4 miles away and has services to St Pancras International. The A421 is 2 miles away for access to junction 13 of the M1 and the A1 to the north. Schools include the Harpur Trust Schools in Bedford. Schools in Uppingham, Oundle, Oakham, Rugby, Stowe or Wellingborough are all within an hour’s drive.
