Property description

An extended four/five bedroom detached bungalow with driveway parking, double garage and established gardens situated on a country lane overlooking open fields on the edge of the village.

The bungalow was originally built in the 1960s and was extended in the 1990s by the previous owners and now has over 1,600 sq. ft. of versatile single storey accommodation. It has oil fired central heating. There was planning permission for a loft conversion which has since expired but could be re-submitted if desired. There are two principal reception rooms, a conservatory, a study/bedroom, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room, and a utility room with a door to the rear and access to a cloakroom. In addition, there are four bedrooms, the principal bedroom with an en suite and French doors to the garden. There is a three piece bathroom. A mezzanine is accessed via a loft hatch from the bedroom hallway. A gated entrance leads to a gravelled driveway providing parking and access to the double garage which has up and over doors, power and light connected and a side door. The gardens are a particular feature and include extensive lawned areas.

Reception Rooms

The sitting room has a feature fireplace and French doors to the garden. At one end of the sitting room an archway leads into the dining room and at the other sliding doors lead into the uPVC double glazed conservatory which has doors to the rear garden. There is also a study which overlooks the front and could alternatively be used as a fifth bedroom.

Gardens

The gardens wrap around the bungalow and are a major feature enclosed by a combination of mature hedgerow and post and rail fencing with views over open fields and countryside. They have been designed with an emphasis on outdoor living and are principally lawned with established borders and mature trees including apple and pear trees, a vegetable patch, and three patio areas. Agents' note: There is a Public footpath at the rear of the garden accessed by a five bar gate and pedestrian gate to the lane.

Situation and Schooling

Little Staughton has various local amenities that include a village pub, parish church and a local farm shop. Primary schooling is found in Keysoe with the village itself being within the Sharnbrook Upper School catchment.
