Property description

A four bedroom detached former engine barn, accessed via a tree lined drive past the historic Crawley Grange, with a double garage, a detached home office/studio and approximately 3 acres of formal gardens and paddock land.

The property consists of the old mid 19th century Engine Shed and a newer section built in the 1970s. It combines the character of an older building with contemporary amenities of modern family life and is in a peaceful private setting within the grounds of Crawley Grange which was built in 1526 for Cardinal Wolsey and features in Pevsner’s Buildings of England. The split level hall has access to four double bedrooms, two with en suites, and a Jack and Jill family bathroom. The ground floor also has a utility/boot room, and an open plan family/garden room with oak flooring. On the first floor there is a cloakroom, a nearly 26 ft. kitchen/breakfast room, and a triple aspect sitting room with panoramic views over the garden and surrounding countryside. The sitting room has a feature fireplace with a multi fuel stove, and bespoke fitted shelving. Both rooms have high vaulted ceilings. Outbuildings include an over 26 ft. garage and a home office/studio with water and electricity.

Kitchen/Breakfast Room

The kitchen/breakfast room has an extensive range of base units with oak work surfaces incorporating a Franke double sink and drainer. Built-in appliances include two single self-cleaning ovens, a five ring induction hob, a warming drawer, a microwave, a dishwasher, a wine cooler and a fridge. There is oak flooring, a window to the rear with a window seat, and a window to the front with views over the paddocks.

Principal Bedroom

The triple aspect principal bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe, double doors and a window to the side patio, a window to the main garden, and two windows to the courtyard. The fully tiled en suite has a bath, a double shower cubicle with a fitted shower, a WC, a double vanity wash basin, a heated towel rail, inset ceiling spotlights, and an obscure glazed window to the rear.

Outside

A gravelled driveway leads to the double garage which has an electric door, power and light, an EV charging point, and a door to the side. The walled courtyard garden is block paved with a water feature, and access to the drive. The formal garden is mainly laid to lawn with shaped flower and shrub beds, and an ornamental pond. The studio, which is currently used as an office, has power, lighting and water supply, and a wash basin. The paddock is approximately 2 acres and is fully fenced with separate vehicle access.

Situation and Schooling

The property is within 15 minutes’ drive of Milton Keynes or 20 minutes’ drive from Bedford for commuter trains to London, and is only 10 minutes’ drive from the M1. It is within walking distance of amenities in the village of North Crawley which has a village shop, church, a public house, a cricket club, circular walks and a primary school. The property is in the catchment area for Ousedale secondary school in Newport Pagnell (4 miles) and the Bedford Harpur Trust schools are 10 miles away.
