Property description
A 1960s architect designed four bedroom detached house on a landscaped 0.18 acres plot with views to the front over Bedford's Victorian Park and walking distance from the Harpur Trust Schools.
There is approximately 2,810 sq. ft. of accommodation over three floors. Steps up from the secure gated entrance leads into the ground floor, which has an open plan sitting room and a custom built kitchen/breakfast/dining room by Tom Howley which includes a balcony for alfresco dining and entertaining. Staircases lead to the first and lower ground floors. The lower ground floor has an open plan family room, a study for working from home, a separate utility room and a shower room as well as access to the double garage. This floor could easily be adapted for use as an independent annexe if required. On the first floor all four double bedrooms have custom built wardrobes. The principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, and there is a four piece bathroom. The property is fully enclosed at the front by high iron railings with gates to a driveway providing parking and access to the double garage.
Reception Hall and Reception Rooms
The reception hall has exposed oak flooring which continues into the dual aspect sitting room which has a feature fireplace, overlooks the Victorian park to the front and has glazed sliding doors to a balcony with views of the rear garden. The family room also has exposed oak flooring and a bay with glazed sliding doors to an outdoor entertaining terrace. The study has a range of bespoke furniture and also has glazed doors to the rear garden.
Kitchen/Breakfast/Dining Room
The kitchen is by Tom Howley and has a custom built range of Shaker style units, including an island with a breakfast bar, all with granite worksurfaces incorporating a sink and drainer. Integrated Miele appliances include an electric oven, microwave, induction hob with extractor over, coffee machine, wine chiller and an American style fridge/freezer. Limestone flooring continues into the dining area which has a dresser and sliding doors to a balcony with views of the garden.
Gardens
The professionally landscaped front garden is low maintenance with a paved area and a box hedge border with an inset cherry tree. A secure gated side access leads to the landscaped rear garden which is a major feature of the property and has a Limestone patio and a lawn with borders. There are two other seating areas, one under a gazebo. There is also a timber shed/workshop with power and a second timber shed. The garden is fully enclosed by a combination of walls and fences.
Situation and Schooling
Park Avenue is a minutes' walk from Bedford's Victorian park and 5 minutes' walk from Robinson Swimming Pool. The town centre and the Harpur Trust schools are within 10 minutes walk and the property is also within walking distance of the railway station.
