3 bedroom detached house

Sycamore Cottage is a unique opportunity to acquire a Grade II listed detached cottage in the popular North Bedfordshire village of Thurleigh.

The cottage is an excellent example of a character property. It has been enlarged with a peg tiled roof extension with timber clad elevations with the original cottage having white washed walls and a newly thatched roof. Features are numerous and include various inglenook fireplaces with wood burning stoves, exposed beams, wooden floors and latch and braced doors.

The oldest part of the cottage has three interlinking reception rooms in addition to a family room which is located off the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of farmhouse style units which are complemented by granite worktops and a quarry tiled floor. There is space for a Rangemaster style cooker.

There are three bedrooms accessed via three separate staircases with the master having an adjoining en suite bathroom and bedroom two has an adjacent bathroom accessed via a small landing area.

Externally the whole site extends to around a quarter an acre. There is a shared drive serving the cottage and one other property and there are two parking spaces and a storage barn.
The majority of the rear garden is laid to lawn and there are a variety of shrubs, trees and plants including mature hedgerows.

Thurleigh is a popular village located some six miles from Bedford's town centre where excellent recreational, schooling and other opportunities exist including Bedford's mainline station offering regular services to London's St Pancras International from forty-one minutes.

Closer to home the village has its own Primary School, village hall, sports and social club and farm shop and falls in to the Sharnbrook Academy catchment area.
