If This Were Your Home - You'll step in through your oversized front door to find the original architecture very much in evidence. Gorgeous beams run overhead in the hallway, complementing the mint green colour palette, and you have clear sightlines to the skylit study ahead (more of that later).
Broadly proportioned, with plenty of incidental space, it's a superb introduction.
Turn left at the end and those timber beams continue in your dining room, joined by matching posts along the south east wall, set against a cream colour scheme. At more than 200 square feet, this is a wonderful spot for welcoming guests, but we still have your lounge next door to explore.
Dual aspect and, once again, generously proportioned at over 200 square feet, your lounge has direct access to your huge garden at the rear and leafy green views to the front. Plenty of natural light to complement the recessed spotlights overhead. Pride of place is taken by an imposing exposed brick hearth, home to a working woodburner under a vintage timber lintel.
Simply a great hosting space, all year round.
Staying inside for now, we'll head back into your dining room and on to your impressively lengthy kitchen and breakfast room. Your kitchen area is decked out with a generous quantity of hand built mint green cabinets, above and below hardwearing, glossy granite worktops.
A charming patchwork pastel backsplash sits over an Aga-style Everhot oven and there's plenty of space for the most capacious of fridge/freezers. An indispensable utility room lies off to one side, the ideal spot for laundry with more mint green cabinetry and patio doors to the garden.
Back in the twenty foot long main space, and a modest breakfast bar elegantly divides the kitchen and breakfast room, smoky grey porcelain tiles run underfoot throughout, and the dual aspect breakfast area basks in light from a bank of bi-folding patio doors.
Let's return to the hallway and your dedicated study. Skylit, secluded and spacious it's the perfect home working retreat and a real boon when it comes to the all-important work/life balance. If needed this room would also lend itself to being a downstairs fourth bedroom.
Finally, a modest, spare WC completes the ground floor.
Upstairs now, for your principal bedroom suite which actually starts just out in the hallway, with a luxurious walk-in wardrobe/dressing room, home to twin flanks of mirrored floor-to-ceiling wardrobes, and leafy views of your frontage.
The principal bedroom proper is next door at the end of the hall. 140 square foot and tri-aspect, with glorious countryside views all around, it's a splendid sleeping arrangement. The original architecture once again makes itself felt here, with lovingly preserved vintage beams overhead. There is a further array of built in wardrobes and cupboards as well as an airing cupboard.
Back out into the hallway, and opposite that covetable dressing room you have your family bathroom. Gleamingly finished in large format, smoky sandstone tiling from floor-to-ceiling, in here you have a tub as well as a dedicated shower cubicle.
To the front you have your remaining two bedrooms - a sizeable single bedroom, ideal for a child or nursery, as well as a bright, welcoming double room with integrated storage. Both have lovely views over the expansive greenery to the front.
Now let's explore your garden.
Accessible via the kitchen, breakfast room, living room, utility room and also from your gated side driveway, it all starts with a large courtyard, ideal for BBQs and dining al fresco. There's also a handy summerhouse and hidden workshop.
It all gives way to a truly vast lawn, secluded behind timber fencing and immaculately manicured screening greenery. Stretching away for almost three times the depth of your new home itself, approximately 300 feet in total, the lush grass is scattered with trellises, shrubberies and mature greenery.
Utterly secluded and overlooked by nothing but sky, it all backs onto endless fields and countryside, for complete peace and solace.
There is an impressive amount of parking available with the secure side yard/block paved driveway hidden behind electric gates as well as parking to the front of the property. The parking area in front is not shown on the deeds of the property but the current owners enjoy consistent use of.
Your Neighbourhood - Immediately to the front of your new home, large lawns set you back from the road and you have the heart of the village just a few minutes' walk down the road, marked by the Grade 1 listed medieval All Saints Church, adjacent recreation ground and community hall.
Less than five minutes' stroll, The Anchor pub is a popular, long-standing village fixture, and a great spot to enjoy a pint or a glass of wine looking out over the green.
Tilsworth Montesorri school caters for children from two and a half to five years of age and was recently rated 'Good' by Ofsted. It's just three minutes' walk away. You also have two 'Outstanding' and thirteen 'Good' primary/secondary schools within three miles.
Whipsnade Zoo is nearby for nature lovers, just a fifteen minute drive.
Finally, all the amenities, nightlife and travel connections of Leighton Buzzard are just a ten minute drive, including regular fast trains to London Euston in less than half an hour.
