Why buy this home?
Looking at this home from the outside, you immediately get that ‘cosy cottage’ feel. Georgian style windows, a picket fence, patterned brickwork and a wooden door greet you as you approach from the gravelled path. There is also a slated area where you can place flower pots or beds to add some colour to the front of the property.
The front door leads into an entrance hall which has space to keep your coats and shoes. Having the entrance hall means that you do not walk straight into the living room which can be a common issue with a period property.
Entering the living room, you can’t help but get a warm, cosy feeling from it – everything you would expect from a cottage. Your eyes are immediately drawn to the exposed brick chimney breast which houses a log burner. There is ample space for a sofa and the addition of a chair in the corner of the room would make an ideal place to enjoy a good book.
Leading on from the living area is the sociable kitchen/diner where you can happily entertain friends and family. The character continues into this room with an unused fireplace providing the perfect spot to position the dining table. There is also storage built into it on one side and shelving on the other. The kitchen area has a rustic, country style feel and is fitted with wooden units and work surfaces. There is a ceramic butler sink that enhances the country feel further and there are subway tiles that provide a splash back around the sink and oven. There is space for a fridge/freezer, washing machine and a free-standing oven. Stone effect flooring flows through the kitchen/diner and bi-folding doors lead out to a decked area in the garden, which becomes an extension of the home in the warmer months.
The converted cellar offers flexibility to the new owner. Currently being used as a playroom, it could be used as a games room, an office, or simply another lounge should there be a clash of TV programmes!
Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom. The main bedroom is at the front of the home and has enough space for a king-size bed and bedside tables. It has exposed floorboards, shutters over the window and you could have a wardrobe in the recess of the chimney breast. The second bedroom is currently used as a child’s bedroom but would comfortably take a double bed and all the furniture you would need. Bedroom three is a single bedroom but would make a great nursery if needed. There is a fitted wardrobe that runs the length of the room so if you did not need three bedrooms, this could be used as a wonderful dressing room.
The bathroom is spacious and includes a free-standing bath, a wash hand basin with vanity storage, and a large walk-in shower cubicle with a rainfall shower. There is a fitted storage unit where you can keep your cosmetics and a TV fitted at the bottom of the bath so you can even relax whilst watching your favourite TV show.
The rear garden measures approximately 80ft and has two designated areas separated by parking for the property. The decked and patio area is ideal for social events such as BBQs or somewhere simply to enjoy the sunshine on a garden sofa. The gravelled parking area for two cars has steps leading up to a lawn with two further decked areas where children can play. This section of the garden would be great for a keen gardener, especially someone who would like to grow their own produce as it benefits from lots of sunlight. Please note that the parking is shared with the neighbour.
More about the location...
Heath and Reach is a historic village with more than six hundred homes and is two miles north of Leighton Buzzard. The nearest city is Milton Keynes which is ten miles away. Easy links to the A5 and M1 make it a sought-after spot for commuters. The village itself benefits from local amenities, including a well-stocked Co-op shop with a post office, pubs and a hairdresser as well as an outstanding rated lower school founded in 1846. Heath & Reach has everything you would need but you are also just a short drive from the main town of Leighton Buzzard with mainline rail services to London Euston in as little as 32 minutes. The village is a short walk to one of Leighton Buzzard’s biggest treasures - Rushmere Country Park which is a great place to discover nature and enjoy the outdoors. There is also a sports association with tennis courts, playing fields and pavilion and a separate recreation ground. Heath & Reach benefits from several community use meadows, public footpaths and bridleways. There is a fishing club at the ten-acre Jones Lake. Leighton Buzzard Golf Club lies just to the southwest of the village. Heath and Reach is also home to a heritage narrow gauge railway, which maintains the largest collection of narrow-gauge locomotives in the UK.

About this agent
Lion Estates - Milton Keynes
314 Midsummer Boulevard
Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire
MK9 2UB
01908 951942Lion Estates is a team of estate agents offering the most personal service in the industry. Our goal is to cover our costs by adding value in the form of a higher sales price, better communication and reduce stress for our clients. We aim to be your chosen property professional for life, offering advice and support even when you're not looking to move home. A New Breed Of Estate Agent It's no secret that estate agents in the UK don't have the best reputation compared to other countries across the world... We believe this is down to the high transactional nature of the typical estate agency business model. The need to sell high levels of homes results in poor marketing, worse communication and under-performance which leaves clients feeling short-changed. The agent who values your home and wins your trust isn't the agent who shows potential buyers around your home and goes on to negotiate your sales price. This crucial task falls to the least experienced staff member, who more often than not knows nothing about your home and hopes the potential buyer will decide to offer full asking price off their own back. Don't blame the agent though; they are likely conducting viewings on 30 - 50 homes, such is their business model, so it's impossible for them to know every detail about every home. But the person it impacts the most is the person who is paying the agent's fee - you. This, however, is through choice and not necessity - there is a better way. Imagine a service designed around what's best for the client, always putting your needs first. A truly personal service tailored to the different needs of each client as, after all, everyone's reason for moving is different. Not only that but every home is different - even if you have the same house style as someone else on your street, no other home has the same plot, orientation and feel of your home. You and your home are unique, and we for one believe you deserve to be treated like it. The estate agency industry has failed to evolve over the last 40 + years. It has failed to keep up with the changing needs of clients as the world around us has changed rapidly. Finally that change has come - welcome to the era of the personal estate agent.
