Old Fieldridge Cottage welcomes you with a gravel driveway providing ample parking space.
Upon entering the property through the back door, you are greeted by a utility room leading to the double-aspect kitchen. Both benefit from bespoke designed, hand-made and hand-painted cabinetry, granite work surfaces, and high-end built-in appliances. The kitchen leads through to a cosy family room with a wood burner.
Continuing through, you will find a dining room with an open fire and French doors leading to a sitting room with a wood burner and attractive meadow views.
The sitting room has French doors, which open to a bright conservatory with bi-fold doors, providing access to the back garden patio.
On the first floor, a corridor leads to all the rooms.
You will find a spacious principal bedroom with dual aspects, an en suite bathroom, and stunning meadow views to one side.
The second bedroom is also double aspect, with built-in storage and an additional toilet.
To the right of the staircase are two more double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate toilet.
Finally, the second floor offers an ample loft space that spans the entire house, featuring generous ceiling height.
Outside
Stepping out of the conservatory's bi-folding doors, you're greeted with the first of two outdoor living areas within an enclosed and private garden with well-stocked flower beds. Walking under the rose and vine-covered archway leads you to a semi-circular patio, perfect for al fresco dining.
A gravel pathway cuts through the lawn to a picturesque flower meadow on your left, behind a five-bar gate.
A greenhouse (available via separate negotiation) sits within the meadow, with a small seating area outside. Beyond the wildflower meadow is a fenced-off vegetable patch, fruit cage, and garden shed.
Behind an attractive beech hedge is an orchard to the right of the gravel driveway, mainly laid to lawn with fruit trees. In the corner of the orchard, a gateway leads to a footpath into the woodland surrounding the property on three sides.
A useful workshop is at the end of the gravel driveway to your right.
Additionally, a converted garage, currently used as a studio and office, has substantial roof space above and is suitable for storage. This building offers the potential for further development with the necessary planning permissions.
Old Fieldridge Cottage is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, set back from the road near the hamlet of Shefford Woodlands.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
