Why buy this home?
You would be forgiven for not knowing that this home is here, as it is tucked away just a stone’s throw from Leighton Buzzard High Street. The train station can be reached by foot in approximately 10 minutes and Parsons Recreational Ground is quite literally on your doorstep. If you have been looking for the convenience of town centre living without being right in the thick of it, this house is for you.
Being so close to Parsons Rec, it is important that you have somewhere to remove coats and muddy shoes and the entrance hall in this home provides enough space to do that.
On the right-hand side of the entrance hall, you will find the kitchen, which for a property of this size has ample storage units and work top space. With a work surface running the length of one wall, this kitchen allows more than one person to be cooking without being on top of each other. There is a fitted electric oven, electric hob, cooker hood, fridge, and a freezer. There is additional space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and a slim line dishwasher. There is a large under stairs storage cupboard which houses the water tank but there is still enough space to store other items such as your vacuum cleaner and ironing board.
Across from the kitchen is the living area which is a cosy space in which to put your feet up at the end of a busy day. Sash windows to the front, Georgian style French doors leading out to the garden, and wooden flooring add character to a contemporary room.
There is also an all-important second toilet on the ground floor.
The low-maintenance, walled garden is completely private. There is an area to set up your garden furniture and host friends, and a gate leads to the front of the property where you can easily access Parsons Rec should you want more outside space to enjoy.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a shower room. The main bedroom comfortably fits a double bed and all the bedroom furniture you would require. Vaulted ceilings enhance the feeling of space, and the addition of a wooden beam gives a rustic finish. The second bedroom currently includes a small double bed, while there is additional space for a wardrobe. However, a single bed would be better suited to this room. A spacious shower room is fitted with a large walk-in shower cubicle, a toilet, and a wash hand basin. It also has a Velux window which provides light and ventilation.
Although the location of this home means that it isn’t essential that you have a car, there is the bonus of an allocated parking space. Something usually unheard of with town centre living!
More about the location...
Leighton Buzzard is a market town in Bedfordshire, near the Chiltern Hills and lying between Aylesbury, Tring, Dunstable and Milton Keynes.
The area has become an increasingly popular place to relocate to for workers from London, helped in part by its reasonably priced housing – a big attraction for young professional couples wanting to get their foot on the property ladder. Leighton Buzzard provides great access to the countryside and other parts of the UK like London, Birmingham, Cambridge and Oxford.
Leighton Buzzard is close to the M1 motorway and A5 road, and is served by Southern and London Northwestern Railway services on the West Coast Main Line railway at Leighton Buzzard railway station in Linslade. The railway operates non-stop commuting services to Euston railway station, with the fastest peak journey times less than 30 minutes.
Leighton Buzzard operates a three-tier education system with a selection of with Lower, Middle and Upper Schools.
The River Ouzel runs through the town as does the famous Grand Union Canal, which Leighton Buzzard is well known for. There is a lot of activity along the canal which residents can enjoy, from peaceful walks to fishing and waterside pubs.
There are many community events scheduled throughout the year including both the Food and Canal Festivals in the summer, Linslade in Bloom, Music in the Park and the Christmas Market.
A short drive from Leighton Buzzard is Ascott House which is set in a 3,200-acre estate and benefits extensive manicured gardens which you are free to enjoy. There is also Rushmere Country Park on the outskirts of the town which is an area of 400 acres of woodland, heathland and meadows for you to explore. This is a Greensands Trust site with a visitor centre and café.
In 1963 the Great Train Robbery took place at a site near Bridego Bridge, between the villages of Cheddington and Linslade. Every time a Great Train Robber was caught law dictated that they had to be brought back to the small court house at Linslade to be charged.

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.
