Embraced by sprawling farmland along the Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire borders, this property embodies rustic charm and promises an idyllic rural lifestyle.
Awaiting its transformation through a full refurbishment, this home offers an unparalleled opportunity for someone to craft a breath taking rural home. Merely a 15-minute drive from both Bedford and Milton Keynes, this location seamlessly blends tranquillity with accessibility both providing fantastic commuter access into central london.
Approaching the property along Turvey Road, a gated entrance flanked by horse chestnut trees beckons you down a driveway, leading to this home which is full of character and potential. Set upon approximately a quarter of an acre. Notably, the property boasts multiple outbuildings, adding further versatility to its allure.
Step inside to discover three inviting reception rooms and a kitchen on the ground floor. Both the living room and dining room feature open fireplaces and log burner stoves. heading upstairs through a discreet staircase you find four bedrooms and a family bathroom, each room offering uninterrupted panoramic views of Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire's farm land.
Elevating the potential opportunity is an additional two acres of land at the rear of the property, accessible through its private entrance. This additional expanse is available for negotiation alongside the main property or independently, which subject to the relevant permission presents a canvas for expansion or further bespoke developments-a rare opportunity to extend the boundaries of this rural home.
