3 bedroom bungalow for sale

This extended, deceptively spacious three bedroom detached bungalow occupies a superb position within the picturesque Georgian market town of Ampthill and provides good quality, interchangeable accommodation, in addition to a generous rear garden. The property would, in our opinion, lend itself perfectly to additional enlargement/extension (STPP).

Approach to the home is onto a hard standing driveway allowing off road parking for two vehicles, whilst mature bushes run along the front perimeter. Once inside you're immediately greeted by the entrance hall which is spacious in nature with two useful storage/airing cupboards. Flanking either side of the hallway are two bedrooms, which are both of double proportions and look out across the front aspect, whilst nestled beyond these is the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 18'0ft by 13'6ft and which has been fitted with a flame effect fire set on a raised hearth with tiled backing. Given the proportions furniture placement is particularly flexible, and natural daylight floods the room from a window to the side and large sliding patio doors to the rear leading into the garden. Back in the entrance hall a stylish bathroom has been refitted with a three-piece suite comprising of a double, walk in shower enclosure, low level wc and pedestal wash hand basin. Modern, sleek tiling adorns the walls, and the look has been finished with the addition of a heated towel rail and recessed ceiling spotlights. The kitchen has also undergone improvement with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units incorporating darker, contrasting work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including a four-ring gas hob, double oven, extractor unit, dishwasher, fridge/freezer and wine chiller. Matching upstands have been added and space has been afforded for a small breakfast table and chairs, creating a real family/sociable area. Moving towards the rear of the bungalow a split inner hall provides an external door to the garden to one side as well as separate external access to the opposite side of the property. This area also offers the ability to house a washing machine and tumble dryer, doubling up as a utility room as well. Completing the accommodation is the master bedroom which enjoys beautiful views down the garden and extends to 14'0ft by 11'10ft in size with a deep built in storage cupboard. It also benefits from its own en-suite which comprises of a panelled bath with shower unit and glass screen positioned over, low level wc and pedestal wash hand basin. Modern white splashback tiling, a heated towel rail and recessed lighting contemporise the space further still.

Externally the original garage has been converted into an office, making it ideal as a separate work from home space, whilst the garden itself is particularly generous. A good-sized patio area butts up against the rear of the property, making the perfect relaxing/entertaining area with steps that lead down to the remainder of the garden which has been laid predominately to lawn. Deep borders have been well stocked with an assortment of established bushes and shrubs, in addition to a mature tree. The boundary is enclosed by timber fencing.

Within close proximity is access to Ampthill town centre and its extensive amenities, Waitrose store, parks and high street shops. The area is renowned for its autonomous schooling for all age groups, with 'Russell Lower' 'Alameda' and 'Redborne' just a short walk away. There is also a local pick-up point for the Bedford Harpur trust private schools for both boys and girls. Links into London are from the Flitwick platform with a frequent service into St Pancras which takes as little as 40 minutes, major road links are from J13, M1 which is less than 15 minutes from the property.
