2 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

This superb, extended two-bedroom end of terraced cottage nestles within the heart of the sought after village of Houghton Conquest and offers versatile, well-appointed accommodation which would make an ideal first time purchase.

Approach to the home is via a footpath which leads to the front door. Once inside you're immediately greeted by the entrance hall which has stairs leading to the first-floor accommodation, whilst to the left-hand side is the dining room. This has a feature fireplace and comfortably accommodates a table and chairs, making a real family/sociable area. Across the opposite side of the hallway is the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 12'5ft by 11'9ft making for flexible furniture placement and a large window to the side elevation floods the room with an abundance of natural daylight. Beyond here an extension has been added to create a good-sized kitchen and utility area, measuring 16'0ft by 7'6ft and incorporating a range of contemporary floor and wall mounted units with darker contrasting work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been woven into the design including a four-ring electric hob, extractor hood and oven, whilst space has also been made available for other free-standing goods such as a fridge/freezer and washing machine. Dark flooring has been added and multiple windows look across the side and rear elevations.

Moving upstairs the first-floor landing gives way to all the accommodation on this level, in addition to a further concealed staircase to the top floor. The master bedroom on this level, however, sits to the front of the property and has an attractive ornamental cast iron fireplace as well as built in storage. The second bedroom is equally well proportioned, measuring 11'6ft by 8'1ft, again with some storage capacity. Both are serviced by a refitted shower room which comprises of a shower enclosure, low level wc and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. The look is finished with modern tiling, heated towel rail and obscure window.

The second floor provides access to a loft room which could be used as additional storage and has a window overlooking the side aspect as well as deep eaves to either side. Potentially, if building regulations were sought and obtained, it could be incorporated into usable accommodation.

Externally the rear garden has been designed with a low maintenance feel in mind. Paving has been installed, making an ideal relaxing/entertaining area, whilst to the far end is an outbuilding which could be utilised as storage or, potentially, a home office space. The boundary is enclosed by timber fencing with gated side access.

The village of Houghton Conquest is located between the Bedfordshire towns of Ampthill and Bedford, both of which are approximately five miles from the property and offer extensive amenities, Waitrose stores, schooling and local parks. The village itself has two established pub/eateries, a local store that incorporates a sub post office, village hall, Houghton Conquest lower school and various public footpaths and bridleways. Links into the London St Pancras from Bedford take approximately forty minutes, alternatively the Flitwick platform which is six miles from the property has a regular service taking as little as thirty-five minutes.
