4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

This quite superb, thoughtfully extended four-bedroom semi-detached home occupies a wonderful position within the picturesque market town of Ampthill and incorporates well proportioned, versatile accommodation.

Approach to the home is via a path leading to the front door, with deep established borders and mature maple tree. Once inside you're immediately greeted by the entrance hall which has stairs directly ahead leading to the first-floor accommodation. To the right-hand side is the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 14'6ft by 11'9ft making for flexible furniture placement. A brick open fire sits within an attractive recess and black tiled hearth, whilst a large window provides the front aspect with daylight. Beyond here is a more formal dining room which comfortably allows for a table and chairs, for the family/entertaining area. Sliding patio doors lead out into the garden. Back in the hallway, and running parallel to the dining room, is the kitchen which has been fitted with a comprehensive range of light-coloured floor and wall mounted units with darker contrasting work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been woven into the design including a gas hob, stainless steel extractor hood and double oven. Additional space for other free-standing goods such as a fridge and washing machine has also been made available. The look is finished with tiled splashbacks and tile flooring. An inner lobby gives external access to the rear as well as housing a useful cloakroom which comprises of a low level wc and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit with heated towel rail. Completing this level is a study/family room depending on requirements and measures 11'8ft by 8'3ft with a beautiful dual aspect orientation.

Moving upstairs the first-floor landing gives way to all the accommodation on this level, the master bedroom benefits from an extensive range of built in wardrobes with dressing table and mirror. The remaining bedrooms are particularly generous with two offering double proportions, whilst the fourth bedroom is still a good sized single. They are all serviced by a family bathroom which has been fitted with a three-piece suite incorporating a panelled bath with shower unit and glass screen positioned over, low level wc and wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. Modern tiling adorns the walls, and a heated towel rail has been installed.

Externally the rear garden has been laid predominately to lawn with an array of mature plants, shrubs and bushes. A good-sized patio area provides the perfect area to relax or entertain, whilst the corner location and boundary of timber fencing and mature conifers provide a deceptively private aspect. Beyond here is a single garage with an up and over door, as well as a hard standing driveway which allows parking for one vehicle.

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', ‘Firs 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 Flitwick station 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.
