2 bedroom terraced house

This beautiful two bedroom cottage occupies a sought after position within the picturesque Georgian market town of Ampthill and has been thoughtfully extended to offer exceptional accommodation finished to a particularly high standard.

Approach to the property is via a smart red front door which opens directly into the principal reception room, the lounge/diner, and commands impressive dimensions, in this case 20’4ft by 11’10ft making for flexible furniture placement. The living room area has a beautiful brick fireplace with an inset wood burning stove, which makes the perfect focal point to the room, whilst beams run across the ceiling. Beyond here is the dining area which comfortably accommodates ample space for a table and chairs, creating an ideal area for family gatherings or entertaining. A staircase to one side leads to the first floor accommodation. To the rear of the home is a truly spectacular kitchen/breakfast room which has a vaulted ceiling and has been fitted with a comprehensive range of dark grey Shaker style units with lighter coloured solid work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been woven into the design, whilst a breakfast bar provides further informal dining. A triangular gable window and skylights interspersed into the ceiling ensure the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight. To one corner, and completing this level, is a useful cloakroom.

Moving upstairs the first floor landing gives way to all the accommodation on this level, the master bedroom of which nestles to the front elevation and benefits from an extensive range of built in wardrobes, whilst the second bedroom sits to the rear and enjoys elevated views across the garden. They are both serviced by a bathroom which has been immaculately refitted incorporating a panelled bath, low level wc and a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. Modern tiling adorns the splashback areas and the look is finished with a heated towel rail, recessed ceiling spotlights and an obscure window.

A staircase leads to the second floor which provides a useful loft room which could easily be classified as a third bedroom, subject to regulations. It has ample eaves storage, in addition to a window to the front aspect.

Externally the rear garden is sizeable and has been thoughtfully designed and executed with a paved and shingled area as you initially step out, beyond which the remainder of the garden has been laid to lawn with an established border along one side. To the far end a slightly raised seating area has been created, perfect for relaxing or entertaining, whilst 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', ‘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.
