A beautifully styled four-bedroom detached home with countryside views, generous living spaces and a superb village setting.
Set in the sought-after Lower Shelton area of Marston Moretaine, this exceptional detached home combines contemporary design with rural tranquillity. Thoughtfully extended and immaculately presented, it offers flexible accommodation, a stunning open-plan kitchen and family area, and wonderful views across open fields - all within easy reach of local amenities, schools, and transport links.
The Home
Behind its welcoming oak-framed porch, this home immediately impresses with warmth and light. The entrance hall opens to a comfortable sitting room with a feature exposed brick open fireplace, and large windows that flood the space with natural light.
At the heart of the home lies the spectacular kitchen, dining, and family room, a space that truly defines modern living. The kitchen is fitted with sleek contemporary cabinetry, granite worktops, and integrated appliances, complemented by a striking central island and breakfast bar. Distinctive design touches - such as the exposed brick feature wall, warm accent tones, and pendant lighting - create a stylish yet inviting feel. Expansive glazing and bi-fold doors open directly to the rear garden, bringing the outdoors in and creating a wonderful flow for entertaining.
A separate utility room provides extra storage and practicality, while the study offers flexibility as a fourth bedroom or home office - ideal for remote working.
Two generous ground-floor bedrooms are served by a modern shower room, making the layout perfect for families or multigenerational living.
Upstairs, the principal suite enjoys glorious open views from its Juliet balcony, with space for a king-sized bed and a walk-in wardrobe. The second upstairs bedroom is equally spacious and has eaves access. A contemporary family bathroom completes the first floor, featuring a sleek white suite, mosaic tiling, and a large bathtub beneath a skylight for a touch of luxury.
Outside
The rear garden is a true highlight - a beautifully maintained, private space. It features a large lawn, raised vegetable beds, a pond, and mature trees and shrubs that frame the views perfectly. A generous timber outbuilding, ideal as a garden office or studio, is serviced with power and lighting, which sits alongside a shed and wood store, providing ample storage and flexibility for hobbies.
At the front, a wide gravelled horseshoe driveway provides excellent parking and leads to an integral garage with power and lighting, framed by neat planting and a welcoming entrance.
- Location -
Ideally situated for both convenience and countryside living, this home offers superb transport links and local amenities. Flitwick station is just 6.5 miles away, providing fast services to London in around 41 minutes, while Bedford (7.5 miles) and Milton Keynes (12.5 miles) offer even quicker connections, excellent shopping, and renowned private schools. Millbrook's Marston Vale line, only 1.5 miles away, links Bedford and Bletchley, and the nearby A421 gives easy access to the M1. Regular bus services run to Cranfield University and Technology Park, just 4.5 miles away, and Luton Airport can be reached in approximately 25 minutes.
The charming market town of Ampthill is only 5.5 miles away, offering a great selection of pubs, restaurants, and a Waitrose supermarket. Locally, everyday amenities are close at hand - a Co-op, community hall, sports facilities, a popular pub, and an Indian restaurant are all within walking distance. The village pre- and primary school, rated Good by Ofsted, and the historic Church of St Mary with its unique detached bell tower are both just over a mile away.
Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy the nearby lakes for fishing and watersports, Millbrook Golf Club, and the renown golf course at Woburn, just 10 miles away. The Millennium Country Park - only a few hundred yards from your door - offers peaceful walking and cycling routes, including the Route 51 cycleway between Oxford and Cambridge and the scenic 6.5-mile Jubilee Trail.
Combining excellent transport links with a wealth of leisure opportunities and community spirit, this location offers the perfect balance of accessibility and rural charm.
