Why buy this home?

If you are thinking of purchasing a brand-new home, then this beautifully presented 'Warwick' built in 2020 is sure to be a consideration. It benefits from a recently landscaped garden, a partially converted garage providing a versatile additional room, comes without the inevitable snagging list and most importantly, it is ready to move into now.

While some modern homes can feel a little plain from the outside, this one stands out for all the right reasons. The red bricks, timber cladding and leaded windows add a touch of character giving the home instant curb appeal and a lovely first impression.

The living room is the first room you come to from the entrance hall, and it immediately sets a welcoming tone. It’s a spacious and versatile area, decorated in soft, neutral colours that create a sense of warmth while still allowing you to add your own style. Whether you're relaxing after a busy day, enjoying time with family, or hosting friends, this is a room that suits any occasion. The current owners have a large corner sofa and an additional armchair, with plenty of space left over. The wood effect Amtico flooring flows through from the hallway and a large window to the front allows in plenty of light.

On the right-hand side of the entrance hall there is a W/C which is essential for every family home.

Undoubtedly, the standout feature of this home is the impressive 18ft kitchen/diner that spans the width of the house, a space you'll be proud to entertain in. The current owners upgraded the kitchen when they purchased it, adding a central island that provides additional storage and doubles as a spot for quick meals, casual chats, or a place for children to do their homework. The kitchen is fitted with shaker-style units that bring character to the modern design, along with integrated appliances including a double oven, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer. A dedicated utility cupboard is neatly tucked away to house the washing machine and tumble dryer, freeing up space elsewhere in the kitchen. Amtico flooring continues seamlessly through from the entrance hall, providing a sense of continuity while also being practical and easy to maintain - ideal for busy family life. French doors lead out the rear garden, allowing parents to keep an eye on children playing or if hosting, anyone in the kitchen can still be a part of the gathering when it is in the garden.

One of the key benefits of choosing a resale property over a new build is the advantage of an already established garden and this one certainly delivers. Landscaped just six months ago, the garden features a large paved patio that’s perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond the patio lies a well-maintained lawn, offering plenty of space to relax or play. At the rear, a timber pergola creates a private seating area - ideal for unwinding, hosting guests, or enjoying a cool spot away from the sun. Raised planting beds add an opportunity to get creative with flowers or vegetables, while a gate conveniently leads to the driveway parking.

The garage has been partially converted to create an office with more than enough space for two people to work from home. This would also make a fantastic home salon or games room. There is still storage room for bikes and seasonal items at the front of the garage.

Another key feature of this design of home is that it comes with three double bedrooms. The main bedroom which is at the front of the home has a fitted wardrobe and comfortably fits a super king-sized bed with extra room for all the furniture you would require. There is also an additional alcove which has been fitted with shelving for extra storage. The en-suite features a double shower, a wash hand basin, and a W/C, alongside a window for ventilation, plus a heated towel rail for added warmth. The second bedroom is also a lovely size and has also benefits from a fitted wardrobe, which frees up valuable floor space. This makes it ideal for a teenager wanting to add a desk, gaming setup, or extra seating for when their friends come over. The third bedroom is currently being used as a nursery, but it would take a double bed if required.

The property has driveway parking for two cars with plenty of extra visitor spaces nearby.

One of the most popular modern developments on which to live in Leighton Buzzard, Leestone Park is located off the prestigious Heath Road, with easy access to local schools and pubs, and just a short walk to Leighton Buzzard High Street. Wide roads and considerately designed homes give the feeling of space throughout the development meaning you don’t feel hemmed in like some modern developments. Rushmere Country Park is only a short drive away and is ideal for dog walking, plus you are on the right side of the town for quick access to the A5 if you need to get to Milton Keynes. The development itself has a Co-op shop for your daily essentials and a fish bar where you can get your takeaway for quiet nights in with the family.

More about the location...

Leighton Buzzard is a market town in Bedfordshire, near the Chiltern Hills and lying between Aylesbury, Tring, Dunstable and Milton Keynes.

The area has become an increasingly popular place to relocate to for workers from London, helped in part by its reasonably priced housing – a big attraction for young professional couples wanting to get their foot on the property ladder. Leighton Buzzard provides great access to the countryside and other parts of the UK like London, Birmingham, Cambridge and Oxford.

Leighton Buzzard is close to the M1 motorway and A5 road, and is served by Southern and London Northwestern Railway services on the West Coast Main Line railway at Leighton Buzzard railway station in Linslade. The railway operates non-stop commuting services to Euston railway station, with the fastest peak journey times less than 30 minutes.

Leighton Buzzard operates a three-tier education system with a selection of with Lower, Middle and Upper Schools.

The River Ouzel runs through the town as does the famous Grand Union Canal, which Leighton Buzzard is well known for. There is a lot of activity along the canal which residents can enjoy, from peaceful walks to fishing and waterside pubs.

There are many community events scheduled throughout the year including both the Food and Canal Festivals in the summer, Linslade in Bloom, Music in the Park and the Christmas Market.

A short drive from Leighton Buzzard is Ascott House which is set in a 3,200-acre estate and benefits extensive manicured gardens which you are free to enjoy. There is also Rushmere Country Park on the outskirts of the town which is an area of 400 acres of woodland, heathland and meadows for you to explore. This is a Greensands Trust site with a visitor centre and café.

In 1963 the Great Train Robbery took place at a site near Bridego Bridge, between the villages of Cheddington and Linslade. Every time a Great Train Robber was caught law dictated that they had to be brought back to the small court house at Linslade to be charged.

Lion Estates is a team of estate agents offering the most personal service in the industry. Our goal is to cover our costs by adding value in the form of a higher sales price, better communication and reduce stress for our clients. We aim to be your chosen property professional for life, offering advice and support even when you're not looking to move home. A New Breed Of Estate Agent It's no secret that estate agents in the UK don't have the best reputation compared to other countries across the world... We believe this is down to the high transactional nature of the typical estate agency business model. The need to sell high levels of homes results in poor marketing, worse communication and under-performance which leaves clients feeling short-changed. The agent who values your home and wins your trust isn't the agent who shows potential buyers around your home and goes on to negotiate your sales price. This crucial task falls to the least experienced staff member, who more often than not knows nothing about your home and hopes the potential buyer will decide to offer full asking price off their own back. Don't blame the agent though; they are likely conducting viewings on 30 - 50 homes, such is their business model, so it's impossible for them to know every detail about every home. But the person it impacts the most is the person who is paying the agent's fee - you. This, however, is through choice and not necessity - there is a better way. Imagine a service designed around what's best for the client, always putting your needs first. A truly personal service tailored to the different needs of each client as, after all, everyone's reason for moving is different. Not only that but every home is different - even if you have the same house style as someone else on your street, no other home has the same plot, orientation and feel of your home. You and your home are unique, and we for one believe you deserve to be treated like it. The estate agency industry has failed to evolve over the last 40 + years. It has failed to keep up with the changing needs of clients as the world around us has changed rapidly. Finally that change has come - welcome to the era of the personal estate agent.
