A modern detached family home constructed approximately 20 years ago that has been thoughtfully converted and extended offering a well balanced arrangement of internal accommodation set over three levels to the extent of 1863 sq ft. The property is set within a small cul-de-sac of established and similar homes and offers a formal living room, an open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, cloakroom/utility, six bedrooms, two en-suites, a family bathroom and enclosed lawned gardens.
The attractive construction of the build is a red brick which sits under a traditional clay tiled roof and there is some mock tudor detailing. There is a hard-standing driveway which provides parking for two vehicles side-by-side and a lawned area which could be turned in to additional parking if required.
Internally the home has a modern and contemporary feel throughout with features to include 'Karndean' flooring, oak framed glazed internal doors, a stylish kitchen and bi-folding doors on to the rear gardens. The entrance hall has a staircase leading up to the first floor accommodation and a door to one side through to a study/play-room. This area of the home forms part of a garage conversion. To the other side of the entrance hall is an internal door leading into the living room which has a window to the front aspect of the home and concertina glazed doors leading through to the kitchen/dining/family room.
This re-modelled space has an open-plan arrangement, the family and seating area is a recent extension, which has a half pitched roof with 'Velux' windows, and bi-folding doors along with views on to the gardens at the rear. There is ample space for a dining table. The kitchen is fitted with a range of grey high-gloss wall and base level cabinetry which is covered over with a solid oak worktop and also incorporates a breakfast bar. Attached to the kitchen is a useful utility room where space is provided for a washing machine and additional white goods if required.
Moving to the first floor, there are four bedrooms housing this level along with a re-fitted family bathroom. The principal bedroom also has the convenience of an en-suite shower-room. A staircase off the landing leads up to and attic conversion which creates two further double bedrooms which are both duel aspect and have attractive roof-top views across the village and beyond. The larger of the two rooms also has an en-suite shower-room attached whereas the other room has useful eaves storage.
The well balanced enclosed gardens to the rear are predominantly laid to lawn and are relatively low maintenance. There are some raised sleeper beds, a raised decking and seating area to the far end and a stone paved patio. A footpath continues from the patio leading to the side with secure gated access on to the front driveway.
The village of Lidlington is located between the major town of Bedford and the City of Milton Keynes. Commuter Links in to London St Pancras from Flitwick [ 10 minutes ] or Bedford take approximately 40 minutes and from Milton Keynes direct in to Euston take as little as 35 minutes. The village itself offers a rail service to both Bedford and Bletchley. Major road links are from M1, J13 which is less than ten minutes drive from the property. Local amenities include a convenience store, public house/eateries and sports clubs and facilities. There are various bridleways and footpaths surrounding the property including the 'Greensand Ridge' which is protected by the forestry commission and mature woodland. The 'Forest Centre' and 'Millennium Country Park' is in the neighbouring village of Marston Moretaine which is less than a five minute drive, as is the Georgian Town of Ampthill with its many services and facilities.
