A stunning two/three bedroom cottage positioned within convenient reach of Ampthill town centre and benefiting from a wealth of immaculate internal accommodation finished to an exceptionally high standard. Approach to the home is via a shingled driveway located to the rear and which provides ample parking for two/three vehicles. Running along the side perimeter are smart black wrought iron railing with steps leading up. A replacement composite front door has been added which opens directly into the hallway. Stairs run to the first floor accommodation, whilst to the right hand side is the kitchen. This has been fitted with a comprehensive range of light grey coloured floor and wall mounted units with chunky wooden work tops over. Several integrated appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including a four ring induction hob, extractor unit and double oven. To one side is additional free standing space for an upright frdge/freezer. Sleek upstands and the original quarry tiled floor finish the look along with a double glazed sash window. Beyond here is a utility area which has been fitted with matching floor and wall mounted units with stylish Silestone work surfaces over. Space has been afforded for a washing machine and it benefits from an integrated dishwasher. A glazed door leads to the side elevation. Nestled nicely to the far end is a useful cloakroom which comprises of a low level wc and wash hand basin. A new boiler has been neatly concealed within a cupboard and an obscure window overlooks the rear. Back at the front of the house is the principal reception room, the living room, which has a feature wall decorated in a contemporary dark blue. An electric inset stove is enclosed by a brick fireplace with hearth and wooden surround. An abundance of natural daylight floods the room from windows positioned to the front and side aspects. Moving upstairs the configuration of the landing has been cleverly altered to offer additional space and a considered flow to the accommodation. To the front the master bedroom is immaculately presented with a focal fireplace and benefits from daylight from windows positioned to both the front and side aspects, whilst the second bedroom is also of double proportions and sits to the rear elevation. Both of these rooms are serviced by way of a beautiful refitted bathroom comprising of a double shower enclosure, low level wc and pedestal wash hand basin. Smart white tiled splashbacks with darker contrasting grouting have been added within the shower area while half height wood panelling run around the remainder of the space. The look is complete with a heated towel rail, stylish mosaic flooring and recessed ceiling spotlights. An additional staircase leads to the second floor where the attic space has been cleverly converted and is currently utilised as a third bedroom which has been immaculately renovated with exposed brickwork, deep eaves storage as well as two Velux windows providing spectacular, elevated views for miles around. Please note due to a lack of building regulations this area cannot be considered as formal accommodation but any prospective buyer could look to remedy this should they so wish. Externally the rear garden has been thoughtfully designed with a low maintenance feel in mind. Two separate paved semi circular seating areas have been created with an individually paved path between them and flanked by shingle. The entirety of the boundary is encased by original brick walling and later addition fencing. A brick built outbuilding offers a generous storage space however, in our opinion, could be converted into a home office space, hobbies room or gym. Beyond this a further smaller area provides useful storage and gated access to a shingled area allowing tandem parking for two/three vehicles. Within immediate 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.
