This deceptively spacious four bedroom semi detached home occupies a sought after position within the picturesque Georgian market town of Ampthill, incorporating well proportioned, bright and airy internal accommodation set over three floors. It also, in our opinion, offers ample scope to extend/enlarge (subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents). Please note that the property requires some level of updating/modernisation throughout. Approach to the home is via a paved frontage enclosed by low level brick walling leading to the front door. Once inside you’re immediately greeted by the entrance hall which has the principal reception room to the right hand side. This commands impressive dimensions, in this case, 14’4ft by 10’7ft, making for flexible furniture placement and has an imposing wood burning stove set within a chimney recess. Wide wooden floor boards run across the room and a bay window glances across the front elevation. Beyond here is the dining room which comfortably accommodates ample space for a table and chairs, creating a real family/sociable area and has original quarry tiled floor and red statement wall. Access from here is into a breakfast room which provides informal dining, whilst beyond here a galley kitchen which has been fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units with light coloured work surfaces over. Space has been provided for several free standing appliances and recessed lighting dots the ceiling. Completing this level is an inner lobby which opens into the bathroom, comprising of a panelled bath with a shower unit over, cistern concealed wc and a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. Modern tiling adorns the walls and a skylight floods the room with an abundance of natural daylight. 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, whilst the other two both overlook the rear aspect, with one measuring 11’7ft by 8’5ft and the other extending to 11’7ft by 8’2ft. They are all serviced by a useful cloakroom which incorporates a low level wc and wash hand basin. The second floor houses a further sizeable bedroom which enjoys a dual aspect orientation with spectacular elevated views, in addition to ample eaves storage. Externally the rear garden is particularly generous with a good sized patio area as you initially step out, perfect for relaxing or entertaining, beyond which the remainder of the garden has been laid to lawn with borders flanked to either side stocked with an array of mature shrubs and bushes. To the far end a wild garden has been established, creating a real haven for wildlife and butterflies. 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.
