Quirky, charming and idyllic - sentimentally appealing and very pretty! A real
talking point, full of character and as tempting as the sweet treats contained
within the chocolate boxes that used to carry images of cottages like this.
This beautiful double fronted home, built in the 1920's, has been owned by the
same family for 100 years and it is the current owner’s piece of rural
Britain. . . . . . And who wouldn’t want a piece of that? If the attractive period
façade or the rustic, country feel to the versatile outbuildings doesn't win
you over, then the beautiful trailing wisteria, pitched roof porch and two
chimneys will instead.
To the front of the house are the two main reception rooms. The living room
has a real cozy feel but there is plenty of room for a sofa, armchairs and
other furniture. You can add soft furnishings and décor that reflect your
personal style. A large bay window to the front provides natural light
creating an inviting living space perfect for relaxation and enjoyment. The
exposed brick fireplace and log burner adds warmth and charm, making it an
ideal gathering spot during chilly evenings - will help with utility bills
too.
The dining room also has a bay window and fireplace with log burner. It is big
enough for a good size table and chairs and close to the kitchen - perfect for
evening meals and entertaining family and friends. The wooden flooring in both
rooms not only looks great and is in keeping with the traditional country
feel, but it's also easy to clean, making it the perfect choice for those who
prefer low - maintenance living.
Step into the inviting farmhouse kitchen, where rustic charm meets modern
convenience. An exposed wooden beam graces the ceiling, casting a warm, cozy
glow over the wooden worktop island and the classic farmhouse sink. The
neutral colour palette exudes a timeless elegance, perfectly complementing the
bespoke Shaker - style fireplace surround to the range cooker, stone flooring,
and gingham - style cabinet curtains, creating a space that effortlessly blends
tradition and comfort in every detail. A utility room provides a space for
your washing machine and tumble dryer and a downstairs toilet - guests don't
need to go upstairs to use the bathroom.
A 17ft orangery - style conservatory, where the "warm roof" design ensures year -
round comfort, completes the ground floor space. This space features rich
wooden flooring that adds warmth and character and a cozy log burner takes
centre stage, creating a perfect ambience for relaxation and entertainment.
Whether it's an ideal TV room, snug, reading nook, or the ultimate teenage
Xbox and PlayStation games room, this versatile sanctuary combines comfort and
style, offering a haven for every leisure pursuit.
Upstairs, you'll find three generously proportioned bedrooms behind rustic
cottage style wooden doors - all with neutral carpets - no cold feet on winter
mornings. No small third box room - space for a child to grow or, for those
working from home, a good space for an office - no need to move your stuff
from the dining room table when guests come round.
The traditional cottage feel continues into a great sized shower room, which
provides the space to unwind before bed and with a large "rain" shower head,
an invigorating shower in the morning.
But that's not all - outside, you'll find an attractive walled private cobbled
courtyard garden. Enjoy the vibrant beauty of pristine lawn without the hassle
of watering or mowing, adding a touch of nature to your surroundings with
effortless elegance and a covered terrace where the current owners have a hot
tub. You and your guests can catch the sun at different times of the day - a
perfect space for hosting summer barbecues or just enjoying a glass of wine on
a warm evening.
The outbuildings from a large storage barn / garage, to the loft room provide
versatile storage and potential further accommodation - whether it's an
extended family annex or maybe even a rental opportunity. The current owners
have run a small local produce farm shop in the other barn for the last 15
years.
And with great local schools and access to beautiful Bedfordshire countryside
nearby, there's plenty to keep a young family occupied. From Biggleswade's
mainline station you can be in the centre of London in less than 45 minutes.
If you fancy a trip to the seaside you can stay on for just over an hour
longer and be in Brighton. For those commuting by road the A1(M) serves the
town well and takes you North and South.
