  • Four reception rooms
  • Kitchen/breakfast room
  • Five/six bedrooms

Set on a commanding plot within walking distance of the mainline railway station, this substantial family home offers charm, character and potential for any incoming purchaser.

It is being offered for sale for the first time in several decades and is a very rare opportunity for a buyer to put their mark on this Edwardian property built in 1908.

The property offers almost 3,500 square feet of accommodation over three floors and there is also a detached double garage and a converted former stable building offering another 453 square feet of hobbies' space.
The entrance hall is fitting for a home of this stature with Victorian style tiled flooring, a beamed ceiling and a wide tread staircase rising to the first floor.

There is an abundance of flexible living space with several reception rooms and a general feeling of grandeur runs throughout.

To the rear of the property there is a large family room, complete with a brick fireplace and set behind an oak beamed recess. This room has been extended and is open to a sun room area which has oak flooring with windows and doors overlooking the garden. There are two further reception rooms which are utilised as living and dining rooms and to the side of the property the former garage has been converted to a study and has Velux windows and views to the front.
The ground floor also includes a large kitchen capable of housing a breakfast table and there is a very useful pantry and a cloakroom.

Moving to the first floor there is a galleried landing with the master bedroom being to the back of the house and having its own terrace/balcony. There are two further large bedrooms at this level, a shower room and an additional bathroom. On the second floor there are three bedrooms (two interlinking) and a further bathroom - with the space at this level offering scope for rearrangement, perhaps to form a large master suite.
Heating is provided by a gas to radiator system.

Outside, the former stable offers a multipurpose room which could suit many uses to include a home office, gym or similar, or possibly accommodation for a dependent relative. It is detached from the main house and has a WC and a utility area. In addition to this building there is a further storage barn.

The overall plot is around 0.4 acres (sts) with a frontage of around ninety feet with the rear garden measuring around one hundred and ten feet deep. The front garden offers a wide range of shrubs, plants, hedges and trees with ample off road parking in addition to the detached double garage. The rear garden, which is not overlooked from the rear, offers a similar level of maturity with further trees, bushes, plants and area of hard landscaping.
The property is located on Bromham Road to the western side of Bedford, just prior to Biddenham Turn. It therefore provides excellent access to the A421 for those wishing to reach the A1, the M1 and Milton Keynes. There are several schooling choices nearby for all ages including those of the popular Harpur Trust. The mainline railway station is just 0.6 miles away for those wishing to access the fast and frequent rail services that are available to the capital and beyond.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 10, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on May 2, 2023 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
