Across the opposite side of the landing is the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 18'1ft by 9'9ft and makes for flexible furniture placement. Two windows flood the space with an abundance of natural daylight. Beyond here is the bedroom which is of double proportions and has the added advantage of built in wardrobes as well as twin windows which enjoy beautiful views over the communal gardens beyond. Completing this level is a shower room which has been fitted with a three piece suite comprising of a walk in shower enclosure, low level wc and pedestal wash hand basin. The splashback areas have been tiled and a shaver socket and wall mounted heater have been installed.
Externally the gardens which surround the development are communal and have been beautiful tended with deep, shaped borders stocked full of an assortment of established plants, shrubs and bushes. An attractive seating area sits to the front.
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.
