A Victorian brick under clay tile double bay fronted three storey detached property on a corner plot with walled gardens, situated in the heart of Bedford's Castle Quarter, two minutes’ walk from Bedford's Embankment.

The accommodation extends to approximately 2,472 sq. ft., and includes two reception rooms, a cloakroom, an open plan kitchen/breakfast family room and a utility/boot room. The five double bedrooms are on the first and second floors. The principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom with a built-in wardrobe and a separate WC. The en suite has a roll top bath, a walk-in screened shower enclosure, and twin wash basins. Additional bath/shower rooms are on each floor.

The front garden is bound by an ornate wall with inset iron railings, a matching gate, and a tiled pathway, with flanking borders. Twin timber gates lead to the driveway, providing parking for up to four cars.

In addition, the sitting room has a range of bespoke shelved dressers set either side of the chimney breast.
