3 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

AN IMAGINATIVELY EXTENDED FORMER DUKE OF BEDFORD ESTATE HOUSE SET IN A POPULAR VILLAGE BORDERING OPEN COUNTRYSIDE AND OFFERING EXCELLENT COMMUTER LINKS

Dating back to 1912 this former Duke of Bedford Estate house has character features from the era such as tall ceilings, panelled doors, fireplaces and casement windows with stone sills. Inside there is a traditional hall, two reception rooms and the property has been enlarged with a stylish glazed lantern roof extension. This provides a good size kitchen/dining room which forms the heart of the home along with a utility and cloakroom. On the first floor there are 3 bedrooms all able to fit a double bed and a refitted bathroom with a modern white suite and separate shower.

The house is attractively positioned and set back from the road with front garden, rear terrace/courtyard and two parking spaces. Within a few yards of the house there is a footpath to open countryside and the Greensand Ridge Walk and the High Street pathway leads to the village church, lower school and Rose & Crown public house.

For those that commute the M1 Junction 13 is just two miles away and the A421 which links to the A1, with mainline stations at Flitwick, Bedford (Thameslink) and Milton Keynes (Euston). Ridgmont also has its own small station which connects to the London Northwestern Railway, Bletchley to Bedford line which connect to Euston and Kings Cross respectively.
