Set in the popular village of Wilden, Mulberry Cottage started life as a pair of semi-detached cottages before being converted to the single family home which exists today. The current owners purchased the property in the 1980s and have made many changes during their tenure including extensions to both sides and the addition of a conservatory. The property has a lovely outlook over open countryside.
The ground floor offers flexible living space with the living and dining rooms having a central chimney breast with the living room having a log burning stove. The living room opens out to a sitting room and there is a further room beyond, ideal as a study or hobbies’ room. The fitted kitchen overlooks the front of the property and, subject to building regulation approval, could be knocked into the dining room to provide a kitchen/diner. Also on the ground floor there is a utility room and a cloakroom.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms with the master having an en suite shower room which features a Japanese bath. The family bathroom also has a separate shower cubicle. There are also a good variety of fitted wardrobes.
The property is fully double glazed and has oil fired central heating, with a recently renewed oil tank and boiler. There are a number of character features throughout including wooden doors and the older part of the cottage includes some low ceilings.
Outside the property really comes into its own. There are driveways to both sides of the cottage accommodating off road parking. The secluded and well stocked rear garden is a particular feature and is laid mainly to lawn. South Brook runs to the rear of the boundary, which backs straight to countryside. There are also two large storage sheds with power and there is a log store.
Wilden is no more than seven miles from Bedford’s town centre and accessed by one of the least busy roads, the B660 Kimbolton Road, that leads in to Bedford’s town centre where extensive recreational, educational and shopping facilities can be found including Bedford’s mainline railway station with regular services to London’s St Pancras and beyond.
Wilden itself is a small largely undeveloped village with its own Primary School, church, Baptist chapel and village hall. On the edge of the village is the very popular Pells’ farm shop and garden centre where a variety of fresh food and consumables can be found.
