The property has double glazing and heating is provided by an oil fired system.

Outside, the property has a large frontage with block paving and accommodates parking for numerous vehicles.

There is also a covered outside entertaining space, which can be used all year round.

Thurleigh offers a semi-rural setting, surrounded by countryside, with footpaths and bridle paths aplenty. The village has a family-friendly sports and social club, popular sports teams and a Primary School and nursery. Ravensden and Sharnbrook have more amenities, Sharnbrook Academy is the nearest secondary school, and Kimbolton School and the Harpur Trust are in close proximity, with bus routes from Thurleigh.
