A modernised late 1960's detached family home situated in an elevated position and cul-de-sac location
offering an open-plan arrangement of accommodation on the ground floor, a re-fitted kitchen, cloakroom,
garage, four bedrooms with fitted storage/wardrobes, a re-fitted family bathroom and a lawned garden
extending to approximately 50 x 40 ft.
The property is located centrally within the Mid-Bedfordshire village of Clophill within an established area
of similar homes. To the front of the home is a block-weave driveway which has raised sleeper beds to
both sides. Parking is available for three vehicles, there is secure gated side access, and the main
entrance sits beneath a flat roof canopy and comes by way of a modern composite door. Access is also
provided into the integral garage via a conventional up and over door.
Internally the property presents well with both a neutral, modern design and feel throughout. The
entrance hall has a wood effect laminate flooring which continues throughout on the ground floor. There
is a cloakroom which is fitted with a modern wash hand basin and low-level w/c which are finished in
white. An internal door off the entrance hall leads into the garage which could in our opinion be converted
to create further living accommodation. The garage in its present state provides a utility area where
space and plumbing is available for a washing machine and further white goods if required. There is both
power and light supplied, and a personnel door leads out to the side of the home.
An opening off the entrance hall leads through to the open plan living/family/dining room which is Lshaped and dual aspect, measuring approximately 21 x 18 ft. Full height glazed French doors provide
access on to an external patio and the rear garden. An opening from the dining area leads into the
kitchen which has been re-fitted with contemporary two-tone grey high gloss wall and base level units
which are covered over with a light-coloured slab-tech worksurface. Integrated appliances include two
eye-level 'Neff' ovens with a separate warming drawer, a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and an induction hob
with a modern 'Neff' extractor hood fitted over. The flooring is laid with a ceramic block tile, there is a
window with views over the garden and a door leads out to the side of the home.
The first-floor landing has an airing cupboard and provides access into all rooms. A total of four wellproportioned bedrooms all with built in storage/wardrobes house this level along with the re-fitted family
bathroom. This room has a contemporary suite to include a panelled bath with shower over, low level w/c
and a grey high-gloss vanity unit with top mounted wash hand basin. Both the flooring and walls are tiled
and there is a full width obscure glazed window facing to the rear aspect of the home.
The garden to the rear extends to
approximately 50 ft, is predominately laid to
lawn and has an easterly facing orientation.
There are raised sleeper beds, a patio and
decking area which provides seating and a
number of mature trees and shrubs. There is a
detached timber storage shed and access to
the side leading back to the front of the home.
In our professional opinion and subject to any
planning restrictions the property lends itself
particularly well to a rear single or, double story
extension.
The village of Clophill is well positioned to cater
for the commuter with the M1/A1 motorways
both within a 20-minute drive, alternatively
there are regular train links into London St
Pancras from either Flitwick or Harlington
platforms, taking a matter of 35/40 minutes
respectively. There is a local convenience store
and several well-established eateries within
walking distance, further and more substantial
amenities can be found in Ampthill offering a
selection of small individually owned shops,
hairdressers and a Waitrose Store. The area is
renowned for its autonomous schooling at all
levels including Redborne Academy, there is
also a local pick up for the Bedford Harpur
Trust schools. There are various public
footpaths and bridleways within a short
distance from the property
