An absolutely iconic two bedroom Grade II listed cottage set on the fringe of the picturesque market town of Ampthill. Benefiting from beautiful, versatile internal accommodation, in addition to ample parking, oversized garage and generous gardens overlooking open woodland beyond.
Approach to the home is via an attractive gate, beyond which a lawned frontage leads to the front door. This is a chunky wooden door which opens into a small porch, this in turn provides access directly into the living room. This is a wonderful space that has light flooding through from two separate aspects and benefits from a real focal point to the room by way of a feature fireplace sitting diagonally to one end. Running parallel to here is the master bedroom which has been fitted with a comprehensive range of built in shelved and railed wardrobes and has an attractive beamed ceiling. The kitchen is particularly generous, measuring almost 14ft in length and having been fitted with numerous floor and wall mounted units with contrasting work surfaces over. Several appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including an electric hob, double oven, and extractor hood. The floor and splashbacks have been thoughtfully tiled whilst a window and external door overlook the side elevation. To the opposite side of the kitchen is a small lobby area which, currently, houses a useful shower enclosure, whilst beyond that is the principle bathroom. This comprises of a panelled bath, low level wc and wash hand basin. Towards the rear of the property is a large dining room, this has an imposing inglenook fireplace which creates real drama to the space. A door cleverly conceals the staircase leading to the first floor accommodation, whilst a set of French doors provides entry to the completion of the ground floor accommodation. This is a deceptively generous sun room, the dimensions of which exceed 17ft in width and allow time to take in the breathtaking gardens. Once upstairs you are greeted by the second bedroom which has a beautifully shaped ceiling giving real character to the space. Another set of built in wardrobes make additional furniture placement straightforward.
Externally the space is equally impressive with a track leading to the rear of the cottage. Nestled here is an ample block paved driveway allowing parking for several vehicles. A detached timber carport creates space for another vehicle or storage space if required. The gardens themselves are impressive, and vast, with undulating lawn, flanked by borders stocked with mature plants, bushes and shrubs. To the far end of the garden is an area dotted with numerous trees. Completing the outside space is an outbuilding currently utilised as an annexe. This has an open plan kitchen/living/bedroom area with a separate bathroom. Whether this is used as living accommodation or turned into an office/work from home space or hobbies room completely depends on the occupier.
Within a short distance from the property is access to Ampthill town centre with its extensive amenities, parks and local Waitrose store. The area is renowned for its autonomous schooling for all age groups. There is also a local pick-up point for the Bedford Harpur trust private schools for both boys and girls. Links into London are from the Flitwick station with a frequent service into St Pancras which takes as little as 40 minutes.
Available for occupation during August 2021.
