Summary

Description
Believed to have been built towards the end of 19th Century this charismatic home occupies a splendid plot just a few minutes walk from the centre of Woburn Sands. Although dated throughout, each room identifies with an individual purpose providing accommodation which includes a sitting room with fireplace, dining room again with fireplace, kitchen/breakfast room with Rayburn oven, pantry and utility space, together with a scullery, a typical hallmark of the Victorian era. Upstairs there are three very good sized bedrooms, all with high ceilings, picture rails and garden views to the front and rear. The shower room and WC are split into two rooms, the shower room in fact offering an excellent view of our Brown & Merry office (formerly Foll & Parker) which was an integral part of the previous owner's history of the home.
Outside the surrounding garden plot is indeed both generous, established and a haven for family life. An array of outbuildings include a gardeners loo, potting and wood sheds, tool store and garden room. A detached garage again offers additional storage or parking for a classic motor! Although in need of updating to bring this family home into the modern era of convenience and functionality this special home offers a new buyer a superb opportunity to safeguard the original Victorian character but increase the existing footprint, thus providing an elegant twist of period meets contemporary living.
