Why buy this home?

Located on the family friendly Sandhills development, this impressive four-bedroom townhouse offers flexible family living across three floors, complete with a stylish re-fitted kitchen/diner, partially converted garage space, and a principal bedroom suite occupying the entire top floor. Positioned just a short stroll from both Astral Lake and Astral Park there are plenty of opportunities for children to explore or let off steam and for families to enjoy walks around the lake. Commuters will love the excellent transport links, with easy access to the M1 and Milton Keynes by road, while Leighton Buzzard train station is a short drive away and offers fast, direct services into London Euston.

Entering through the front door into an entrance hall where the space under the stairs offers the option for fitted storage – or simply works perfectly as a spot to hang coats and tuck away shoes.

On the left-hand side there is a W/C which is always useful for families with children or when guests come over.

To the right of the entrance hall, you'll find a stylish re-fitted kitchen/diner. Crisp white cabinetry is complemented by smart grey stone-effect worktops, creating a clean and contemporary feel. There’s plenty of worktop space and storage throughout – including a handy pull-out larder unit and room for all the essential appliances, with space for a washing machine, dishwasher, freestanding oven, and fridge/freezer. The dining area comfortably fits a four-seater table, making it the perfect spot for busy family breakfasts or relaxed evening meals with friends.

To the rear of the home, the spacious living room spans the full width of the property and provides direct access to the garden through French doors, making it the obvious space for entertaining or relaxing. The current owners have two sofas in here, but the room could easily take a corner sofa that would free up space to add a dining table, should that be your preference.

Step outside into a landscaped, private rear garden. The low-maintenance artificial lawn provides a space for children to play, while the patio area offers the ideal setting for summer barbecues, alfresco dining, or simply relaxing with a coffee in the morning sun. There is access to the partially converted garage which adds even more versatility, whether you need a home office, home gym, studio, or chill-out space for teens. There's also a handy storage area to the front – great for bikes and garden tools.

A gate at the rear of the garden leads to the driveway which provides parking for two cars.

The first floor is home to three bedrooms and a smart family bathroom. Bedrooms two and three are both generous double rooms, each benefiting from fitted wardrobes - ideal for keeping the space clutter-free. With both rooms offering excellent proportions, there’s unlikely to be any debate over who gets which one. The fourth bedroom is perfect as a single bedroom but could be a nursery, home office, or playroom making it a flexible room that can adapt to your family's needs.

The family bathroom services the bedrooms on this floor and is fitted with a white suite that includes a W/C, a wash hand basin, and a bath that has a shower over it.

Occupying the entire top floor, the impressive principal bedroom offers a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the home. The size of the room allows you to easily accommodate a super king-size bed, and it still has ample room for a dressing area and all the furniture you would require. It has a fitted double wardrobe freeing up floor space and benefits from its own private en suite, ideal for busy mornings or relaxed evening routines.

The spacious en-suite is fitted with a large shower cubicle, a W/C and a wash hand basin.
