4 bed detached house for sale

Ivinghoe Aston, Leighton Buzzard LU7

Set on a beautiful generous, southerly and just over a quarter of an acre, this substantial family home measuring approximately 2,200 sq ft enjoys a tucked away, private setting, gorgeous views, and impressive south facing living spaces overlooking the garden and beyond.

Ground Floor

The accommodation is both generous and light. From the front door, with its covered oak porch, you enter the property into a welcoming hallway, providing access to a generous sitting room with inglenook fireplace and log burner, a separate dining room and a large conservatory, cloakroom plus a good size kitchen/breakfast room with access to a separate utility room. In addition, there is a study, with enough space for one, or even two people, to work from home.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, with the main bedroom featuring an en-suite shower room. A good size family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The views from the two bedrooms located to the rear of the house are uninterrupted all the way to Ivinghoe Beacon in the distance.

Outside

Sitting on a wide double width plot, totalling around a third of an acre with a double garage and there is plenty of parking. There is certainly ample space to extend.
