4 bed detached house for sale

Common Road, Kensworth, Central Bedfordshire LU6

Castles Estate Agents are proud to represent for sale this beautifully extended four double bedroom family home, set well back from the main road in the highly sought-after South Bedfordshire village of Kensworth. Originally a spacious two bedroom bungalow, the property has undergone a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and extension, transforming it into a modern and versatile family home that seamlessly blends contemporary design with traditional charm.

The property is approached via a newly landscaped frontage with ample driveway parking and a newly constructed front porch providing a welcoming entrance. Inside, the layout has been thoughtfully reconfigured to provide generous and well-proportioned living spaces. The entrance hall is particularly impressive, being both spacious and bright, featuring a vaulted ceiling that enhances the sense of light and space, and also providing a courtesy door into the garage for added convenience. From here, an inner hall leads through the property and includes a beautifully crafted wooden rise & turn staircase to the first floor, complete with inset glass panels that add light and visual elegance to the area. There is also a useful understairs cupboard providing practical storage.

The high specification kitchen/dine to the rear, is a real centrepiece of the home, fitted with sleek high-gloss units complemented by granite quartz worksurfaces. There is a dedicated utility cupboard housing the boiler and a megaflow pressurised hot water system, ensuring both efficiency and convenience. The kitchen also benefits from plinth lighting, chrome sockets, and electric operated skylights which fill the space with natural light. Wide bi-fold doors open seamlessly onto the rear garden, creating a wonderful indoor/outdoor flow and making the space ideal for family living or entertaining.

The lounge which is centrally positioned benefits from bi-fold doors leading directly out to the generous rear garden with open countryside beyond, allowing the space to be flooded with light while providing stunning views.

On the ground floor, there is a refitted bathroom with tiled flooring, panelled bath & separate wall mounted shower controls, wash basin, wc and heated towel radiator. Two double bedrooms, both generous in size and tastefully presented, offer flexibility for use as guest rooms, a study, or additional living space.

The newly created first floor provides two further double bedrooms. The master suite is a particularly impressive feature, with French doors opening onto a Juliet balcony that overlooks the rear garden and offers far-reaching views over open countryside. This serene and stylish space also benefits from a luxury en-suite shower room, complete with separate ‘his and hers’ wash basins, a large shower cubicle, and WC. The second upstairs double bedroom is equally well-proportioned, offering a bright and comfortable space ideal for family or guests.

Externally, the property continues to impress with a front driveway providing ample parking for multiple vehicles, leading to the garage. The rear garden enjoys a private and mature outlook, with a well-maintained lawn, patio area, established planting and far-reaching open views over the countryside.

This extended and upgraded detached home offers the perfect blend of modern comfort and rural charm. With its new first floor accommodation, luxury kitchen/diner with premium finishes, vaulted entrance hall, elegant staircase, bi-fold doors, new front porch, and beautiful countryside setting, this home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a turn-key property in one of Bedfordshire’s most desirable villages. Internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality of the renovation and the lifestyle on offer.

Situated just a few minutes’ drive from Junction 9 of the M1, Kensworth provides excellent transport links for commuters heading to London, Milton Keynes or the North. The village itself offers a warm community atmosphere, complete with a charming local pub, village store, church, and access to picturesque countryside walks leading into the heart of the Chiltern Hills-an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
