Why buy this home?

Step inside and you instantly feel that this is a home made for family life. The central staircase sets the tone, airy and welcoming, and to the right, a generous office looks out over the front. It’s a space that works for everything, a home office, a kids’ snug, a creative corner, or even a quiet spot to escape with a book and a cup of coffee.

Next door, the living room is bright, inviting, and full of life. A stylish feature wall adds personality, and there’s plenty of room for a large corner sofa where everyone can curl up together. French doors open straight onto the garden, letting the indoors spill outside. Imagine summer BBQs, long afternoons with friends, or just sinking into the sofa with a glass of wine while the sun streams in.

Across the hall, the cleverly designed utility space houses the W/C and washing machine, keeping the kitchen clutter-free and noise at bay. It’s these thoughtful little touches that make daily life effortless.

The kitchen is the heart of the home, and it doesn’t disappoint. Sleek high-gloss units, polished counter tops, and spotlights give it a modern, uplifting feel, while a breakfast bar is perfect for a quick bite, morning coffee, or kids perched with homework and snacks. The dining area easily fits a four- to six-seater table, ideal for family meals or casual get-togethers. Double doors, just like in the living room, open straight onto the garden, creating a seamless flow from indoors to outdoors.

The garden is a real treat, cleverly divided into sections. To the left, a private seating area could stay as it is now, or you could add a hot tub for your own little retreat. The lawn is generous, giving the kids plenty of space to play, run around, or burn off energy. There’s also access to the parking and carport, which has been converted into a gym with lights and heating, perfect for an office, studio, or whatever you fancy.

Upstairs, you’ll find four fantastic bedrooms, three of them doubles. The principal bedroom, with its beautiful paneling, easily fits a super king-size bed while still leaving space for wardrobes and bedside tables. Naturally, there’s an en suite with a double shower and a window, making it bright and inviting.

The fourth bedroom sits next to the principal, perfect for the youngest family member to stay close to mum and dad. The other two bedrooms are similar in size, so no arguments over who gets which room. The family bathroom is stylishly finished with light tiles and includes both a bath and a shower, perfect for keeping everyone happy and making mornings and evenings that little bit easier.

More about the location.....

For a new development, Newton Leys is steeped in history. With some parts dating back as far as the Iron Age. However, it was more recently famous for brick-making from the late 19th Century, in the form of Newton Longville Brickworks. When the Brickworks closed in 1978, an old claypit was flooded to create Jubilee Lake, now more commonly known as Willow Lake, easily the jewel in Newton Leys' crown.

Newton Leys is a district that covers the southern tip of Bletchley and is split between the Borough of Milton Keynes and Aylesbury Vale. Conveniently located next to the A4146 and A5, it gives easy access to Milton Keynes, Leighton Buzzard and the M1. You have a choice of either Bletchley or Leighton Buzzard Train Stations which both offer services directly into London Euston and Birmingham.

Newton Leys Primary School opened in 2016 and accepts children from age 3 (nursery) to age 11 (Year 6). Many parents take advantage of the Grammar Schools in Aylesbury for Secondary education being only approximately 11 miles away.

In 2017 Newton Leys District Centre opened providing local conveniences such as a Costa, Chinese Takeaway, Fish and Chip Shop, Barbers, Dominos and a 8000 sq. Ft Asda. At the end of April 2019 the Turing Key pub opened its doors and has already cemented itself as the heart of the community. It is in good company as there also numerous village pubs within a few miles such as The Three Locks at Stoke Hammond, The Crooked Billet at Newton Longville and The Betsey Wynne at Swanbourne.
