4 bed detached bungalow for sale

The Paddock, Biddenham, Bedford MK40

Set close to the centre of the older part of the highly sought-after village of Biddenham, this rarely available detached bungalow is offered for sale for the first time since it was sold new in 1995. It is set in a quiet cul-de-sac of similar modern homes and is available with no onward chain.

The property has been extended and offers scope for further alteration, if required.

There is a commanding entrance hall, providing a spacious and free-flowing route to the accommodation.

The living room is immediately off the hallway and is a very spacious room overlooking the front elevation. There is a gas coal-effect fire, while double doors connect to an equally impressive separate dining room. An adjoining conservatory provides a further living space.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well presented, with granite worktops and a quality range of units incorporating Bosch appliances. A functional utility room provides a further useful space.

There are four bedrooms, and a separate study with fitted office furniture. The study could be redesigned to be used as a fifth bedroom if required. Two of the bedrooms have en suite facilities, either of which could be used as a master bedroom. The remaining bedrooms have use of a family bathroom.

Further benefits include a cloakroom, gas central heating, double glazing and a large loft.

Outside, the property is fully enclosed by mature hedgerows. The frontage offers extensive block-paved off-road parking, in addition to a double garage with electric doors. The secluded rear garden faces approximately south and is laid mainly to lawn.

Biddenham lies just to the West of Bedford and is the closest village to the town being just two miles from Bedford’s mainline railway station offering fast and frequent services, from 41 minutes, to the city and beyond. Biddenham is ideally located to take advantage of Bedford’s link to the A421 that connects the M1 at Junction 13 with the A1 at the Black Cat roundabout.

Biddenham is a prosperous village with three schools, Biddenham International School and Sports College, St James’ va Primary School and St James’ & St Gregory’s Catholic Primary School and a Public House. The Biddenham Pavilion in the centre of the village offers a wide range of opportunities both sporting and social to include two hard tennis courts. Biddenham is also ideally situated for access to Bedford’s town centre for shopping and recreational facilities as well as for Bedford’s wealth of private schooling offered by the Harpur Trust and others.
