Summary - 70 MENTMORE ROAD LEIGHTON BUZZARD LU7 2NZ
2 bed 1 bath Detached
Large rear garden and solid period character with update potential.
Short walk to Leighton Buzzard mainline station
Set in sought-after Linslade, this two-bedroom detached house blends period character with practical suburban convenience. The property is a short walk from Leighton Buzzard mainline station and well-regarded local schools, making it suitable for commuters and young families.
Inside, bright, well-proportioned living spaces include a sizeable lounge, separate dining room and a kitchen with generous storage. Upstairs are two good-sized bedrooms and a single family bathroom. The layout offers sensible day-to-day living, with scope to modernise and reconfigure to suit contemporary preferences.
Outside, driveway parking and a large rear garden provide valuable outdoor amenity for entertaining, children’s play and gardening. The property’s former role as a crossing keeper’s house gives it distinctive period appeal, though the mix of original fabric and flat-roofed additions means buyers should inspect rooflines and damp-prone areas.
Practical points to note: the property is solid-brick (likely no cavity insulation) and would benefit from sympathetic updating in parts. Its compact overall footprint and two-bed layout limit expansion without planning, but the home presents clear potential to add value through targeted renovation or modest extension.
