Light-filled and characterful, this substantial four-double-bedroom barn conversion sits in a peaceful courtyard with nearly a third of an acre of paddock and a private walled courtyard garden. The principal living room is placed upstairs to maximise the far-reaching rural views, while generous downstairs bedrooms open onto the quieter outlooks and grounds. Original features such as exposed brickwork, high vaulted ceilings and substantial timber beams combine with modern fittings for comfortable family living.
Practical benefits include brick-and-slate car ports for three cars plus communal parking and a large gravelled courtyard. Local life is village-centred — a church, a popular pub, community hall and excellent countryside walks are all within easy reach. Bedford town is around six miles away with fast rail links to London, and both state and private schooling options are nearby.
Notable practical points: broadband speeds in the area are slow, council tax is described as quite expensive and local recorded crime is above average. The main living space is on the first floor, which may be less suitable for someone with limited mobility. Overall, the property is a high-quality family home with significant outdoor space and strong period character, but buyers should allow for connectivity limits and the local cost-of-living measures.
This is a rare re-sale opportunity within an established conversion development; for families seeking space, countryside lifestyle and character accommodation within commuting distance of Bedford, it offers substantial appeal.
