Summary - 43, CLOPHILL ROAD, BEDFORD, GRAVENHURST MK45 4JH
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Four-bedroom detached home with 250 ft private garden and village outlook.
Double-fronted detached Victorian-style home with period features
A substantial double-fronted detached home set in a peaceful mid-Bedfordshire hamlet, this four-bedroom property sits behind a gated frontage and gravel driveway with an attached garage. The house retains period character — high ceilings, working fireplaces and Victorian-style bathroom fittings — and benefits from double glazing and generous family living spaces including a separate lounge, dining room, family room and conservatory.
The standout feature is the mature, private 250 ft rear garden with lawns, productive vegetable plot, greenhouse and gated access to the adjoining recreation park — a rare outdoor asset for family life and gardening enthusiasts. The large kitchen/breakfast room and adjoining reception rooms give flexible space for family living, homeworking or play, while three double bedrooms and an ensuite to the principal bedroom suit a growing household.
Practical points to note: heating is by an oil-fired boiler and broadband speeds are slow in this location. The property offers clear potential to extend or modernise subject to planning, and the large plot supports further development if required. Some thermal improvements are likely worth considering, as the wall construction is cavity with no assumed insulation.
This home is best for families seeking space, outdoor life and village schooling (nearby Gravenhurst Academy) who are comfortable managing a period house’s ongoing maintenance and upgrading heating or insulation over time. Interested buyers should verify services and appliance condition independently, and plan for potential improvements to heating and connectivity if current standards are important.
