Large-period family home with huge garden and renovation potential.
Four double bedrooms on two floors
A substantial 1930s detached family home set on a large mature plot in an exclusive Bedford road. The house offers four double bedrooms, generous reception rooms and a long rear garden — ideal for growing families seeking space and potential.
The property requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic and systems upgrades are needed, and the EPC is F (38). Accommodation includes two reception rooms, a garden room, kitchen/breakfast with pantry, downstairs cloakroom, an integral garage and a large part-boarded loft that offers conversion potential subject to planning.
Practical strengths include double glazing, gas central heating, driveway parking and very low local crime. It sits within strong state and independent school catchments and is well placed for Bedford town centre, mainline rail and regional road links — appealing to commuters who want character and a large garden to personalise.
Buyers should budget for renovation costs and higher running charges: the house has only one bathroom and is in Council Tax Band F (expensive). For those willing to invest, the layout and plot provide clear scope for extension and modern family living in a sought-after neighbourhood.
