Set in Bedford’s sought-after Castle Quarter, this newly renovated 3-bedroom Victorian semi blends period charm with contemporary living. High ceilings, bay windows and original details meet a modern kitchen, new boiler and double glazing for comfortable everyday living. The house spans approximately 911 sq ft and sits on a small, west-facing plot with a low-maintenance, landscaped garden that’s ideal for family life and evening sun.
The ground floor offers well-zoned living: a bright bay-front sitting room, a dining room linked to a versatile breakfast room, and a modern rear kitchen with black-framed French doors onto the garden. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a single family bathroom with a freestanding bath and overhead shower — convenient, but a single bathroom may be limiting for larger families.
Practical upgrades include a recently installed boiler, modern kitchen appliances, contemporary electrical fittings (Corston switches/sockets) and an outbuilding with power and lighting that suits home-studio or storage use. Built circa 1900–1929 with cob walls, the property retains character but may require specialist attention for any future structural or repair works associated with traditional construction.
Location is a major strength: excellent school catchments (including an Outstanding-rated primary), easy access to Russell Park and the Embankment, local independent shops on Castle Road, and good transport links into Bedford town centre and London. The home is freehold, in a very affluent and low-crime area, making it well suited to families seeking character, convenience and finished, move-in-ready accommodation.
