Summary - 140 HOWBURY STREET BEDFORD MK40 3QS
4 bed 2 bath End of Terrace
Extended house with generous west-facing garden and loft bedroom.
Bay-fronted sitting room with original sash windows and Victorian fireplace
This larger-than-average Victorian end-of-terrace combines period character with modern living across three floors. The house keeps original features — bay sash window, decorative mouldings and a Victorian-style fireplace — while offering a contemporary refitted kitchen/diner with quartz worktops and integrated appliances. Two sets of double doors open onto a private, west-facing garden approximately 64 ft long, ideal for afternoon and evening sun.
Accommodation includes a bay-fronted sitting room, cloakroom, utility, two double bedrooms on the first floor plus a study/occasional fourth bedroom, and a top-floor principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and ensuite. The property benefits from a useful side passage providing off-street storage/parking and a small walled forecourt to the front.
Practical points to note: the house is solid brick and was built before 1900, so wall insulation may be limited and heating is via mains gas boiler and radiators. Double glazing is present but install date is unknown. The plot is typical for inner-suburban terraces — small front garden and a narrow side passage — and overall internal space is average for a family home of this type.
Presented in good decorative order with modern kitchen and bathrooms, this property will suit a family or professionals wanting close access to the Castle Quarter, Embankment and town centre. Interested buyers should verify services, fixtures and fittings independently and factor in potential energy-efficiency improvements for solid-wall construction.
