A charming three-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace combining period character with practical modern updates. The ground floor offers two reception rooms, a feature fireplace in the lounge, and an extended kitchen/breakfast room that opens toward the paved courtyard and small south-facing lawn — ideal for morning sun and low-maintenance outdoor living.
The first floor has three well-proportioned bedrooms, the principal featuring a bay window, and a family bathroom off the landing. The property benefits from double glazing (installed post-2002), mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and an EPC currently rated D with realistic scope to improve to C.
Positioned close to Leighton Buzzard town centre and mainline station (direct trains to London), this home suits first-time buyers wanting character plus commuter convenience. The plot is modest and the house presents as well maintained, but there is clear scope for cosmetic updating and energy-efficiency improvements to maximise long-term value.
Buyers should note a medium flood risk for the area and that the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated as built, which could affect heating costs until upgraded. The house is offered freehold and will suit those seeking a manageable family home or an owner-occupier refurb project with good local schools and transport links.
