A well-presented Victorian terrace in central Bedford, offered chain free and ready for immediate occupation. The house blends period charm—fireplaces, stripped wood floors and sash-style windows—with practical modern fittings in the kitchen and bathroom. Recent re-roofing and a gas combination boiler to radiators add to the move-in convenience.
Accommodation is compact and thoughtfully arranged for city living. The property provides two double bedrooms with fitted storage, a front sitting room and an open-plan rear reception/kitchen that opens onto a private rear garden of about 40ft. A half-cellar and ground-floor cloakroom give useful storage and day-to-day practicality.
Buyers should note this is a modest end-terrace footprint on a small plot, typical of its era. The external walls are original solid brick and assumed to be uninsulated; double glazing is fitted but install dates are unknown. Energy efficiency is average (EER: D). This home will suit first-time buyers seeking period character and central convenience, or investors after a straightforward, chain-free purchase with easy local rental appeal.
