Central location near shops, schools and direct train links to London.
Two double bedrooms and separate lounge and dining areas
This mid-terrace Victorian cottage on Ivel Road blends period character with practical everyday living. Two double bedrooms and separate lounge and dining areas make it a comfortable home for a couple, small family or first-time buyer seeking easy access to local schools and shops. The property is freehold and benefits from double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas heating and an enclosed rear garden with side access.
Location is a strong selling point: a short stroll to Shefford High Street amenities and countryside walks, with Arlesey station close by for a direct commute to London. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and connectivity. Council tax is described as affordable.
Buyers should note tangible trade-offs. The house was built around 1850 with solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation; energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. The plot is small and external space is low-maintenance rather than spacious. Local crime levels are noted as high, which some buyers will want to investigate further. Overall the home offers character and convenience but may benefit from targeted updating and insulation work to improve comfort and running costs.
This property suits purchasers looking for a characterful, well-located two-bedroom with scope to add modern efficiencies. Viewings are recommended for anyone wanting an affordable freehold home close to schools, shops and rail links, with the potential to personalise over time.
