Set within a private gated enclave of just four contemporary homes beside 600 acres of ancient woodland, this 4,000 sq ft detached house offers modern, sustainable family living in a highly desirable village setting. The Cedar House combines generous living areas, a southerly aspect and extensive glazing with low‑carbon systems including solar panels, a borehole, rainwater harvesting and an air‑source heat pump (installed 2019).
The ground floor is arranged for open‑plan family life and entertaining: a bespoke Shaker kitchen with integrated Bosch appliances flows into breakfast and sitting areas, with sliding doors to a wrap‑around deck and lawn. Five bedrooms all have refitted en‑suite access; the top floor provides flexible space for a fifth bedroom, gym or study. Triple glazing and underfloor heating improve comfort and efficiency throughout.
Practical positives include private gated access, a double carport and off‑street parking, plus a huge landscaped plot that affords woodland views and a strong sense of privacy. The location delivers excellent transport links — Leighton Buzzard rail services to London and easy access to the M1 and Luton Airport — while local schools and village amenities are close by.
Considerations: the house sits in an area reported with above‑average crime, and the substantial grounds will require ongoing maintenance. Council Tax is Band H. The property’s scale and high‑spec fittings suit an owner looking for a spacious, sustainable family home rather than a low‑maintenance lock‑up.
