Characterful three-bedroom cottage with parking and garden, ideal for families who value period charm..
Grade II listed cottage — alterations require listed-building consent
A Grade II listed three-bedroom cottage on Kempston High Street that combines traditional character with family-sized living. The open-plan sitting area with exposed beams and a fireplace offers a cosy communal space, while two double bedrooms and a single bedroom give flexible sleeping arrangements for children or guests. Off-street parking and a small rear garden add practical convenience in a central location.
This property will suit buyers who value period detail and are prepared for the responsibilities of a listed building. Constructed before 1900 with timber-frame walls (no insulation assumed), the cottage may need sensitive updating to improve energy efficiency and comfort. Any alterations will require listed-building consent and could affect costs and timescales.
Practical considerations include a single bathroom, medium flood risk, and a small plot size. Council tax is low and local crime rates are low; several good primary and secondary schools are nearby, and local amenities and transport links are within walking distance. Overall, this is a characterful home with clear renovation and maintenance considerations—ideal for a family wanting historic charm close to town amenities.
