Frenchmans Close, Toddington, Bedfordshire, LU5

A quite superb, deceptively spacious three-bedroom semi-detached chalet home set on the fringe of the picturesque village of Toddington and benefiting from versatile internal accommodation.

Approach to the property is via a path leading to the front door, whilst an ample lawn and deep borders sit to either side. A well-tended hedge runs along the perimeter. Once inside you're immediately greeted by the entrance hall which has stairs leading to the first-floor accommodation and has wooden flooring laid and a useful storage cupboard to one end. To the rear of the home is the kitchen which has been fitted with a comprehensive range of contemporary grey shaker style floor and wall mounted units with lighter contrasting work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including a four-ring gas hob, extractor unit, and under counter oven. Space has also been afforded for other free-standing appliances such as a fridge, dishwasher and washing machine. The look is finished with white tiled splashbacks incorporating darker grey grouting, wall mounted combination boiler, two windows and a door spread between the side and rear aspects. Running parallel to here is the formal dining room which, in our opinion subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents, could be opened up to create a much larger, open plan kitchen/diner. In its current format it has ample space for a table and chairs creating a real family/sociable area and enjoys views down the garden. Completing this level is the principal reception room, the living room, which has been decorated in a range of neutral tones and hues. A large window to the front ensures the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight.

Moving upstairs the first-floor landing gives way to all the accommodation on this level, the master of which sits to the front elevation and offers generous proportions, in this instance 13'1ft by 9'10ft. The remaining two bedrooms are a further double and a single and all three are serviced by a family bathroom which has been fitted with a three-piece suite comprising of a panelled P-shaped bath with shower unit and glass screen positioned over, cistern concealed wc and a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. Modern grey tiling adorns the walls, whilst the look is contemporised further still by a heated towel rail and additional black and white mosaic stripe.

Externally the rear garden is sizeable and has been laid predominately to lawn with various mature shrubs and bushes. A patio area sits against the rear of the home and provides the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. The boundary is enclosed by timber fencing and beyond here is a single garage which is accessed by an up and over door. A shingled driveway sits in front and offers parking for one/two vehicles.

Toddington is a beautiful village designed and built around a large central green which provides a delightful focal point for the almost 5,000 residents that call it home. It is positioned five miles north-north-west of Luton, four miles north of Dunstable and six miles southwest of Woburn and offers superb commuter access to the M1 as well as the nearby mainline railway stations in Harlington and Flitwick. Dating back to the thirteenth century the village now offers a vibrant, bustling feel, combined with an authentic sense of community, and has a wide range of shops including hairdressers, beauty salon, opticians, and traditional bakers. It is also well served by three public houses, The Oddfellows, The Bell and The Griffin, in addition to Red Chilli offering high quality Indian cuisine. Schooling within the village operates on a three-tier system with St George’s Lower positioned on Manor Road, Parkfields Middle nestled in Park Road itself before moving onto Harlington Upper School located less than three and half miles, or 8 minutes, away, with all having a particularly good reputation.
