Dunstable Road, Toddington, Bedfordshire, LU5

This stylish, three-bedroom semi-detached period home has been thoughtfully extended and occupies a highly sought after position close to the heart of Toddington village.

Approach to the home is onto an ample block paved driveway, accessed by double timber gates, which allows parking for several vehicles, whilst a useful EV charging point has also been installed. The frontage has been immaculately tended with a well-kept lawn, various bushes and colourful magnolia tree, in addition to a brick wall topped with smart railings. Once inside you're immediately greeted by the entrance hall which has stairs to one side leading to the first-floor accommodation and to the far end the kitchen/breakfast room. This incorporates a range of light-coloured floor and wall mounted units with darker, contrasting work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including an induction hob, double oven and dishwasher, whilst recessed spotlights dot the ceiling and French doors and a window enjoy views down the garden. A beautiful solid wood breakfast bar sits under the window and provides superb informal seating capacity. A separate utility room provides space for additional free-standing appliances such as a washing machine and fridge/freezer. Nestled parallel to here is the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 13'9ft by 11'10ft making for flexible furniture placement. A cast iron fireplace creates a real focal point to the room, whilst twin windows to the rear elevation ensure the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight. Completing this level is the second reception room, utilised as a more formal dining room, and comfortably accommodating a table and chairs. It has an imposing cast iron fireplace to one side with a beautiful, tiled hearth and chunky timber mantle over.

Moving upstairs the first-floor landing gives way to all the accommodation on this level, the master bedroom of which sits to the rear elevation and extends to 13'9ft by 11'10ft, whilst the remaining two bedrooms are also particularly well proportioned, one which nestles to the front and the other to the rear. They are all serviced by a shower room which has been stunningly refitted with a three-piece suite incorporating a shower enclosure, cistern concealed wc and wash hand basin set into a contemporary vanity unit. The look is finished with a heated chrome towel rail, modern monobloc tiling and recessed lighting.

Externally the rear garden is sizeable and has been thoughtfully designed and executed to offer a beautiful, tranquil space. As you step out, you're immediately welcomed by a covered patio, ideal for relaxing or entertaining, beyond which the remainder of the garden has been laid to lawn, flanked by deep established borders stocked full of an array of plants, shrubs and bushes. Shaped hedging run along the rear and the entirety of the boundary is enclosed by timber fencing.

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.
