Russell Avenue, Bedford

This Victorian semi-detached home is located on the very popular Russell Avenue and therefore benefits from a superb south facing outlook over Russell Park, with The River Great Ouse glistening in the distance.

On the ground floor, the bay-fronted living room makes the most of the park views and includes an open fireplace.

At the back of the house, the kitchen has been modernised and includes a range of modern units with Corian worktops.

Moving upstairs, the master bedroom is located to the front of the house with far reaching park views. There are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Added benefits include a ground floor cloakroom and gas fired central heating served by a recently installed boiler. The property is almost entirely double glazed, with some being PVCu sliding sash units.

To the exterior there is a small enclosed frontage and to the rear, much attention to detail has been paid to the well landscaped and maintained rear garden.
