Description

A fantastic opportunity to purchase a unique property in rural Bedfordshire, on the edge of the sought after village of Houghton Conquest and close to transport links.

Mill House consists of a four bedroom house, outbuildings to include redundant windmill, grassland and woodland areas.

Location

The property is located on Mill Lane to the north of the popular village of Houghton Conquest in Bedfordshire. It is approximately 4.2 miles to the north of the historic town of Ampthill, with its range of boutique shops, and approximately 5.8 miles to the south of the county town of Bedford. The property has good transport links, with direct trains to London from Bedford station, and is within easy reach of the A6, A421 and M1. There is a good range of schools locally. The property is within the catchments for primary education in Houghton Conquest, and middle and secondary education in nearby Ampthill. The area also benefits from being close to private education in Bedford.

Description

The house, offering brick elevations under a traditional clay tile roof, offers multiple occupation purposes. Currently it offers kitchen and living accommodation on both floors, with four bedrooms located on the first floor. Two adjoining storage rooms are accessed separately to the main house. The property is in a poor condition and requires extensive work throughout. Externally, the property benefits from garden areas to the front and rear of the property. There is also a traditional timber framed outbuilding, in a dilapidated condition, along with a large timber frame greenhouse, additional ground footings, and a redundant and dilapidated brick windmill within the woodland area. The property offers approximately 7.84 acres of pasture and 7.93 acres of woodland. The woodland was formerly a tree nursery, but the majority of trees are now mature. The land has not been subject to regular maintenance.
