West End Lane, Silsoe

An Exceptional Executive Residence in a Prestigious Village Setting.

Occupying a discreet and highly desirable end-of-lane position in the charming village of Silsoe, this outstanding four-bedroom detached home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully crafted residence with an abundance of character, flexible living space, and a front aspect that opens out onto idyllic open countryside. With commanding views across green fields and a thoughtfully landscaped, sociable rear garden, this home is a showcase of contemporary comfort, elegant design, and tranquil surroundings.

Silsoe itself is a picturesque and historic Bedfordshire village known for its period architecture, strong community spirit, and excellent accessibility to nearby towns such as Ampthill, Flitwick, and Bedford. It is home to the magnificent English Heritage site Wrest Park and boasts a well-regarded lower school, village shop, and gastro pub, all set amidst beautiful rolling countryside. Transport links are strong, with nearby Flitwick offering a mainline rail service to London St Pancras, and both the A6 and M1 within easy reach.

Upon approach, the property is accessed via an electric five-bar gate, opening onto a generous shingled driveway that provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. A detached double garage with twin timber doors and offers both practicality and character, adding to the home’s rural charm.

Internally, the home offers approximately 2,100 sq ft (Including Garage) of impeccably presented accommodation, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall. A cloakroom with WC and wash basin is conveniently located nearby. To the left, the heart of the home lies in the expansive kitchen/dining/family room—an impressive, multi-functional space extending over 23ft. Fitted with a bespoke combination of base units, granite work surfaces, and handcrafted wooden storage cupboards, the kitchen merges timeless style with practicality. There is space for a large dining table and seating area, ideal for everyday living and entertaining alike. Adjacent is a utility room with matching cabinetry and space for additional appliances.

The rear of the property reveals a magnificent sitting/garden room with a vaulted ceiling and stylish flooring. Full-width bi-folding doors seamlessly connect this striking space to the garden beyond, creating a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle experience filled with natural light.

The main living room benefits from a dual aspect and boasts a generous footprint of 18’6” x 14’9”, offering flexible furniture placement. An exposed brick fireplace adds warmth and character, while rich wooden flooring enhances the room’s sophisticated ambiance. A further reception space currently serves as a home office/playroom, enjoying field views to the front through charming French doors.

Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to four well-appointed bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys dual-aspect views, integrated wardrobes, and a stylish en-suite bathroom with modern tiling and a P-shaped bath with overhead shower. Two additional double bedrooms offer generous proportions, while the fourth bedroom is currently arranged as a dressing room but could easily revert to a single bedroom or nursery. These rooms are served by a beautifully finished family bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, monobloc black-and-white tiling, and a traditional checkerboard floor.

The rear garden is a true highlight—designed for both entertaining and relaxation. A substantial paved terrace flows directly from the garden room, creating an ideal space for al fresco dining and social gatherings. Beyond, steps lead down to a manicured lawn, bordered by raised timber planters and mature planting. A secondary seating area with a bespoke fixed bench and a tranquil rockery provides a peaceful retreat, while a practical timber shed is neatly tucked away. The entire garden is enclosed with timber fencing and mature hedging, offering excellent privacy and a secure environment for children or pets.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a high-specification, individual home in one of Bedfordshire’s most desirable village settings, blending privacy, rural views, and sociable living in perfect harmony.
