Turnpike Road, Husborne Crawley, MK43

Why buy this home?

This beautifully presented period-style home is ideal for anyone seeking character features combined with a modern lifestyle. As you approach the property from the rear, you are greeted by a detached garden office, perfect for those working from home who want a clear separation between work and personal life. This versatile space also includes a shower room, meaning it can comfortably serve as a guest bedroom, with space for a single bed and plenty of privacy.

Beyond the office, you step into a charming courtyard garden. Designed with a European feel, the courtyard is fully paved for low maintenance while still providing a lovely suntrap to enjoy throughout the warmer months. Bi-fold doors connect the courtyard to the kitchen and dining area, creating a bright, open space that is ideal for entertaining. Thoughtful additions such as under-stairs storage help maintain a clean and organised layout, keeping the kitchen free from everyday clutter.

At the front of the property, the living room offers a cosy retreat. A log burner with a tiled surround adds warmth and character, while the original sash window offers a lovely outlook to the front. This space is perfect for relaxing at the end of the day.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a generous double with space for a king-size bed and wardrobes. The second bedroom is a comfortable single and could also work well as a dressing room or extra storage, particularly given the flexibility offered by the detached office space. To finish off the upstairs accommodation there is a family bathroom which has a sky light allowing natural daylight in.

A real highlight of this property is the large garden, leased from the Duke of Bedford for a modest fee. This outdoor space is a much-loved part of the current owner’s lifestyle, offering ample room for visiting grandchildren to play or for hosting summer garden parties.

Completing the offering is a larger-than-average single garage, providing excellent storage for items that are useful but not needed on a daily basis.
