Avery Close, Leighton Buzzard, LU7

Why buy this home?

If you are considering whether to purchase an apartment or a house, a coach house could be the solution as they are considered as a combination of the two providing the best of both worlds. A coach house allows you to have your own front door without concerns of noisy neighbours above and below you and some outdoor space to enjoy without the expense of purchasing a traditional house.

This spacious and well-presented detached coach house is tucked away in a quiet corner of the popular Sandhills development. You’d be forgiven for not knowing it was here as it is hidden at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, it offers a real sense of privacy. A smart metal fence encloses your own private front garden, with a gate offering easy access to the garage.

As you enter the hall through your private front door, there's space to hang your coats and a door. Stairs lead up to the accommodation where all the rooms are accessed from a landing.

The main living area is generously proportioned and filled with natural light, making it an ideal space for entertaining or simply unwinding in front of the TV. Its size allows for flexible furniture layouts, whether you prefer a modern corner sofa or a more traditional combination of sofa and armchairs, there’s plenty of room. You could even add a large dining table and chairs without the space ever feeling cramped.

Leading on from the living area is the kitchen which is fitted with shaker style units. There is plenty of storage, worktops, and space for your appliances. A huge feature of being open plan means you could have guests over who can relax in the living room whilst you entertain from the kitchen.

The main bedroom comes complete with a large, fitted wardrobe. You can comfortably fit a king-size bed in here with space for bedside tables and a chest of drawers. This room has a lovely feel to it and almost feels detached from the rest of the home.

Although the second bedroom would take a double bed, it would make a lovely guest room or a room for a young child. If you work from home, then this room could also provide the ideal space for a home office.

Across from the second bedroom is a modern shower room re-fitted to an extremely high standard. There is a large shower cubicle, a wash hand basin with vanity storage underneath it and contemporary tiling on the walls and floor. A window provides natural ventilation alongside an extractor fan and there is a heated towel rail.

There is also the bonus of a garage which has enough space to put a car in.
