Birch Close, Cranfield, MK43

Why buy this home?

Tucked away in a small, peaceful cul de sac in Cranfield, this modern four-bedroom home on Birch Close offers that ideal balance between village life and everyday convenience. You’re just a short walk from the village’s shops, schools and countryside walks, yet far enough out to enjoy a real sense of calm and privacy.

At the front, a low-maintenance garden and a pleasant green space give the home a welcoming feel — and the added bonus of not opening straight onto the road.

Step inside and you’re greeted by a generous hallway that immediately feels inviting. There’s plenty of space for coats, shoes and even a buggy, with durable LVT flooring that’s both smart and practical for family life.

To the left of the hallway, the living room offers a calm and comfortable place to unwind. With a window to the front and French doors opening onto the south-facing rear garden, it’s filled with natural light from morning to evening, creating a lovely bright atmosphere all year round.

Across the hallway, the kitchen and dining area span the depth of the house — a bright, open-plan space created by the current owners who removed the dividing wall to make one large, sociable room. There’s a peninsular breakfast bar, room for a family-sized dining table, and a built-in home office zone — ideal for working from home or helping with homework. The kitchen itself is well-equipped, with ample storage and worktop space, and a door leading directly out to the garden.

Also on the ground floor, there’s a good-sized cloakroom that doubles up as a handy utility space, with room for a tumble dryer and additional storage.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms. Three are comfortable doubles, while the fourth — a large single, not your usual box room. The main bedroom enjoys fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room, and the family bathroom is neatly tiled with a window for natural light and ventilation.

Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight — south-facing, private and not overlooked. There’s a generous lawn, mature planting, and a paved patio with a pergola that’s perfect for outdoor dining or summer
