Plantation View, Silsoe

Set on the fringe of the popular Silsoe Grange development and enjoying an attractive outlook across landscaped green space, this substantial double-fronted detached home, built in 2015, offers over 2,000 sq ft of beautifully arranged accommodation, enhanced further by a series of thoughtful upgrades. 

The broad entrance hall sets the tone, offering an immediate sense of space and flow. To one side, the main living room enjoys generous natural light and pleasant front views, while double doors connect this room to the dining area—currently used as a playroom, where smart fitted storage has recently been added. A separate study sits to the opposite side of the hall, ideal for home working or flexible family use. A cloakroom and useful under-stairs cupboard complete the front portion of the home.

Across the back, the impressive kitchen/family room forms the heart of the house. Contemporary cabinetry is paired with recently upgraded worktops and a large central island that encourages relaxed gathering. Integrated appliances, plentiful preparation space and direct access to the garden make this a particularly sociable area. The adjoining utility room provides extra storage and a secondary entrance, perfect for dog walkers and pets with wet paws.

Upstairs, the partly galleried landing leads to four double bedrooms. The principal suite features a private en-suite and a spacious dressing room, which could be very simply converted back into bedroom five if preferred. The second bedroom also benefits from an en-suite and fitted wardrobes, while the remaining rooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

The west-facing rear garden has been designed for low-maintenance enjoyment, with artificial lawn, raised stone planters and defined zones for relaxing and entertaining. The outdoor kitchen with fully fitted gas bbq is fully sheltered, allowing for all year-round usability. A raised deck at the rear features a covered seating area, creating a cosy, weather-proof spot to unwind.

Practical improvements include the installation of an air source heat pump, considerably increasing the property’s energy efficiency. To the front, a newly installed low-height cast-iron fence and gate provide both style and definition to the frontage. The loft has been boarded for additional storage. A water softener and drinking water filter has been installed by the current owners. A detached double garage and generous driveway sit to the side, offering ample parking and storage.

Silsoe remains a highly desirable village, well-served by amenities, schooling and the vast grounds of Wrest Park—all within easy reach of excellent commuter connections.
