Description
*Guide Price - £450,000 - £475,000*
Occupying an exceptional corner plot on one of Bedford's most prestigious and sought after roads, this handsome 1930s semi detached residence has been thoughtfully extended to create a superb family home, perfectly balancing character, space and modern-day living. Offering beautifully proportioned accommodation and an outstanding rear garden that is rarely found with properties of this style, this is a home that truly stands apart.
The welcoming entrance hall leads through to an elegant bay-fronted sitting room ( or used as Bedroom 4), while a second family room provides a cosy yet versatile living space, centred around a feature wood burning stove. To the rear of the property, the impressive extension has created a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining room, fitted with a comprehensive range of contemporary units, a central island and ample space for both family dining and entertaining. Large bi-fold doors open seamlessly onto the garden, flooding the room with natural light and creating an excellent connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. A convenient downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor.
The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, all served by a family bathroom.
One of the home's most outstanding features is the exceptional rear garden. Thanks to its unique corner plot position, the property enjoys a significantly larger garden than neighbouring homes, with an impressive expanse of lawn, beautifully established borders, extensive patio seating areas, and an excellent degree of privacy. At the rear sits a substantial timber garden room, ideal as a home office, gym, studio or entertaining space, while a detached garage and additional storage further enhance the practicality of the property.
To the front, a block-paved driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to the garage.
Location
Risborough Road remains one of Bedford's most desirable residential addresses, ideally positioned within easy walking distance of the picturesque Embankment, Russell Park and the independent cafés, restaurants and boutiques of the Castle Quarter. Bedford's town centre, highly regarded schools, mainline railway station offering fast services to London, and excellent road links are all within easy reach, making this an outstanding location for families and commuters alike.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an extended character home with an exceptional plot in one of Bedford's finest locations, offering generous living accommodation, a remarkable garden and excellent potential for years of family enjoyment.
