4 bed detached bungalow for sale

Shakespeare Road, Bedford MK40

An opportunity to acquire a very individual detached chalet style property built in the first half of the last century and much improved in the intervening years.

The ground floor accommodation is spacious and includes a large reception hall accessed from a PVCu framed double glazed entrance porch large enough to accommodate a sofa to allow one to sit overlooking the front garden. The living room is a generous size with double doors opening in to the family room enabling the rooms to be combined should the need arise.

The property was extended in around 2015 and now has a good size kitchen/dining room that overlooks the south-west facing courtyard rear garden. The ground floor accommodation is completed by two double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a separate shower.

On the first floor there is a double bedroom with a spacious en suite shower room and a single bedroom that could be used as a study if desired.

Additional benefits include gas fired central heating and PVCu double glazed windows.

Externally there are formal gardens to the front that are laid to lawn with established flowerbeds and borders and there is a courtyard garden at the rear that is block paved and the ideal place for tubs and pots and a low maintenance garden. There is access from here to the garage and good off-road parking.

Shakespeare Road is well located for access to the A6 connecting Bedford to the M1 and A1 via the A421 southern bypass and is also well placed for local Sainsbury and Aldi supermarkets and schooling in both the private and state sectors.

Bedford’s town centre with its wider range of facilities is also within walking distance as are many other recreational amenities. Bedford’s mainline station offering fast and frequent services to the capital and beyond is just a short walk away.
