5 bed detached house for sale

Swallow Close, Olney MK46

Description:

Partial virtual tour available on this home! Whole house coming soon.

A carefully built and exceptionally finished five-bedroom house in one of Olney's quieter spots. This is a substantial family home with well-proportioned rooms, a practical layout and a clear focus on quality throughout.

The entrance hall is wide and bright with sightlines through to the garden and a staircase rising through the middle of the house. The ground floor layout is balanced and generous. The main living space is the open plan kitchen dining and sitting area that stretches across the back of the house. It's an impressive space but it also works well for day-to-day life. The kitchen is sleek and understated with granite worktops, contemporary units and integrated appliances. Two sets of bifold doors open onto the garden, drawing in natural light and making the most of the outdoor space in warmer months. There's plenty of room for a large dining table and a relaxed seating area which makes this the clear social hub of the house.

Next to the kitchen is a utility room with matching finishes and separate access to the side of the property. The living room faces the front and is calm and inviting with a feature fireplace and space to stretch out properly. A cloakroom is tucked off the hallway under the stairs.

Upstairs, the first floor is arranged around a large landing. The main bedroom sits within its own wing, spanning from front to back, and includes a fitted dressing room as well as a smart ensuite with walk-in shower and bath. Two further bedrooms also have their own ensuites, which makes the layout ideal for families with older children or regular guests. The fourth and fifth bedrooms (currently used as an office) share a well finished family bathroom with a separate shower and bath.

Outside the back garden is secure and private. A wide paved terrace runs along the rear of the house with space for outdoor furniture and dining. Beyond that is a level lawn enclosed by timber fencing. Gated access down the side leads to the front. The integral double garage has two electric roller doors and there is private parking on the driveway.

The house sits on Swallow Close, a quiet residential street just beyond the centre of Olney. The town is popular for good reason. Handsome Georgian buildings, a strong sense of community and a wide range of independent shops and cafés. The M1 is just over seven miles away and trains from Milton Keynes reach London Euston in under forty minutes.

Location Information:

Olney is a historic market town with a strong community feel and a well-kept high street full of independent shops, cafés, pubs and essentials. There's a weekly market in the market square and several local events through the year including a well-known pancake race and a popular Christmas fair. The town has a butcher, baker, deli, wine merchant, pharmacy and a good range of places to eat and drink. There's also a small supermarket, a gp surgery and a dentist.

For families there's a well-regarded primary and middle school in town and a number of secondary options in the surrounding area. Emberton Country Park is just outside the town with lakeside walks, woodland trails, picnic areas and a large playground. Slightly further afield is Salcey Forest with more walking and cycling routes plus a treetop trail and café.

The surrounding countryside is peaceful and open with riverside walks along the Great Ouse and a network of footpaths connecting the town to nearby villages. Despite the rural setting transport links are strong. The M1 is about seven miles away and trains from Milton Keynes or Bedford make London a realistic daily commute.

For a larger choice of shops and restaurants Milton Keynes is around twenty minutes by car. Bedford and Northampton are also within easy reach. Olney sits in a quiet corner between the three but holds its own as a destination thanks to its character, setting and sense of place.

Approx. Distances:

Milton Keynes - around 12 miles, approx. 20 minutes by car

Bedford - around 13 miles, approx. 25 minutes by car

Luton Airport - around 30 miles, approx. 40 minutes by car

London (Central) - approx. 60 miles, around 40 minutes by train from Milton Keynes or just under 90 minutes by car depending on traffic
