Positioned on the prestigious The Crescent in central Bedford, this rarely available three-bedroom dwelling blends period character with spacious and practical single-storey living.
Originally part of a small, architecturally notable development, the property has been cared for by the same owner for many years and represents a rare opportunity to own a home rich in character, with potential to modernise or extend (subject to planning).
A welcoming entrance hall leads into the heart of the home - generously sized split-level living and dining room. This space is flooded with natural light thanks to its large windows and features a glazed door opening directly onto the rear garden, creating a seamless flow between indoors and out. The galley-style kitchen offers storage and worktop space, and is adjacent to a separate utility room.
Accommodation includes three comfortable bedrooms, a dedicated study/home office, a modern shower room, a full bathroom, and a separate WC - making the home ideal for family living, guests, or working from home.
The private rear garden is a true highlight, offering a tranquil space with a neatly maintained lawn, mature trees and a sunny paved patio area. To the front, a private driveway provides off-road parking for one vehicle.
With gas central heating, double glazing, and a prime location in one of Bedford’s most desirable areas, this is a rare opportunity to secure a charming and versatile property with historical significance and lifestyle potential.
The town centre is within a short walking distance and offers a wide array of amenities including pubs, restaurants and museums, as well as the highly regarded Harpur Trust schools. Ideally located for commuting, the nearby Bedford train station offers fast trains to London in as little as 40 minutes. Bedford is also well-connected via major road links.
