House For Sale £515,000
Imagine buying a three bedroom semi-detached family home in one of Luton’s most highly sought after school catchment areas, applying for planning permission, placing a double storey side extension and full width rear extension - doubling the overall square footage, thus living on a building site for 12 months and paying far too much money for architects, plans, materials, labour and the privilege when you could have bought this and just moved straight in.
And that’s the appeal.
Complete with five double bedrooms, you will be hard pressed to find a larger family home anywhere in Luton at this price point, let alone in the Icknield School catchment area. The construction work has been meticulously carried out and attention to detail with brick matching to both the side and rear extensions as well as the tile matching to the roof in keeping with the rest of the road.
The plot itself is still a generous one; with the large block paved driveway with a full length dropped kerb to the front providing plenty of parking and a rear garden with a mixture of patios, artificial lawn, raised beddings and sheds that create a functional, enjoyable and surprisingly low maintenance garden. The secure gated access to the side of the property provides access to additional parking and the double gates found at the bottom of the garden.
The ground floor enjoys a flowing, circular motion in its layout, with the centrally located entrance hall serving the recently refitted shower room and two large reception rooms that face out towards the front of the property. The larger lounge will accommodate the largest of families on its own and opens through the partition doors into the twenty-five foot kitchen diner that spans the width of this home.
The kitchen diner is certainly the hub of this home; bursting with natural light and opening out into the rear garden, the space and storage on offer will leave you wanting for nothing. The original kitchen of this home has now been split to allow for the shower room off of the entrance hall and a walk in pantry/utility room accessed by the new Kitchen diner. The kitchen itself features plenty of wall and base units for storage and more than enough worktop space in which to work. As part of the ground floor accommodation, a large study has also been added, ideal for those that work from home and would love the ability to close the door on the office at the end of the working day.
The first floor landing serves the large family sized bathroom and five generous double bedrooms, with one benefitting from loft access to a study/play room that makes use of the eaves storage.
There’s some great touches to this home and the extension work makes sense. Modern day living needs to be flexible and the ever increasing work from home culture requires that you should have at least one study space, where this home boasts the two.
The location lends itself to families of all ages with the schools on hand. Local shops, doctors and transport links can also be found within walking distance, including Leagrave Train Station as well as regular bus services to the Town Centre, Train Station and Airport.
And that’s the appeal.
