House For Sale £345,000
This beautiful three bedroom double fronted character home occupies a wonderful, central village position and incorporates a wealth of period charm combined seamlessly with contemporary interiors.
Approach to the home is via a smart red composite front door which opens into the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 20'6ft by 11'5ft making for flexible furniture placement. To one end an attractive wood burning stove sits within an exposed brick fireplace, whilst a darker stone floor has been laid. Windows to both the front and side elevations ensure the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight. Beyond here is the dining area which comfortably affords ample space for a table and chairs, ensuring a real family/sociable area, in addition to a staircase which runs to the first-floor accommodation. Nestled to the other side is the kitchen which has been fitted with a comprehensive range of light grey, high gloss floor and wall mounted units with wooden work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been cleverly woven into the design including a hob, stainless steel extractor hood, and under counter oven. Space has also been provided for a free-standing dishwasher. A beautiful, tiled floor has been laid throughout the two areas, tying them together seamlessly. Completing this level is an outer lobby which is currently utilised as a utility area, making the perfect space for a washing machine. Windows run across the back and a door opens into the rear garden.
Moving upstairs the first-floor landing gives way to all the accommodation on this level, the master of which sits to the front aspect and has picture rails and wide, whitewashed floorboards. A useful storage cupboard is positioned to one corner. Of the remaining two bedrooms one nestles alongside at the front, whilst the other glances across the rear elevation. They are all serviced by a stylishly refitted four-piece bathroom incorporating a free-standing roll top bath, separate shower enclosure, low level wc and pedestal wash hand basin. Modern, white monobloc tiling adorns the walls and an attractive mosaic flooring has been laid.
Externally the courtyard rear garden has been designed with a low maintenance feel in mind, with ample hard standing area, perfect for relaxing/entertaining whilst the boundary is enclosed by an attractive curved brick wall. Beyond here is a single garage accessed via twin timber doors.
The village of Barton-Le-Clay is a civil parish in the central Bedfordshire district bordering Hertfordshire, situated on the A6 corridor between the major towns of Luton and Bedford, sitting at the foot of The Chiltern hills, which is an area of outstanding natural beauty. The village offers a variety of commercial facilities to include a local shop, bakers, a number of public houses, restaurants and a Co-Op store. The area operates on a three-tier academic system to include Ramsay Lower, Arnold Middle and Harlington Upper and Sixth Form College. There is also a local pick-up point for the Bedford Harpur Trust schools. Leisure facilities include Barton playing fields, Barton Rovers FC and immediate access on to the Chilterns with a number of designated hiking routes. Mainline services for the commuter depart from the Harlington or Flitwick platforms, with a direct route into London St Pancras taking approximately 35 and 40 minutes respectively. The M1 motorway J12 is approximately a 20-minute drive from the village, whereas Luton Airport operates both domestic and international flights and is around a 25-minute drive.
