Urban & Rural Property Services - Ampthill - Ref: AMP260269-L

An exceptional six bedroom detached split level residence extending to approximately 3,607 sq ft, beautifully positioned on the edge of the village and set within immaculately landscaped gardens approaching 0.43 acres.

Available for fairly immediate occupation (subject to successful completion of the necessary referencing checks)

The property is approached via an extensive driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles. A mature lawn flanks one side, interspersed with attractive silver birch and holly trees. An archway leads through to additional parking, a double garage with remotely operated door, and a further garage with twin doors.

Upon entering, a welcoming entrance hall sets the tone for the generous accommodation and provides access to a cloakroom. The impressive kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units, complemented by quality work surfaces and a superb central island. A separate utility room enhances practicality and storage.

This level also benefits from a dedicated study/office ideal for home working together with a spacious principal reception room. The main living room measures an impressive 189 x 152 and enjoys windows and French doors to multiple elevations, flooding the space with natural light. A cosy family room/snug and a formal dining room, comfortably accommodating a large table and chairs, create excellent spaces for both everyday living and entertaining.

Steps rise to the upper ground floor where three well-proportioned bedrooms can be found. One enjoys the luxury of a dressing room and en-suite, while another is served by a large bathroom.

A staircase from this level leads down to the lower ground floor, offering highly versatile accommodation which, in our opinion, could easily function as a self-contained annexe for a dependent relative or teenager. This level includes an 11ft kitchen, three further bedrooms (one of which could alternatively serve as a beautiful dual-aspect sitting room), and a shower room.

Externally, the gardens are a true highlight. A generous paved patio wraps around the property, ideal for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. Beyond, expansive lawns are framed by an array of mature plants, shrubs, and established trees, creating a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity. A charming hexagonal summerhouse provides a shaded retreat, while the boundaries are enclosed by post and rail fencing.

The village of Lidlington is located between the major towns of Bedford and Milton Keynes. Commuter Links into London St Pancras from Flitwick [10 minutes] or Bedford take approximately 40 minutes and from Milton Keynes direct into Euston take as little as 35 minutes. The village itself offers a rail service to both Bedford and Bletchley. Major road links are from M1, J13 which is less than ten minutes drive from the property. Local amenities include a convenience store, public house/eateries and sports clubs and facilities. There are various bridleways and footpaths surrounding the property including the ‘Greensand Ridge‘ which is protected by the forestry commission and mature woodland. The ‘Forest Centre‘ and ‘Millennium Country Park‘ is in the neighbouring village of Marston Moretaine which is less than a five minute drive, as is the Georgian town of Ampthill with its many services and facilities.

Nearby, the popular Center Parcs Woburn Forest offers over 300 acres of beautiful woodland, complete with a subtropical swimming paradise, spa and a wide range of leisure facilities, making it a major attraction for visitors to the area. Looking ahead, the planned Universal Studios resort in Bedfordshire is set to further boost the regions profile, bringing significant investment, employment opportunities and international recognition to this already well-connected and thriving location.
