About this home

A Charming Two Bedroom Victorian Terrace in Bedford's Highly Sought After Castle Quarter

Simon Goodacre Property is delighted to present this beautifully presented two bedroom terraced home, perfectly positioned within Bedford's ever popular Castle Quarter. Offering a wonderful blend of period character, modern comforts, and a highly desirable location, this attractive property is ideal for first time buyers, professionals, downsizers, or anyone looking to enjoy everything this vibrant part of Bedford has to offer.

Having recently undergone redecoration throughout, with new carpets where fitted, the property is presented in excellent order. It offers a fantastic opportunity for purchasers looking for a home they can move straight into and enjoy.

Stepping inside, an entrance porch leads through to a spacious and characterful open-plan lounge and dining room. This impressive living space benefits from a bay window to the front, an additional window to the rear, attractive stripped wooden floorboards and a feature staircase, creating a warm and welcoming setting for both relaxing and entertaining.

To the rear, the modern fitted kitchen offers a range of wall and base units, generous worktop space and an integrated oven and hob. Beyond the kitchen is a useful utility area, providing additional storage and workspace, together with access to the rear garden and a convenient ground floor cloakroom.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys two windows overlooking the front and benefits from built in wardrobes, while the second bedroom provides a versatile space, equally suited as a guest bedroom, nursery or home office.

Completing the first floor is a particularly spacious family bathroom, fitted with a four piece white suite comprising a panelled bath, separate shower enclosure, wash hand basin with vanity storage and WC.

Outside, the property enjoys an enclosed rear garden, thoughtfully arranged with a combination of patio and timber decking, offering an attractive, low maintenance space for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the warmer months. Side pedestrian access provides additional practicality.

Further benefits include UPVC double glazing, gas central heating and the recent cosmetic improvements throughout.
