A modern extended five double bedroom detached property with a double garage and driveway parking, and an enclosed rear garden on a corner plot in the Abbeyfields development. The property has an entrance hall which gives access to most of the ground floor accommodation and has stairs to the first floor and a cloakroom. There are three separate reception rooms including a sitting room which has a feature gas fire and double doors to the family room. The kitchen is open plan to the dining room and has an adjoining utility room with a door to the side. The dining and family rooms both have doors to a conservatory which has French doors to the rear garden giving a free flow through the space for modern family life and entertaining.

The first floor landing has a built-in airing cupboard and access five bedrooms and a four piece family bathroom. Four of the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and two of them have en suite shower rooms.

Kitchen and Utility Room The kitchen overlooks the rear garden and is fitted with a range of units with complementary work surfaces incorporating a sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include an electric double oven, a gas hob with an extractor over, and a dishwasher. The separate utility room has access to the understairs storage cupboard, space and plumbing for a washing machine and doors to the side and to the integral double garage.

The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with hedges for screening and a driveway which has space to park up to four cars in addition to an integral garage which measures nearly 18 ft. by over 16 ft. and has twin up and over doors.

The village is also famous as the birthplace of John Bunyan, author of Pilgrim’s Progress. It is less than 0.5 miles from Bedford bypass and major trunk roads include the A1 and M1.

Purchaser Compliance & Administration Fee To comply with the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017, Michael Graham is legally mandated to conduct compulsory Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Customer Due Diligence (CDD) checks on all property buyers. While we do not charge a commission fee to the property vendor, a mandatory compliance and administration fee of £54.00 (inclusive of VAT) per person is payable by the purchaser(s). This non-refundable fee covers the cost of third-party electronic identity verification, source of funds auditing, and the associated regulatory administration. This fee becomes payable upon an offer being accepted in principle and must be fully cleared before a Memorandum of Sale can be issued or solicitors instructed. The payment of this fee does not guarantee the completion of the transaction, and Michael Graham reserves the right to request further verification documentation to satisfy its statutory obligations.
