About this home

An exceptional opportunity to acquire an impressive, substantially extended five-bedroom detached residence situated on the prestigious Day’s Lane, one of Biddenham’s most exclusive and highly sought-after addresses. Positioned on this distinguished residential road just west of Bedford, this outstanding family home occupies a generous plot of approximately one third of an acre and offers a superb balance of space and versatility, with thoughtfully arranged accommodation extending across two floors.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a convenient enclosed porch, with double doors leading into the spacious and grand entrance hall. The entrance hall provides access to the open-plan dining room, which features an attractive bow window allowing plenty of natural light into the space. The spacious formal living room is positioned to the right and benefits from a feature log burner, while internal French doors lead through into the expansive family room.

The family room forms a central hub of the home, with two sets of French doors and an abundance of windows creating a bright and inviting atmosphere, while providing an impressive and versatile space for both entertaining and everyday family living.

The fitted kitchen/breakfast room features a stylish skylight and integrated appliances, and provides direct access to the spacious utility room.

A large ground-floor bedroom is located just off the family room and benefits from a well-proportioned shower room, providing excellent flexibility and potential for annex accommodation.

Upstairs, the central landing leads to four further bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and benefits from fitted storage, alongside a feature bay window overlooking the rear garden. A large en suite serves the bedroom, complete with a bath and separate shower, and finished with floor-to-ceiling tiling. The second bedroom is another generous size double, featuring a characterful bow window and fitted storage, while the remaining two bedrooms are also doubles and are served by the large family bathroom.

Externally, the property continues to impress with an exceptionally landscaped private rear garden. Predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by mature, well-stocked borders, the garden provides a peaceful and secluded setting with beautiful views. A large patio area offers the perfect space for alfresco dining and can be accessed directly from the family room, creating a seamless connection between the internal and external living spaces.

To the front of the property, a practical in-and-out driveway provides ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles, together with access to the good size garage. Additional benefits include gas central heating and double glazing throughout.

Day’s Lane is widely regarded as one of Biddenham’s most prestigious addresses, offering an exclusive and peaceful setting within this highly desirable Bedfordshire village.

Biddenham lies just to the West of Bedford and is the closest village to the town with Day’s Lane, a private road, being just two miles from Bedford’s mainline railway station offering fast and frequent services, from 41 minutes, to the city and beyond. Biddenham is ideally located to take advantage of Bedford’s link to the A421 that connects the M1 at Junction 13 with the A1 at the Black Cat roundabout.

Biddenham is a prosperous village with three schools, Biddenham International School and Sports College, St James’ VA Primary School and St James’ & St Gregory’s Catholic Primary School and a Public House. The Biddenham Pavilion in the centre of the village offers a wide range of opportunities both sporting and social to include two hard tennis courts. Biddenham is also ideally situated for access to Bedford’s town centre for shopping and recreational facilities as well as for Bedford’s wealth of private schooling offered by the Harpur Trust and others.
