M&M Properties are pleased to offer this three bedroom detached home occupying a corner plot on Hydrus Drive, within the Planets estate in Leighton Buzzard. Combining well-proportioned accommodation with a large rear garden, a garage and parking to both the front and rear, the property offers an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking space both inside and out. The generous plot also provides potential for future extension and development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

More About The Location - Hydrus Drive is situated within the established Planets estate in Leighton Buzzard. The town offers a range of shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants, alongside its historic town centre and regular market. Parks and walks along the Grand Union Canal provide further opportunities to enjoy the surrounding area.

For commuters, Leighton Buzzard railway station provides direct services to London Euston and Milton Keynes. Road connections include the A4146 and A505, with onward links to the A5 and M1, providing routes towards neighbouring towns and the wider motorway network.

Accommodation - The front door opens into an entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and a useful downstairs cloakroom fitted with a toilet and wash basin.

Leading off the hallway is a spacious lounge/diner measuring approximately 7.58 metres in length. A bay window to the front and double doors opening onto the rear garden bring natural light into either end of the room, while the layout provides space for both seating and a dining table. The garden access makes this a practical setting for everyday family life and entertaining.

The kitchen sits at the rear of the house, with access from both the hallway and the dining end of the reception room. A window overlooks the rear garden, while an external side door provides a further route outside.

Upstairs, the landing leads to three bedrooms, a family bathroom and a useful storage cupboard. The main bedroom overlooks the front, while the second double bedroom is positioned at the rear. The third bedroom offers flexibility as a child’s room, guest room or home office. Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom, with a bath, wash basin and toilet.

Exterior & Gardens - The large rear garden is a particular feature of the property, complementing its corner plot position. Predominantly laid to lawn with a paved patio adjoining the house, it offers plenty of space for outdoor seating, dining and recreation, together with scope for buyers to introduce their own planting and landscaping.

Brick boundary walls and timber fencing enclose the garden, with a pedestrian door providing access to the garage at the far end. A rear gate offers a further route out of the garden. The plot also presents potential to extend or develop the property, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

Parking - The property benefits from driveway parking at the front, together with an additional parking space in front of the garage to the rear. The garage can also be accessed directly from the rear garden.
