About this home

Enjoying attractive riverside views in the heart of Bedford, this well-presented one-bedroom second-floor apartment is situated within Plough House, a modern residential apartment building constructed in 2020. Offering contemporary living in a highly convenient location.

The accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hall, a spacious open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area with sliding patio doors opening onto a Juliet balcony overlooking the Great River Ouse and surrounding greenery, a generously proportioned double bedroom and a modern bathroom. Externally, the development benefits from secure gated access to an allocated underground parking space and a communal patio area surrounding the building.

Ideally positioned within walking distance of Bedford town centre, Bedford Hospital and the railway station, the apartment would make an excellent first-time purchase or investment opportunity. The town centre can be reached within approximately 10 minutes on foot via the picturesque Embankment, providing a pleasant riverside walk into town. Bedford offers an excellent selection of shops, bars and restaurants, alongside convenient transport links, with regular train services to Luton in approximately 20 minutes and London St Pancras in under 40 minutes. Road connections via the A428, A421 and M1 further enhance the appeal of this conveniently located property.
