About this home

**SHARE FOR FREEHOLD** - Situated within the iconic Broad Reach building and set along the embankment of Bedford's River Great Ouse. An ideal position to enjoy the picturesque views whilst also benefitting from all of the town centre and Castle Quarter amenities.

This stylish apartment is set over the first and second floors of the building, offering spacious and well presented accommodation. Accessed via a main communal entrance on the ground floor, the second floor entrance door opens into a hallway accessing a family bathroom, complete with contemporary tiling and fittings. This floor also features a comfortable double bedroom. An internal staircase leads down to the lower level and into an open-plan living space which features a dining area and a spacious living room. Large full-height windows flood the space with natural light and offer lovely views of The Embankment.

On this floor you'll also find another double bedroom with its own en-suite shower room. Additional benefits of the property include an intercom entry system, double glazed windows, and electric heating. The apartment is being sold with part ownership of the freehold, adding an extra level of appeal for prospective buyers.

The property is situated on The Embankment, a conservation area with landscaped gardens overlooking the River Great Ouse. It is just a few minutes' walk from Russell Park and Bedford town centre. Bedford railway station, with services to London St. Pancras in 43 minutes, is approximately 1 mile away and the independent Harpur Trust Schools are also in Bedford.
