About
Quietly, yet centrally located within Bedford's Conservation area this bay fronted period home offers surprisingly spacious and adaptable accommodation.
Occupying a sunny plot, the rear courtyard garden enjoys a predominantly west facing aspect and the south facing side elevation of the house brings much natural light into the space.
The ground floor is largely open plan with a 'front to back' living room, dining or breakfast room and a kitchen. There is also useful half height cellar.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC. Some cosmetic updating and improvement is required and the property is available with no onward chain.
Conveniently located for the town centre, the house is within a short walk of a range of amenities.
A selection of pubs, restaurants and independent cafes are close at hand with attractive river walks on Bedford's picturesque Embankment within a short stroll.
There is also the option to buy a single freehold garage in a nearby block by separate negotiation - price guide £20,000.
Council Tax Band: C EPC Rating: D The property enjoys exalted status amongst its immediate neighbours being the only home in The Grove with a two storey bay.
The property benefits from gas radiator heating and the windows have been replaced with uPVC double glazed units.
The sunny courtyard rear garden features a timber summerhouse and there is a secure pedestrian access from Grove Place.
The single garage lies to the north of the street in the car parking area adjoining Grove Apartments behind secure, remotely controlled gates.
