8, High Street, Bedford, MK44 1EY

Lane & Holmes are delighted to present this charming and characterful end-of-terrace cottage, peacefully positioned on High Street in the picturesque village of Souldrop.

Dating from 1865 and Grade II listed, this unique Victorian home offers period features combined with spacious and well-appointed accommodation arranged over two floors.

On the ground floor, the welcoming kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of integrated appliances, including an oven and hob, under-counter fridge and slimline dishwasher.

The generous living room benefits from large windows providing an abundance of natural light, together with a feature log burner.

A well-appointed bathroom completes the ground floor, featuring a bath with shower over and attractive floor-to-ceiling tiling.

The original staircase rises to a central first-floor landing, providing access to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each benefiting from particularly impressive high ceilings.

A separate WC adds further convenience and completes the upstairs accommodation. Outside, the property enjoys a surprisingly generous plot, with a wrap-around garden extending to the front and sides.

Mainly laid to lawn, the garden is enhanced by mature trees, established hedging and a variety of foliage, providing an attractive and private setting with areas of sunshine throughout the day.

Beyond the main garden is a further section of land currently used as an allotment, offering excellent potential for keen gardeners.

There is a right of way to the rear for the neighbouring properties for access to their outbuildings.

A garage with power is currently utilised as a workshop, while an additional storage area benefits from electricity, plumbing and drainage. Off-road parking is also available for two vehicles.

There is also a shepherd’s hut, which has been converted to a home office, complete with power and light. This is available, subject to negotiation.

Further benefits include air source heating, double-glazed windows to the ground floor and secondary glazing to the first floor.

Souldrop is a peaceful and attractive village surrounded by open countryside, whilst remaining within easy reach of everyday amenities.

The village itself has a public house, with nearby Sharnbrook providing a wider selection of shops, services and facilities.

Excellent road connections are available via the A6, providing convenient access towards Bedford and Northamptonshire, with Rushden also within easy reach.
