About
Occupying a pleasant cul-de-sac position within the ever-popular riverside village of Great Barford, this well-presented four bedroom semi-detached family home is offered to the market with the added benefit of no onward chain.
Having been thoughtfully extended and improved by the current owner, the property provides spacious and versatile accommodation, ideal for modern family living.
The accommodation is entered via a welcoming entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and access to all principal ground floor rooms.
Positioned to the side of the property, the front door opens into the hallway, with a convenient cloakroom located immediately to the left.
A particular highlight of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room, created following the garage conversion.
The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of cupboards and generous work surface space, while the dining area provides ample room for family meals and entertaining.
To the rear of the property, the spacious living room enjoys views over the garden and features a charming log-burning stove as its focal point, together with double doors opening onto the patio.
Beyond this is the superb dual-aspect family room, added as part of the rear extension, boasting a vaulted ceiling with skylights that flood the room with natural light, along with direct access to the rear garden.
The first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, providing flexible accommodation for growing families, served by a well-appointed four-piece family bathroom comprising a bath, separate shower cubicle, wash hand basin and WC.
Externally, the property benefits from a driveway to the front providing off-road parking for two vehicles.
The enclosed rear garden has been attractively landscaped over tiers and offers a combination of paved seating areas and lawn, creating an excellent space for outdoor entertaining and family enjoyment.
Two garden sheds provide useful external storage.
