Ivel Road, Shefford, SG17 5LB

CHAIN FREE This beautifully presented extended 1850s cottage offers two generous double bedrooms, charming original features and a warm, characterful feel throughout.

Set just a short stroll from Shefford High Street, the property perfectly blends period style with modern comfort, and enjoys a private west-facing, non-overlooked garden ideal for alfresco dining.

There is also potential to create off-road parking at the front, subject to the relevant permissions.

The original cottage opens into a welcoming reception room featuring an exposed brick fireplace, log burner, quarry tiles under the carpet and ceiling beams.

Currently used as a dining room, the space works equally well as a cosy snug or second reception room.

Moving through the property, the bright kitchen/breakfast room offers plenty of natural light, space for a dining table or island, an original brick fire surround, and practical storage and workspace under the stairs.

A further extension houses additional kitchen units, appliance space and a door to the garden.

A later double-storey extension provides a spacious dual-aspect lounge with French doors leading out to the private rear garden, creating a lovely flow for everyday living and entertaining.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two generous double bedrooms; the master enjoys a dual aspect with views to both the front and the rear.

Storage is excellent, with two loft spaces, including a main loft that is fully boarded.

Outside, the cottage features a beautifully established front garden with mature shrubs and a secluded area for bin storage.

A path leads around to the private west-facing rear garden, which has been enhanced with new fencing and decking, making it low maintenance and perfect for outdoor dining.

With stone paving, flowering trees, mature plants, wisteria, an apple tree and a thriving grapevine, the garden has a wonderfully Mediterranean feel.

Just outside the back door, a useful storage alcove provides ideal space for logs, tools or outdoor essentials.

Located in Shefford, a historic medieval market town, the cottage is just moments from shops, cafés, restaurants and excellent schools.

The area is known for its friendly community and welcoming neighbours, as well as easy access to countryside walks, Arlesey mainline station and both the A1 and M1 road links.

This charming, character-filled and chain-free cottage is ready to move into and enjoy.
