Description

Introducing a rare investment opportunity in the heart of Ampthill: the former Burgess Lemonade Factory. This substantial detached property, once home to the local James Burgess Mineral Water Works, offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern renovation potential. Nestled away from the main thoroughfare, this property provides ample privacy alongside generous parking and garden space to both the side and rear. The interior features a well-proportioned layout that allows for flexible living arrangements. The ground floor presents an inviting entrance hall leading to a spacious kitchen/dining area with outdoor access to the garden, complemented by a convenient pantry cupboard. A versatile bedroom on this level includes an en-suite shower room, making it ideal for use as either a family bedroom or a home office. Off the kitchen, you will find a utility room with side access, enhancing functionality. The sitting room is filled with natural light thanks to its large rear window overlooking the garden and boasts a charming feature fireplace which could be enhanced with a window seat for added appeal. Additional rooms include a study and ample storage under the stairs. On the upper floor, there are three further bedrooms alongside a generously sized family bathroom featuring both bath and separate shower facilities. The main bedroom is dual-aspect and spacious, offering potential for an adjoining en-suite bathroom if desired. A standout feature of this property is its extensive outbuilding that comprises a car port, workshops, and an annex — all of which hold significant scope for conversion into extra living quarters, creative studio spaces, or recreational areas like a gym. With appropriate planning permissions, there’s also an opportunity to expand or introduce new structures within the garden space. This exceptional property represents not only historical significance but also unmatched flexibility in usage and design potential in one of Ampthill's most desirable central locations.
