Description

Situated on a spacious plot within the sought-after Brooklands development of Leighton Buzzard, this extended three-bedroom semi-detached home offers an excellent canvas for renovation and modernisation. Having been owned by the same family for many years, the property is well-maintained yet ripe for updating to fit contemporary standards and personal tastes. Boasting over 1,000 square feet of living space, there is significant potential to enhance or reconfigure the layout to better suit your needs. The sizeable rear garden not only provides a private outdoor area but also presents opportunities for extensions or redevelopment with the appropriate planning permissions in place. This property is free from chain complications, allowing for a smoother purchase process. The Brooklands development is ideal for families, featuring convenient access to schools and community amenities. Leighton Buzzard itself is a charming market town that blends historical character with modern conveniences such as a vibrant town centre rich in shops and cafes. The proximity to parks and scenic walks along the Grand Union Canal enhances its appeal. Transport links are robust; with quick access to the M1 motorway and regular train services directly into London Euston and King's Cross taking roughly 30 minutes. Internally, the house comprises an inviting entrance hallway leading to various spaces including a central reception room suitable for multiple uses, a comfortable living room at the front, and an extended kitchen/dining area at the rear that opens out onto the garden. Completing the ground floor is a family bathroom, while upstairs lies three generously sized bedrooms—two doubles and one smaller which could serve as a home office or nursery. Externally, off-road parking facilities are ample with space for two to three vehicles behind secure gates. A single garage offers additional utility or storage options. Overall, this property combines significant renovation potential with a desirable location.
