Church Street, Langford, Bedfordshire, SG18

Dating back to the 1800's this rarely available Grade II listed three bedroom semi detached cottage was originally part of a larger farm house which occupied the surrounding land before being converted into two stylish dwellings. It now provides beautiful, flexible internal accommodation finished to an exceptionally high standard and nestles close to the village church and tree lined playing fields/park. It also has existing planning permission granted for a single storey extension to the rear of the home.

Approach is onto a shingle driveway which provides ample parking for several vehicles and offers a degree of privacy from mature bushes and hedging which run along the front perimeter boundary. Initially you're greeted by a generous porch which wraps around the front and side of the home in an L-shaped fashion and has been laid with an attractive mosaic flooring. A separate door opens into the kitchen/breakfast room which measures over 20ft in length and has been fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units with solid Quartz work surfaces over. Space for several free standing appliances has been created including a Range style cooker (potentially available by separate negotiation), upright fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Attractive herringbone flooring has been laid and recessed ceiling spotlights added. Beyond here is the principal reception room, the lounge/diner, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case over 27ft in length with a stunning fireplace creating a real focal point to the room. Given the dimensions furniture placement is particularly flexible in the seating area, whilst the dining side provides the perfect family/sociable area. Original quarry tiles sit underfoot whilst benefiting from a wonderful dual aspect orientation flooding the room with an abundance of natural daylight. To the far side an inner hall has a staircase leading to the first floor accommodation, in addition to a shower room beyond that. This has been fitted with a two piece suite comprising of a shower enclosure and wash hand basin. The look is finished by modern splashback tiling, and heated towel rail. Completing this level is the second reception room, the conservatory, which sits directly off the kitchen and enjoys views down the garden. It has been constructed with a combination of brick and double glazing with a vaulted polycarbonate roof and has a tiled floor and French doors opening into the garden itself.

Moving upstairs the first-floor landing provides access to all the accommodation which is split over two levels. The master bedroom nestles to the front of the home with windows to both the side and front aspects. It also benefits from the convenience of its own en-suite fitted with a four-piece suite comprising of a free-standing roll top bath, separate large shower, low level wc and wash hand basin mounted onto a vanity plinth. It has beautiful wide floorboards underfoot, high height wall panelling and obscure window. Of the remaining two bedrooms, one occupies the front elevation, whilst the other sits to
the rear, they are both of generous double proportions and have been immaculately decorated. They are serviced by a separate WC which comprises of a concealed cistern and corner wash hand basin. The look is finished with stylish wallpaper and modern tiled splashbacks.

Externally the rear garden is sizable and has been laid predominately to lawn with a border to one side which has been well stocked with an abundance of established plants, shrubs and bushes. Positioned against the rear of the home is a generous patio area making the ideal relaxing/entertaining space. To the far end of the garden is a triple garage/storage barn accessed via a single up and over door and which could, in our opinion, be converted into a hobbies room or separate annexe (subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions/consents). A further individual storage barn measuring over 16ft completes the external space, whilst the boundary is enclosed by timber fencing with gated side access.

Langford itself offers a wealth of amenities locally including convenience stores and public houses as well as several open green spaces, most notably the King George V playing field which also houses the village hall within the grounds. The Langford Village Academy is the local lower school catering for children from the ages of four to nine and boasts a good OFSTED rating. Commuter wise road links from the A1 lie nearby, whilst the town of Biggleswade is less than a mile away and has a train station offering rail links into the capital within approximately 40 minutes.
