Booth Place, Dunstable, Bedfordshire

Why buy this home?

Whether you are a first-time buyer or someone looking to downsize to a quiet life in a village, this home could be what you are looking for.

Entering through the front door, there is a small entrance porch where you can remove your shoes. It also means that the front door does not open straight into the property, keeping the house warmer in the cooler months.

Upon entering the living room, you can’t help but be drawn to the character that this property offers. It has exposed floorboards, a timber door with a drop latch handle, a sash window, dado railing, and a fantastic fireplace housing a working wood burning stove, everything you would expect from a property of this age. There is enough space to fit in a three-seater sofa, and an armchair tucked in the corner of the room creates a perfect spot for reading. However, if you did not need the additional armchair, you could have a small table in this space.

Leading on from the living room is the kitchen, which is on the smaller side but nevertheless still perfectly formed. There is a fitted oven with an electric hob plus space for a washing machine and a fridge/freezer under the stairs. The shed in the garden has power to it and the current owners have a tumble dryer in there but it could be used for another fridge/freezer if required.

The back door from the kitchen leads you out to a private, courtyard garden which is a sun trap during the warmer months. It is paved so low maintenance and has enough space for some pots to add some colour.

Upstairs, the bedroom is a comfortable size and fits a double bed. There is an area under the stairs where you could add a bespoke fitted wardrobe and the room still has space for a large set of drawers – what more do you need from a bedroom.

The bathroom is fitted with a three piece, white suite and there is storage over the stairs and a vanity unit under the sink.

A big selling feature of this home is that the loft has been converted into an additional room. Although it cannot be formally classed as a bedroom, there is space in here to put a mattress should any guests be staying. The current owners use this space as a study which serves that purpose perfectly.

There is on street parking available.
