Back Street, Clophill, Bedfordshire, MK45

This individually designed four bedroom detached home was constructed approximately 50 years ago and offers a wealth of spacious, interchangeable accommodation set over several split levels.

Approach to the property is via an ample hard standing driveway which allows parking for numerous vehicles, whilst a well tended frontage provides a good sized lawn, greenery and established tree. Once inside you’re immediately greeted by the entrance porch which leads into the hallway and is flanked to either side by bedrooms. These are both of double proportions and one has the convenience of its own en-suite comprising of a shower enclosure, low level wc and a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit. This level also benefits from a separate bathroom which incorporates a panelled bath with tap fed shower attachment and concertina screen positioned over, cistern concealed wc and wash hand basin. Access is also provided to the cellar which offers ideal storage or the possibility of being utilised as further reception space if necessary. Back in the hallway several stairs lead up to a continuation of the hall, with sliding patio doors opening into the garden and to the opposite side a study which makes the perfect work from home space, whilst nestled to the rear is the principal reception room, the living room, which commands impressive dimensions, in this case 20’8ft by 15’9ft making for flexible furniture placement. An imposing brick fireplace creates a real focal point to the room and two sets of patio doors lead into the garden, ensuring the room is flooded with an abundance of natural daylight. A further flight of stairs leads to additional accommodation, which incorporates another double bedroom that has windows to the rear and side elevations taking in the beautiful garden. Beyond here a separate dining room comfortably allows for a table and chairs, creating a real family/sociable area as well as access into the kitchen. This has been fitted with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units with darker, contrasting work surfaces over. Several integrated appliances have been woven into the design including a four ring gas hob, stainless steel extractor hood and double oven, whilst space for additional free standing appliances has been afforded such as dishwasher, fridge and upright fridge/freezer. Further informal seating and storage capacity has been created from a useful breakfast bar, and wonderful elevated views can be enjoyed from a dual aspect orientation. Completing this level is a separate utility room which has base units with work tops over and allows space for a washing machine below. Stairs lead to a further landing area which could, conceivably, be used as a study area or quiet reading space, beyond which is the master bedroom. This is a superb room with a beautiful shaped ceiling and two banks of built in wardrobes, in addition to a window and sliding patio doors overlooking the rear and opening onto a balcony. This offers a tranquil space to take in the stunning garden and is the perfect wind down area to enjoy a glass of wine or gin and tonic in the evening. It also benefits from the convenience of its own en-suite which comprises of a shower enclosure, low level wc and pedestal wash hand basin, whilst modern tiling adorns the splashback areas.

Externally the rear garden has been beautifully designed, executed and tended with a good sized patio area, ideal for relaxing or entertaining, whilst steps lead to a raised lawn which is surrounded by an array of established plants, shrubs and bushes. A mature tree nestles within the centre of the garden and a useful shed and brick built barn provide additional storage.
