A pretty three bedroom detached cottage, located north of Bedford in the village of Colmworth. An early eighteenth century property with a wealth of character features, lovely 85′ hedged garden and plenty of parking.
Sitting on the back of the plot, the grade two listed, former public house has two ground floor extensions and no upper chain.
The central entrance hall leads to the dining room at the front with large bread oven fireplace and wood panelling. There are wonderful ceiling beams at a reasonable height, and secondary glazing to the front.
At the end of the hallway a latch and brace door to the back hallway. There is storage under the stairs, a door to a long pantry, kitchen, wet room, back door and sitting room.
The sitting room is a generous room for a cottage with Crown Arch fireplace, a decent square proportion and secondary glazed window to the front.
The kitchen breakfast room is in the left corner of the cottage, with fitted storage cupboards and space for a table and chairs. There are two windows for plenty of natural light. Additional storage is in the joining pantry.
A wet room completes the ground floor. A good size later addition to the property with window and space for a bath if prefered.
On the first floor an attractive landing with exposed beams, storage cupboard and loft access (which could be converted to a bathroom with planning permission).
The main bedroom is a good surprise. A large room with tall ceiling, wall beams and secondary glazed window to the front.
There is a further double bedroom, with fireplace and good size single bedroom.
Outside there is a long driveway, with parking for four plus cars. The front garden is the main garden as it offers a high degree of privacy with mature trees, hedges, flowers, greenhouse and storage shed. A small back garden has a plastic oil tank and clothes line with hedge border.
Oil fired radiator heating | secondary glazing to the front | no upper chain
