Description

A spacious four/five double bedroom detached home on the well-regarded Fairfield Estate of Biggleswade, just a 0.9 mile walk from Biggleswade mainline train station.

Located down Beech Avenue, the property is well located for both primary and secondary schooling and a 0.7 mile walk from the market town square and High Street.

The property has been well maintained and much loved by the current owners with multiple reception spaces and a garage conversion to create a fifth ground floor bedroom with en-suite.

Entering the hallway, you are welcomed into cosy living room with double doors leading to the bright and spacious kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, patio doors then lead to a stunning conservatory, currently used as a playroom/snug with French doors to the rear.

To the front of the property is a handy utility room and the garage conversion, currently used as an office but with potential for a firth bedroom with an en-suite shower room.
On the first floor the principal bedroom boasts fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. There are three further double bedrooms, one of which has fitted storage and a modern family bathroom.

To the rear the partially walled garden offers a sociable patio space with raised vegetable patches and ample room for storage down either side of the property or in the wooden storage shed. There is side gate access to the front where a driveway offers parking for multiple vehicles.
