Description

We are delighted to present this beautifully maintained three bedroom home, perfectly positioned for easy access to local shops, scenic walking trails, and Bedford’s southern bypass.

Upon entering, you're welcomed by a bright entrance hall with a handy cloakroom. The generous open-plan living and dining area extends the full length of the home, offering a light-filled space perfect for both daily living and entertaining, and flows effortlessly into the conservatory, which provides lovely garden views and direct access outside.

To the rear, the stylishly upgraded kitchen is fitted with high-quality units and offers a generous worktop space, complemented by a large window with lovely views of the mature rear garden.

Upstairs, you’ll find three well-proportioned bedrooms, two doubles and a larger than average single providing flexible space for families or guests. The modern family bathroom has been tastefully refurbished to a high standard.

Outside, the west-facing garden is a real retreat, bordered by mature shrubs, trees, and bushes. It offers a variety of areas to relax or dine al fresco. To the front, a large driveway provides off-road parking for at least three vehicles, along with a single garage for additional storage or secure parking.

Further benefits include PVCu double glazed windows, gas central heating and the property is being offered with no upward chain.

Bury Walk is located just off Goldington Road with its junction with Riverfield Drive very well placed for the local Tesco and Waitrose supermarkets and other retail opportunities plus a medical centre and dentist.

There is also convenient access to riverside walks, Bedford’s town centre and its offering of retail and recreational opportunities, Bedford’s southern bypass and also Bedford’s mainline railway station offering fast and frequent services to the capital and beyond.
