Description

Immaculately presented, a rarely available three-bedroom detached home in the desirable cul-de-sac of Berkeley Close, Biggleswade. Just a 0.5 mile walk from the mainline train station, town centre, recreational grounds and open countryside.

Beautifully maintained you are welcomed into the home through a bright and spacious entrance hall with handy storage, this leads to a fitted kitchen with patio door to the driveway, WC and L-Shaped Living/Dining room with French doors opening to the rear.

On the first floor the principal bedroom is accompanied with an en-suite shower room, there are two further double bedrooms and a modern family bathroom.

Externally a good sized, westerly facing garden has been stunningly maintained to offer sociable patio and decked areas, mature beds and dual side gate access. There is also access to the single garage which has been adapted to create an office space and workshop with cleverly placed fitted storage and boarded eaves.

To the front a block paved driveway offers parking for multiple vehicles and overlooks the communal green.

The property further benefits from a fully insulated, boarded and carpeted loft with ladder and light and cavity wall installation. The combination boiler was replaced approximately 8 years ago alongside pipework and radiators.
