Property description
Roxton is a small village, mentioned in the Doomsday Book, in the heart of rural Bedfordshire. The village has much to recommend it, there's a village hall where the W.I. and local History Society meet, The Royal Oak public house, with a post office attached, Roxton Lower School which achieves good Ofsted reports and close to the very popular Roxton Garden Centre. There are two churches, one of which has a completely unique thatched roof and, when you need to travel further afield, the A1 is very accessible, with London less than an hour away. Also nearby are Bedford town and just over the border in Cambridgeshire is the market town of St Neots. Park View is a lovely four-bedroomed detached property built in the 1980's. It is a generous house with an enchanting garden, front and back, that the current owners have imaginatively created over the fifteen years they have lived there. Opposite the house is a large playing field, complete with pavilion, where the occasional cricket match is played and the back of the house, beyond the garden, is beautiful open pasture land. The front door leads to a surprisingly roomy hall with doorways to all downstairs reception rooms and kitchen and a dog-leg staircase leading to an equally substantial upstairs landing. The well-balanced kitchen has good quality light wood units and cream worktops and a smart range style electric cooker, perfect for the serious cook. Just off the kitchen is a sizeable utility room, as big as many kitchens I have seen.The dining room is elegant and overlooks the lovely back garden.The sitting room is big and beautiful with a wonderful fire-place. There's a wide bow window overlooking the front garden and at the other end a sliding glazed double-door leads to an inviting conservatory, perfect for afternoon tea. Double toffee-shop glazed doors create a rather grand entrance and the airy space would suit any style, from period charm to minimalist chic. The four bedrooms upstairs are all doubles and two of them have excellent double door inbuilt cupboards. One bedroom has been extended in to the garage roof space and a fantastic home office is the result. It extends the entire width across the garage and has two large Velux windows built in to the roof. This extra space is currently used as an office but could easily become a useful workroom or amazing playroom.The large master bedroom is gorgeous and incorporates a spacious en-suite shower room. The light pouring in from the window gave the bedroom a surreal glow from the early evening sun, I loved it.The décor is immaculate and the current owners have taken great pride in maintaining their home to a high standard
