Occupying a prime position in the very heart of Ampthill, this exceptional Grade II listed cottage, believed to date back to approximately 1706, is a truly rare opportunity to acquire a home rich in history, charm, and character. Whilst still showcasing a modern structure including the kitchen, back dining, study and the annex. Just a stone’s throw from the town’s vibrant community, boutique independent shops, pubs, and restaurants, the property perfectly combines period living with modern convenience.

Bursting with original features throughout, the home showcases beautiful exposed beams, characterful fireplace, and an abundance of charm synonymous with properties of this era. The main house offers two generous reception rooms, creating flexible and inviting living spaces ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.

The re-fitted kitchen, with granite surface, has been thoughtfully designed to blend modern style with the cottage’s historic character, while the re-fitted bathroom features both a bath and separate shower.

To the rear, a highly versatile additional, high ceiling space presents exciting potential for an annexe, guest suite, rental revenue or home office, complete with its own newly fitted bathroom, an excellent bonus for modern family living or those working from home.

Outside, the mature rear garden is a true private sanctuary. Filled with wild flowers and established planting, it offers a wonderfully peaceful setting to unwind and enjoy long summer evenings. The garden also benefits from access via Baker Street, providing convenient on-street parking access.

A unique and enchanting home in one of Bedfordshire’s most desirable market towns, offering timeless character, versatile accommodation, and an idyllic lifestyle setting.

Agent Note: Available are bespoke commissioned architecture plans with planning permission granted, for a glass steel engineered, patio connection to the rear annex.
