**DOUBLE FRONTED 3 BEDROOM DETACHED RENOVATION PROJECT** **CALL NOW TO VIEW**

Occupying a prominent position along the heart of Clapham's sought-after High Street, this attractive double-fronted 3 bedroom detached home presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking a character property with tremendous potential. Believed to date from around 1900, the property retains many original period features and now offers an exciting opportunity for comprehensive refurbishment, allowing the next owner to restore and modernise the home to their own individual taste and specification.

The accommodation is entered via a welcoming entrance hall with staircase rising to the first floor. Positioned either side of the hallway are two well-proportioned bay-fronted reception rooms, both enjoying an abundance of natural light and centred around attractive fireplaces, creating charming focal points and highlighting the property's period heritage. These versatile rooms offer excellent flexibility and could be utilised as formal sitting and dining rooms or adapted to suit modern family living.

To the rear of the property is the kitchen, together with a useful lean-to providing additional storage and access to the rear garden. A ground floor family bathroom completes the accommodation on this level.

The first floor provides three bedrooms, including two generous double bedrooms positioned to the front of the property, both retaining fireplaces which further enhance the character of the home. A third bedroom overlooks the rear, making an ideal child's bedroom, guest room or home office.

Externally, the property benefits from off-road parking to the side and a modest enclosed rear garden with a useful outside storage building, offering excellent storage or workshop potential.

Whilst requiring significant refurbishment throughout - including replacement or upgrading of the electrical installation, heating system, plumbing and roof - the property offers outstanding scope to create a superb family home. The generous proportions, detached nature and wealth of original character provide an excellent foundation for restoration, whilst subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations, there may also be potential for further extension or reconfiguration.

Renovation opportunities of this nature are becoming increasingly difficult to find, particularly within such a desirable village setting. This is a fantastic opportunity for builders, developers or buyers looking to create a distinctive period home in one of Bedford's most popular locations.

LOCATION:

Clapham is a thriving and well-served village located just north of Bedford, offering a wide range of amenities including local shops, eateries, a post office, and medical facilities. The area is also home to highly regarded local schools, making it popular with families.

Bedford’s town centre and mainline railway station are both just over a mile away, providing convenient links to London and surrounding areas. A wonderful opportunity to purchase a home in one of Bedford’s most desirable village locations - early viewing is highly recommended.
