Fantastic opportunity for CASH BUYERS ONLY, character property with huge potential, large plot , popular village village location

Indigo Residential are delighted to offer for sale this charming Grade II Listed period property, beautifully positioned along the historic Watling Street in the desirable village of Hockliffe, just a short distance from Leighton Buzzard. This unique home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property rich in history, perfectly blended with access to modern-day conveniences.

Hockliffe is a picturesque village steeped in history, dating back to medieval times, and is surrounded by beautiful countryside ideal for walking and cycling. The village itself is home to the historic St Dunstan's Church, adding to its charm and character, while nearby Leighton Buzzard offers a wider range of amenities, schooling and leisure facilities.

The property itself is in need of renovation, offering an exciting opportunity for buyers to create a truly bespoke home tailored to their own tastes and requirements. Internally, the accommodation is full of character, featuring cosy log burners that create a warm and inviting atmosphere, ideal for both relaxing evenings and entertaining. The versatile layout offers multiple reception spaces, including the potential for a kitchen/breakfast room and a snug-style living area to suit modern family living. A large conservatory extends from the kitchen area, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living while providing views over the expansive garden. There is also an additional reception room with a fourth bedroom or office space above, offering flexibility for home working or guest accommodation.

To the first floor, there are three further well-proportioned bedrooms along with a family bathroom.

One of the most outstanding features of this home is its exceptionally large rear garden. This impressive outdoor space offers enormous potential for landscaping, entertaining, or simply enjoying a peaceful and private setting. Whether for families, keen gardeners or those who enjoy outdoor living, the garden provides a rare and valuable addition. There is also a substantial garden room which could be enhanced to create an additional entertaining or leisure space.

Further benefits include a double garage with access to both the front and rear, as well as excellent transport links nearby, making the property well suited for commuters and those wishing to explore the surrounding areas.

This characterful detached home represents far more than just a property; it is a lifestyle opportunity. Combining period charm, generous space and huge potential, it stands as a truly unique offering within a highly desirable village location.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the charm, scale and potential this remarkable home has to offer.
