Why buy this home?

As you enter, there is a convenient WC to the right-hand side with a window providing natural light. Unlike most two-bedroom homes in Newton Leys, the kitchen is set apart from the living space, offering a more traditional and practical layout with clearly defined rooms.

The kitchen itself features stylish wood-effect units complemented by dark worktops, creating a smart and contemporary feel. With space for a fridge/freezer and washing machine, plus a gas hob and electric oven, it offers both practicality and functionality. Being set separately from the living area, it’s ideal for those who enjoy cooking without it impacting the main living space, helping to keep entertaining areas relaxed and free from everyday kitchen activity.

The main living space comfortably accommodates both a dining table and chairs, along with a sofa and coffee table, creating a well-balanced and versatile room. Being separate from the kitchen enhances the cosy feel and also provides the benefit of a useful under-stairs storage cupboard. French doors open onto the garden and are framed by two additional windows, allowing plenty of natural light to fill the room throughout the day.

The garden is a good size for a home of this type and has been recently enhanced with painted fencing. A large patio provides an excellent space for outdoor seating, making it perfect for summer BBQs and entertaining. A handy shed offers useful storage, while there is also convenient access to the parking area for added practicality.

The principal bedroom is an impressive size and is positioned to the rear of the house, enjoying views over the garden. It also benefits from its own en-suite, making it particularly convenient when friends or family stay as they can still enjoy use of the main bathroom.

The main bathroom features neutral tiling and a bath, with mosaic tiles surrounding it, making it ideal for families and perfectly suited for bathing younger children.

The second bedroom has been cleverly split into two single rooms, demonstrating the excellent proportions of the space. This makes it ideal for home working, a nursery, or flexible use as required. However, it can easily be reinstated back into one larger bedroom if preferred, with the current owners happy to arrange this.

Parking is provided by an allocated space as well as having ample communal parking also available.

More about the location.....

For a new development, Newton Leys is steeped in history. with some parts dating back as far as the Iron Age. However, it was more recently famous for brick-making from the late 19th Century, in the form of Newton Longville Brickworks. When the Brickworks closed in 1978, an old claypit was flooded to create Jubilee Lake, now more commonly known as Willow Lake, easily the jewel in Newton Leys' crown.

Newton Leys is a district that covers the southern tip of Bletchley and is split between the Borough of Milton Keynes and Aylesbury Vale. Conveniently located next to the A4146 and A5, it gives easy access to Milton Keynes, Leighton Buzzard and the M1.
