5 Bedroom Detached House, Bedford Road, Houghton Conquest, MK45

Five-Bedroom Home in Houghton Conquest

Set in a quiet position within the popular village of Houghton Conquest, this comprehensively renovated five-bedroom chalet-style home offers exceptional flexibility across two floors, with generous living space, a private south-west facing garden, and a useful detached outbuilding. Sitting on a generous plot extending to over 3,200 sq ft, the property is ideally suited to families seeking space, light, and adaptable living in a friendly community.

Ground Floor

A spacious reception room, extending to over 26 ft, offers a bright, comfortable space for family relaxation and entertaining. The renovated kitchen/breakfast room sits adjacent, providing a practical hub for everyday life, fitted with granite worktops, a Quooker boiling tap, and a breakfast bar/central island for casual dining.

Beyond the kitchen lies a versatile snug, ideal as an informal sitting area, playroom, or dining space, with bifold doors leading to the garden and internal access to the integral garage. A utility room keeps noisier appliances away from the main living areas, while a WC adds convenience.

A dedicated study with built-in desk and shelving offers an excellent home-working environment, while the adjacent family room provides additional flexible living space.

Completing the ground floor is a well-proportioned fifth bedroom with a bay window, and a spacious family bathroom. This arrangement lends itself perfectly to guest accommodation, multi-generational living, or use as a further reception room.

First Floor

On the first floor sits four further bedrooms and storage space throughout. Bedroom one is a generous double extending to over 23 ft, with access to eaves storage and a generous alcove.

Bedrooms two and three benefit from their own en-suite shower rooms, plus access to the large balcony which overlooks the rear garden and provides an elevated outdoor space for morning coffees and outdoor relaxation.

Bedroom four offers more fitted storage and flexible use for family, guests, or home working. Finally, an additional family shower room completes this level, adding further practicality.

Outdoor Living

The south-west facing garden enjoys sunshine throughout the day during the summer months, with a patio area ideal for relaxing on warmer days. Thoughtfully maintained and enhanced with additional planting and trees, the garden offers a peaceful setting for outdoor enjoyment.

A detached outbuilding offers two excellent storage spaces, with the potential for use as a workshop, summer house, or additional home office.

To the front, a generous garden and ample driveway provide off-road parking for several vehicles, complemented by the integral garage.
