A truly rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a detached family home set within approximately 1.63 acres of beautiful grounds, tucked away at the end of a quiet country lane in one of Bedfordshire's most sought-after villages. Offering outstanding potential and an idyllic rural lifestyle, this is a property that seldom comes to the market.

Designed and built by the same family who still own it today, the story of this unique home began when they purchased the land in 1954 before constructing the property in 1956. Having remained in the family's ownership ever since, this is a genuine once-in-a-generation opportunity to acquire a home with an exceptional history and tremendous future potential.

Over the years the grounds have been used to keep horses and livestock, while also providing ample space for growing your own produce, creating a smallholding or simply enjoying the privacy and freedom that such a generous plot affords. Subject to the necessary planning consents, there is also excellent scope to extend and further enhance the property to create a truly outstanding country residence.

The accommodation is both spacious and versatile, featuring two generous first-floor double bedrooms with a first-floor WC, together with a ground-floor double bedroom served by a recently refitted shower room, making the home ideal for multi-generational living or those seeking single-level accommodation. Further accommodation includes a separate kitchen and a spacious lounge/dining room overlooking the surrounding grounds.

The property has also benefited from the addition of solar panels, helping to improve energy efficiency while reducing running costs.

Combining a substantial plot, an enviable village location, fascinating history and outstanding potential, this exceptional home offers a lifestyle opportunity that is rarely available. Whether you're dreaming of keeping animals, creating your own smallholding or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of country living, this is a property that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Please note the owner informs us contrary to what is said on the video, there is not power to the outbuilding.

Sundon is a beautiful village benefiting from useful amenities locally including a public house as well as offering convenient bus routes, and open green spaces.

For the keen rambler and walker, countryside sits directly on your doorstep providing unrivalled walks and nature trails locally.
