Semi-detached house for sale in Honduras Gardens, Newton Leys, Milton Keynes MK3

Overview

Why buy this home?

If you're looking for a home to simply move your furniture into, this is the home for you.

There are so many things to love about this home, but the first thing you notice is the abundance of communal parking available. Facing a lake not only provides impressive views and ample natural light into the home, but it also means no homes opposite reducing the demand for parking significantly.

Townhouses have risen in popularity since Covid and the need for flexibility in the home. This townhouse offers the ability to have four bedrooms or an impressive top floor solely dedicated to the owner with a dressing room and home office. This means the home can grow as you do as a family, reducing the need to move as fast and saving on precious Stamp Duty costs.

The star attraction of this home is the beautiful kitchen/diner on the ground floor. Light and spacious, it's a wonderful entertaining area that backs onto the garden, making it ideal as we creep towards warmer weather and bbq season. All appliances are integrated, and the current owner has recently installed further storage to ensure your minimalist style isn't ruined by kitchen gadgets and crockery being on display. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say the garden is extremely generous for a newer home, and conjures memories of long gardens usually only found on more character homes. A patio is a great place to sit and capture the afternoon sun with the garden being west-facing. Hidden at the back of the garden is a storage shed, freeing up the lawn for little ones to play. However, with the green space opposite including the lake and multiple play parks, you may find adults are more likely to be able to claim this space as their own. Back inside, the downstairs is completed by a handy WC.

The first floor is home to the living room which sits over the driveway. It is a generous size and means you can comfortably fit the whole family when you inevitably retire to the first floor after dinner. First floor living rooms are popular with young families as it means an easy walk to the bathroom at bathtime, and then next door to bed. It also means this space remains your private space as guests will usually be entertained on the ground floor. The bathroom on this floor has an overhead shower, and the bedroom is a double making it ideal for an older child who wants their own space (and own bathroom). Strangely, you'll find one of your favourite spots in the house will be the landing, as it has a lovely picture window offering views of the lake.

Bathrooms are not in short supply in this home as the top floor also has a shower room for bedroom two and four to utilise, whilst the master bedroom has its own ensuite with double shower, meaning queues for the shower in the morning are a thing of the past.

Dedicated parking is provided in the form of a driveway for two/three cars, although as previously mentioned, communal parking is not in short supply.

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. You have a choice of either Bletchley or Leighton Buzzard Train Stations which both offer services directly into London Euston.

Newton Leys Primary School opened in 2016 and accepts children from age 3 (nursery) to age 11 (Year 6). Many parents take advantage of the Grammar Schools in Aylesbury for Secondary education being only approximately 11 miles away.

In 2017 Newton Leys District Centre opened providing local conveniences such as a Costa, Chinese Takeaway, Fish and Chip Shop, Dry Cleaners, Hair Salon and a 8000 sq ft Asda. At the end of April 2019 the Turing Key pub opened its doors and has already cemented itself as the heart of the community. It is in good company as there also numerous village pubs within a few miles such as The Three Locks at Stoke Hammond, The Crooked Billet at Newton Longville and The Betsey Wynne at Swanbourne.
