A five-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage requiring some updating, located in the charming village of Silsoe, Bedfordshire.

Description
Originally formed from two separate cottages, this substantial five-bedroom cottage offers an abundance of space and character across two floors, with a wealth of architectural features including exposed timber beams, feature fireplaces, an original kitchen range, and leaded-light windows. The cottage does require some updating but has generally been well maintained.

The accommodation comprises an entrance porch, a well-appointed kitchen, living room, a separate sitting room, and a dining/family room. To the first floor are five well-proportioned bedrooms, all served by a spacious four-piece family bathroom. Outside, there is a mature rear garden extending to in excess of 100 ft in length. Adjoining the house is a paved terrace with steps rising to a split-level lawn bordered by mature planting and a variety of established trees. Further along the garden is an additional paved seating area together with a timber garden shed, with a concrete built outbuilding at the end of the garden, previously used as pigsties.
