    About this property

    • An exceptional five bedroom Grade II Listed barn conversion, quietly positioned at the end of a no through lane in Southcott Village.

Highlights include a striking reception/games room with handcrafted oak staircase, a superb kitchen/breakfast room and a magnificent vaulted sitting room with exposed beams and garden access. Bedrooms are arranged over the upper floors, including a bright principal suite and two further bathrooms. The landscaped rear garden, two car ports and courtyard setting complete the picture. Just 0.4 miles from Leighton Buzzard station with a 30 minute journey time direct to London Euston, this unique home combines rural tranquillity with excellent London connections.
