Why Buy This Home? The Alton is already one of Taylor Wimpey’s most popular three bedroom house styles, but this one has been completely transformed. If you are looking for a home that offers something a little different, with plenty of flexibility for young families or those with older children wanting their own space, this could be the one. The moment you step inside, it is clear this is far from your typical three bedroom home. The original layout has been cleverly reworked, with the kitchen repositioned to create an impressive open plan living space that flows beautifully into the living room and conservatory. The kitchen is finished with high gloss units and wood effect worktops, which contrast perfectly against the light flooring. Integrated appliances include a washing machine, dishwasher, fridge freezer and oven, alongside a gas hob. There is plenty of storage and worktop space, making it a kitchen that looks great but also works brilliantly for busy family life. What really makes this room special is the amount of space on offer. Although completely open plan, each area still feels like it has its own purpose. The living area is perfect for curling up together to watch a film, entertaining friends or simply putting your feet up after a long week. The built in media wall creates a real focal point, with useful storage, space for the television and an electric fireplace underneath. It brings the whole room together and gives it that cosy, modern feel. The conservatory takes the downstairs space to another level. With its all year round roof, this is not just a room you will use during the summer months. The current owners have created a fantastic dining area, but it could work just as well as a playroom, home office, second sitting room or even a separate space for older children. The garden is just the right size if you’re not much of a gardener, with plenty of room for outdoor seating to enjoy a morning coffee or a barbecue with friends. The log cabin adds extra flexibility, whether you need a home office or somewhere to work out, as it’s currently used as a gym. On the first floor, the rear bedroom stretches across the full width of the house, giving you plenty of options. Two children could comfortably share, or one lucky teenager could have room for a bed, desk and somewhere to relax. The third bedroom is generously sized too, making it a useful guest room or home office if you don’t need all three bedrooms. Both rooms are served by the family bathroom, where textured tiles give it a stylish finish. A shower over the bath, glass screen and downlights complete the space. The main bedroom is where this home really comes into its own. Occupying the entire top floor, it feels like your own retreat, with room for a super king-size bed, bedside tables and a chest of drawers. Triple fitted wardrobes provide plenty of storage, with a full-length mirrored door adding a practical finishing touch. The ensuite completes the room, with a double shower cubicle, waterfall shower head and grey tiling that ties in with the family bathroom. 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 and Birmingham.
