38 Church Street has been my husbands cherished home for 20 years, and we have shared it together for the past 11 years. Originally, my husband lived next door, and when the adjoining property became available, he seized the opportunity to purchase it. He then knocked through to create one larger, unified home. He was captivated by the character of the thatched roof and the peaceful ambiance that surrounds the property.During our time here, we have lovingly modernised the home and added an annex. We also took great care in landscaping the garden, transforming it into a serene and beautiful space.Now that our children have grown and moved out, we find ourselves only using a few roomsprimarily one side of the houseas it has become too large for just the two of us. However, we still adore the front lounge, with its charming wood burner that serves as a centrepiece, adding warmth and character to the room.The property is ideal for entertaining, with one lounge opening into the dining room, which then flows seamlessly into the second front room. The layout allows for a wonderful balance of togetherness and spaceyou can be in three separate rooms yet still feel connected. We have always enjoyed hosting Christmas here, with plenty of space for everyone to stay. The house is spacious, yet it retains a cosy, unified atmosphere.The garden is truly a sanctuarybeautiful, quiet, and secluded, attracting a variety of wildlife including squirrels and birds. Its a large, sun-soaked space with ample parking and features a fish pond with koi carp. The sunsets here are particularly stunning, and weve spent countless evenings on the expansive patio, enjoying the tranquil surroundings until late into the night. The garden is not overlooked, offering complete privacy.We are fortunate to be part of a close-knit community with friendly neighbours nearby. Tempsford offers a range of activities, including a childrens football team, Jubilee fetes, and various village hall events. There is always something to do, from family fun days to the churchs Knit and Natter gatherings.We are also excited about the reopening of the village pub, which has been closed for some time. From the front of the house, we have lovely views of the church where we were marrieda place that holds special memories for us. Hearing the church bells ring and seeing it beautifully lit at night is a true delight.As we prepare to downsize, we know we will deeply miss the quiet and serenity of this home. 38 Church Street has been perfect for us, and we have created countless wonderful memories here. We hope that another family will find the same joy and happiness that we have experienced.Village Information
