Hales Barn Road, Haverhill

THE VENDORS THOUGHTS "I have loved town houses for many years and was delighted when I secured this property 12 years ago".

What is it that initially attracted you to the property?

"Hales Barn Road was perfect to me for many reasons and was in a great location for daily travel to Cambridge for work, as well as to local airports when working overseas. It is also within easy reach of Bury St Edmunds and Newmarket via A14 + A11, and to Saffron Walden with its mainline trains to London. At the end of the commuting day, or returning from a business trip, having private parking at the rear of the house enables a stress free transition back home to relax"

The versatile nature of a Townhouse lends itself to many different lifestyles, and this property is no different with a spacious ground floor. The kitchen is a culinary haven with ample storage solutions, with integrated oven & hob, as well as space for other appliances. The ground floor WC provides a range of additional built in storage, a rare find in a modern home. However it was the versatility of the lounge that made a major impact on the owner...

"The lounge/dining room is a shared space which I use as one big dining and entertaining area, or as a more traditional living room. It lends itself well to both and leads out to a small low maintenance garden, which has been ideal particularly when working away"

"The garden may be small, however I have enjoyed creating a small herb area, planting pots with colourful flowers, and nurturing Clematis, Roses, Honeysuckle and Jasmine bushes. The garden is South West facing and on a warm summers evening I have enjoyed sitting outside with the perfume from the flowers and of course a nice glass of something"

The versatility of the home continues on the first floor, with two bedrooms & the family bathroom, but the owner has found many uses in their time in the property...

"When my daughter returned back home from University the first floor was effectively her own flat - two rooms and her own bathroom. Since then the first floor bedrooms have been used as a spare bedroom, a second living room, a yoga room and an office space to work from home when Covid19 hit"

Saving the best until last, the second floor is an incredible standalone bedroom suite with dressing area, build in wardrobes, & a generous ensuite shower room. Something that captured the heart of the current owner the moment the bedroom revealed itself...

"The top floor suite has always been a joy and always will be! - I never get tired of watching amazing sunsets over the fields and house tops out of the back window. There is plenty of storage space and room to add more if you wish."

What is nearby?

The property sits a short distance from Haverhill town centre, positioned on the Cambridge side of town with easy access to A1307, A11, M11 and A14.

"I have enjoyed living in Haverhill as it sits centrally to a number of towns and cities linked by the above roads. These include Cambridge, Newmarket, Saffron Walden, Bury St Edmunds and Colchester with many historic villages close by (Finchingfield, Lavenham, and Long Melford). A day out to the coast is also possible, it takes about 1.45 hours to travel to coastal towns such as Walton on the Naze, Felixstowe, Aldeburgh and Southwold. I have danced with a local ladies dance school, performing our annual show in Haverhill Arts Centre which is housed within a grade II listed building hosting live music, drama, dance and comedy. I also like to visit the 5-screen multiplex cinema complex and walking my dog with a pet friendly community in local parks, trails and countryside."

"In summary this is a home you can return to after a busy day at work, a fun day out, or trip away and shut the door into a comfortable, modern and low maintenance space, which has always felt safe and secure."
