High Street, Linton, CB21

In the charming village of Linton, on its lively High Street, stands a detached six-bedroom house that has been thoughtfully updated, offering a blend of modern comfort and classic character. Offered free-of-chain, this unique home was previously a public house in the village, before being converted to a residential dwelling. Spread across three well-proportioned floors, this home provides ample space, making it an ideal choice for a family looking for both practicality and a central location.

A notable feature of the property is the generous off-street parking, with the added benefit of a double entrance to the driveway, making access convenient and flexible. To the rear of the house, the secluded garden offers a peaceful retreat, with plenty of room for both relaxation and outdoor gatherings. A paved terrace connects to the kitchen, where natural light fills the room and invites a seamless connection between inside and out.

Upon entering, the hallway immediately conveys a sense of space and warmth. The staircase leads to the first floor, where a large window at the half-landing brings in natural light, brightening the space.

The kitchen/diner is a wonderful place for family meals and gatherings. It is fitted with quality units, offering plenty of counter space for all your cooking needs. Two sets of French doors open directly onto the terrace, allowing light to flood the room and providing a perfect view of the garden. Additionally, there is approved planning permission held in perpetuity for the extension and reconfiguration of the kitchen and utility room, giving the new owner the opportunity to expand and further enhance this already practical space. The utility room, adjacent to the kitchen, provides ample storage and additional space for everyday tasks.

The sitting room and dining room, both well-sized and inviting, provide quiet spaces for reading or entertaining. The living room, with its three large windows overlooking the High Street, makes an impressive first impression. The oak floors and charming fireplace add warmth and character, while a door leads to a small study, an ideal space for work or quiet contemplation.

On the ground floor, a cloakroom offers convenience, with a WC and washbasin, while a frosted-glass window ensures privacy.

Downstairs, the cellar offers a flexible space that could be adapted to suit a variety of needs, whether as a home cinema, gym, or simply for extra storage. Its generous ceiling height makes it a versatile area, ready to be transformed to meet your lifestyle.

Upstairs, the landing leads to five well-appointed bedrooms. The master bedroom is particularly spacious, with three large windows offering views of both the High Street and the picturesque gardens. Built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom with a shower, vanity washbasin, and WC complete this inviting space. The second bedroom enjoys a front-facing view and also benefits from built-in wardrobes. Bedrooms three and four offer plenty of built-in storage, while bedroom five, currently used as a study, is a versatile space with a Velux skylight, eaves storage, and built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom on this level features a panelled bath, separate shower, vanity washbasin, and WC, and is complemented by the comfort of electric underfloor heating.

The second floor provides further possibilities, with two additional rooms that are filled with light from Velux windows. One room is currently used as a bedroom, while the other, serving as a study, could easily double as a small sitting room. A second bathroom on this floor includes a panelled bath, WC, and washbasin.

Outside, the property’s garden is a lovely, private space. It is mostly laid to lawn, with additional terraces for relaxation or gardening. A greenhouse offers a perfect space for those with green fingers. A brick outbuilding, with a glazed door and window, overlooks the terrace and presents potential for conversion into a home office, garden studio, or creative space. A covered storage area adjoining this outbuilding offers additional practical space for tools or outdoor equipment.

The house is within easy walking distance of local shops, schools, and amenities, making it ideally placed for family life. The extensive driveway, bordered by a classic redbrick wall, provides ample off-street parking and a double entrance, which adds a welcome level of convenience.

In all, this property offers a wonderful opportunity to acquire a spacious and adaptable family home in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Linton. With its generous accommodation, charming garden, and prime location, it presents the perfect setting for a comfortable and enjoyable life.
