Bartlow, Cambridge, CB21

NO ONWARD CHAIN. Blackditch Barns is a beautifully presented detached village home occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.55 acres, offering generous and versatile single-storey accommodation with an abundance of character. The property has been thoughtfully improved during the current owners’ occupation, combining its timber-framed construction with a high-quality contemporary finish.

The front door opens into a welcoming reception hall with vaulted ceiling, natural timber flooring, exposed timbers and a picture window overlooking the inner courtyard. A secondary hallway leads to a useful utility/ boot room and WC, formerly the kitchen, providing excellent storage and practical everyday space.

At the heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen/ living/ dining room, featuring a vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers and glazed doors opening onto the courtyard. The beautifully appointed Neptune kitchen incorporates quartz worktops, a substantial central island with breakfast bar and a range of integrated appliances. The adjoining sitting area centres around a fireplace with fitted log-burning stove, with ample space for both dining and additional seating.

An inner hallway provides access to four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms offer flexibility for family living, guests or home working. There is also a well-appointed family bathroom.

There is potential for further accommodation within the loft space, with a door already positioned at the gable end and provision for steps to be installed, subject to any necessary consents and building regulations.

Outside, a gravel driveway provides generous off-street parking and leads to the garage, which is currently partitioned to create a useful workshop area.

A substantial outbuilding provides excellent additional versatility and has previously been used as an office, saddlery, art studio, gym and games room, with further storage above. Although not converted as a domestic annexe, it offers considerable potential for home working, hobbies or recreational use.

The property and outbuilding enclose an attractive sheltered courtyard, while the established gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, hedging, flowerbeds and borders. A more recent addition by the current owners is the large pond with surrounding decked walkway, which connects to a further timber seating area with pergola, creating an attractive setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Bartlow is an attractive and highly regarded village, conveniently positioned for Linton, Saffron Walden and Cambridge. Audley End railway station provides regular services to London Liverpool Street, Cambridge is approximately 11 miles away, and access to the M11 is available at Junction 9.

Agent's Note: Blackditch Barns is of timber-frame construction and lending criteria can vary between mortgage providers.
