It could easily be adapted to form a self-contained annexe if required, offering guests privacy or providing multi-generational living options. Upstairs, the period charm continues across four well-proportioned bedrooms, two served by a large bathroom and shower and two by a shower and toilet. Outside, the gardens feature a generous gravel driveway providing ample parking, along with an electric car charging point. Brick terraces, mature planting, pergolas, and neatly clipped shrubs create a peaceful outdoor sanctuary, while the large lawn is perfect for children to play or for further landscaping. To the rear of the garden stands a detached barn, currently used as an office and workshop and storage space and benefiting from a shower and sauna. This versatile building lends itself to a wide range of potential uses, including a detached annexe, home office, or leisure space. The current owners have previously submitted a pre-application planning enquiry, which received a favourable response for conversion into a separate dwelling. Seller Insight
Conveniently located in historic Barkway village, this elegant Georgian home has been lived in and loved by the same family for over thirty years. The family were looking for a spacious home, large enough for family life and with the added benefit of an annexe that would accommodate an elderly parent, whilst still being connected to the main house. The Oak House ticked all the boxes, and the owners describes the immediate welcoming atmosphere and charm the family experienced when they viewed the property. Over the years each room has been enjoyed and appreciated, with all the spaces thoughtfully suited to both everyday living and entertaining. The living room and library combine to make a favourite space and have a definite wow factor, and the owners say first time visitors always exclaim: Stunning!. This is where you can relax by the glow of the wood burner or read and work contentedly in the library area. The garden room provides a delightful link between the house and garden and is the perfect place for breakfast and a morning coffee with the garden as a pretty background and perhaps give guests a pre-dinner drink before moving through to the dining room. It is a home which can comfortably provide hospitality and the owners recall memorable parties, including an event when a marquee was installed in the garden and guests drifted happily between house and garden. Externally, the garden is a real extension of the living space. There are charming areas to sit and relax either under the pergola, in the shade of an apple tree or enjoying al fresco meals around the twelve-seater table by the barn at the end of the garden. The barn is a substantial building and currently used as an office with sauna, shower facilities and a mezzanine sitting area, yet large enough for conversion into a separate dwelling. The owners will miss the comfort, space and character of the much-loved home but the time has come to downsize and move nearer to family. The house is ready to welcome its next family and create a new chapter of memories. Village Information

House Royston (United Kingdom)

Nestled along one of the most desirable lanes in the picturesque village of Great Chishill, Westview is an exceptional detached period residence that beautifully marries timeless character with refined, contemporary living. Set within a generous plot approaching half an acre and enjoying a high degree of privacy, this distinguished home offers over 2,000 sq ft of elegant and versatile accommodation, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens and open countryside beyond. Set back from the lane behind mature hedgerows and trees, the property presents an attractive façade with charming rendered elevations and an immediate sense of arrival. Inside, the home unfolds with warmth and sophistication, where a wealth of original features, including exposed timber beams, quarry tiled flooring and impressive brick-built fireplaces, blend seamlessly with tasteful modern finishes. The ground floor is thoughtfully arranged for both family life and entertaining, with three beautifully appointed reception rooms. A welcoming dining room, rich in character with its exposed beams and wood-burning stove, sets the tone upon entry, while the sitting room offers a wonderfully comfortable retreat, also benefitting from a dual aspect and feature fireplace. A further family room provides additional flexibility, ideal as a snug, playroom or home office. At the heart of the home lies a magnificent kitchen/breakfast room, a truly sociable space bathed in natural light from multiple aspects and French doors opening onto the gardens. Here, traditional elements such as an Aga set within an inglenook fireplace with bressummer beam sit alongside a range cooker, granite worktops, a double butler sink and a comprehensive range of cabinetry. A walk-in pantry and a generously sized utility room with WC enhance the practicality of this impressive space. Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms offer peaceful retreats, including a generous principal suite with delightful views across the gardens.

Expansive lawns are interspersed with mature trees, flowering borders and established hedgerows, creating a sense of seclusion and year-round interest. A substantial paved terrace and pergola provide the perfect setting for al fresco dining and entertaining, while the heated outdoor swimming pool, complete with pool house and adjoining workshop, adds a luxurious touch. A greenhouse, children's play area and various seating spots complete this enchanting garden. To the front, a gravel driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles and access to a detached double cart lodge. Great Chishill is a quintessential English village, set amidst rolling countryside yet conveniently positioned for access to the nearby market towns of Royston and Saffron Walden. The village itself offers a charming public house, a historic church and a strong sense of community, while excellent schooling and transport links, including mainline rail services to London, are readily accessible. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of such character, scale and setting, where period charm and modern comfort exist in perfect harmony. Seller Insight 5 Maltings Lane has been our home for the past 12 years. At the time, our children were still young and I was heavily pregnant with our third, so finding somewhere that felt safe, calm and full of good energy was so important. What truly sold it to me was the privacy - it's tucked away, quiet and unassuming, with only a handful of houses. Unless you live here, there's simply no reason to pass through, which gives it such a secure and peaceful feel. Over the years, we have lovingly modernised the house to suit our tastes, including updating the bathrooms. The master bedroom is a real sanctuary, with double aspect views over the garden, it's such a peaceful way to start each day. My favourite room in the house has always been the kitchen. It's incredibly spacious, opens up beautifully, and has been the heart of so many gatherings. It's perfect for entertaining, with the aga making it especially cosy in the winter months. In the summer, the garden truly comes into its own. Set across around half an acre and thoughtfully divided into four sections, it offers something for everyone. From the large patio with shaded areas, to the swimming pool, which has brought endless joy to our children over the years. Beyond that, there's an open lawn with a treehouse and trampoline, creating a great space for family life. This home has been made for entertaining. The generous room sizes and natural flow make hosting effortless. The kitchen leads into a snug where guests can relax, while the dining space has hosted countless Christmases, it's one of those homes where people naturally come together. There's a real village feel here, with a well-used village hall, a cricket club, and a wonderful primary school nearby. We've loved being able to cycle to local spots, enjoy the nearby pub, visit the working windmill, and take in the beautiful surrounding walks. What I will miss most is the way this home brings people together. The entertaining spaces, the summers around the pool, and the simple joy of the garden - it's all been so special. The pool, in particular, has been a huge part of our family life, enjoyed all year round thanks to being heated, and it's something my children will especially miss.

Beautifully presented and occupying a highly desirable village setting, Clematis Cottage is a home of genuine distinction. Combining timeless character, exceptional craftsmanship and modern convenience, it offers a rare opportunity to acquire one of the area's most captivating period homes. Seller Insight Clematis Cottage has been our home for the past 10 years, and from the moment we first saw it, we fell in love with its character. Weve always loved quirky homes with history, and this beautiful thatched cottage is full of beams, personality, and unique features that really have to be seen to be appreciated. Over the years, weve lovingly modernised the cottage while staying true to its history and character. One thing were especially proud of is how bright and airy weve made it. When we first moved in, parts of the house felt quite dark, so we added sky lanterns and opened up the space to let the light flood in. We also added an upstairs bathroom, a walk-through wardrobe that I absolutely love, and a utility room which has made family life so much easier. My favourite room has to be the living room. The sky lanterns and the wall of windows overlooking the garden make it feel so peaceful and connected to the outdoors. The garden itself has been such a huge part of our life here. Its incredibly private, with open fields behind and tall trees surrounding it, making it feel calm and secluded. Theres also rear access to the garden, which is really practical for parking and entertaining. Clematis Cottage has always been a wonderful home for hosting family and friends. Its become known as the Christmas house. We have a cosy dining room we jokingly call the parlour, complete with a fireplace, and at Christmas it feels truly magical. One of the things that has made living here so special is the sense of community. The village has such a warm and friendly atmosphere. The Wheatsheaf pub has recently been lovingly restored by a resident, and theres a real effort to bring everyone together with events, craft clubs, beer evenings, and traditions like the yearly Tempsford Show. It has a lovely village feel whilst still being incredibly convenient, with easy access to Sandy, St Neots, the rail links, and the A1 which makes living here the best of both worlds. What Ill miss most about Clematis Cottage is the garden and the life weve built around it. My workshop is out there, and its been my little haven for creativity and peace. Weve also been lucky to have such wonderful neighbours, and its the people, and the feeling of this home that we will really miss. Village Information Tempsford is a well-regarded Bedfordshire village with a strong sense of community and a range of local amenities. The village is home to the traditional Wheatsheaf public house, St Peter's Church, a Methodist Church, the popular Knotts Farm Shop and Farm Park, and a large Village Hall which hosts the annual Tempsford Show. The village also benefits from a museum and archive collection celebrating its rich local history. Historical landmarks include the remains of the 13th-century moated manor known as Gannocks, the former RAF Tempsford airfield, which played a significant role in the Second World War, and the attractive Millennium Garden Sanctuary. Located at the entrance to the garden is the RAF Tempsford Memorial, unveiled by HRH The Prince of Wales (now King Charles III) in December 2013 in honour of the men and women who flew secret wartime missions from the village. The nearby market town of Sandy, approximately 4 miles away, provides everyday shopping facilities, supermarkets and a mainline railway station with regular services to London King's Cross in approximately 4555 minutes. St Neots, around 6 miles away, offers a wider range of shopping, leisure and dining facilities, together with fast rail services to London King's Cross in as little as 40 minutes.
