House with garden and terrace Huntingdon (United Kingdom)
Set within approximately 15 acres of beautifully tended grounds, Pointers represents the ultimate country escape: a rare and enchanting rural estate where an exceptional family home, outstanding gardens and extensive equestrian and smallholding facilities combine to create a truly distinctive lifestyle property. Approached through impressive wrought iron electric gates and along a long, sweeping driveway, the house reveals itself amid an extraordinary landscape of mature woodland, meadows and meticulously maintained gardens. From its elevated position overlooking the charming village of Wistow, the property enjoys far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside, with spectacular sunsets providing a fitting end to the day. The grounds are undoubtedly one of the property's defining features. Thoughtfully designed and immaculately maintained, they offer an extraordinary variety of landscapes and spaces to explore, including a beautiful arboretum, established orchard, ornamental duck pond, perennial flower gardens, productive fruit and vegetable gardens, apiary, aviary, woodland, meadows and an extensive network of pathways. Paddocks, stables, barns and immaculate dog kennels further enhance the property's appeal, providing superb facilities for those seeking an equestrian, canine or smallholding lifestyle. The house itself offers generous and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, combining traditional country-house character with modern comfort. A series of distinct reception rooms provides flexibility for both formal entertaining and relaxed family life, while the impressive open-plan kitchen, living and dining space forms the natural heart of the home. Designed for contemporary country living, this substantial room provides an exceptional setting for everyday family life, entertaining and enjoying the ever-changing views across the grounds. Additional ground-floor accommodation includes a utility room, shower room, WC and private office, together with a separate dining room, elegant drawing room and conservatory. The combination of reception spaces allows the property to adapt effortlessly to both intimate occasions and larger gatherings. On the first floor are five well-proportioned bedrooms, including two with en-suite facilities, together with a family bathroom. The bedrooms provide peaceful private spaces from which to enjoy the rural setting, while the overall arrangement makes the house equally well suited to family occupation, entertaining and hosting guests. Externally, the property continues to impress. A substantial triple garage provides secure garaging and valuable storage, complemented by the property's extensive barns and ancillary buildings. Solar panels with battery storage further enhance the estate's modern credentials, contributing to its energy efficiency while complementing the self-sufficient character of the property. The extensive grounds create an almost private world of their own, offering opportunities for leisurely walks, gardening, keeping animals, entertaining outdoors or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of the countryside. Whether strolling through the arboretum, tending the productive gardens, watching wildlife beside the duck pond or relaxing on one of the property's patio areas as the sun sets over the farmland, Pointers is a home designed to be experienced as much as admired. Rarely does a property offer such a compelling combination of beautifully presented accommodation, exceptional grounds and extensive lifestyle facilities. Pointers is more than a country home; it is a complete rural retreat, offering privacy, tranquillity, space and an enviable connection with the landscape. For those seeking an exceptional country lifestyle, this is a property with the space, setting and facilities to make that aspiration a reality. Seller Insight There is a particular feeling you get when you realise you have found somewhere that could become entirely your own. For us, that was Pointers. We arrived to find a house with no immediate neighbours and 15 acres of land around it and immediately saw the possibilities. It was a blank canvas, somewhere we could create an easily maintained, natural refuge for wildlife, while making a home for ourselves and our dogs. I grew up in the countryside and, as a child, learnt to notice and appreciate nature and animals. That connection has always stayed with me, and at Pointers we have been able to create the kind of environment we love. Every tree, hedge, pond, paddock and walkway has been planned and planted by us, with the aim of making the land beautiful while encouraging as much wildlife as possible. What was once a bare stubble field has become a rich and varied habitat, with small woods threaded by paths and rides. The ponds have become a particularly special part of the landscape. There are two: a formal, fenced pond close to the house, complete with a waterfall and ornamental ducks, and a much larger flight pond towards the southern end of the property, which attracts an abundance of wildfowl. Visiting ducks and geese regularly nest on the island in the middle of the pond, adding to the feeling that the wildlife here is very much part of everyday life. There is something new to discover every day. We have an outstanding variety of butterflies and moths, as well as dragonflies, slow worms, grass snakes, foxes, badgers and deer. The birdlife is particularly wonderful, with swallows, barn owls, raptors, game birds and countless other species making use of the land. Quiet evening walks often bring the chance to see deer moving through the paddocks, while the ponds provide a constant source of activity and birdsong. We are passionate about pointing dogs, so having space to train them was another important part of creating Pointers. The paddocks have also provided a wonderfully useful setting for sheep, horses and ponies, and have even been borrowed by a local farmer for cows and calves. Over time, the land has become home to an extraordinary variety of wildlife and mammal species, while still remaining a practical and enjoyable part of the way we live. The house itself has more than doubled in size since we bought it, evolving alongside the landscape. It has become a spacious and comfortable family home, with generous reception rooms, a large kitchen and living area overlooking the surrounding farmland, and bedrooms enjoying views across the gardens, paddocks and countryside. Sitting slightly elevated on a natural rise, Pointers enjoys an amazing open outlook, with views extending well beyond the property's own land across the surrounding farmland and countryside. The elevated position means these far-reaching views can be enjoyed from both the ground and first floors, adding to the wonderful sense of space and seclusion. There are plenty of practical spaces too, including the garages, workshop, utility, stables and purpose-built kennels, which have all made the property work beautifully for the way we have lived here. Looking back, we feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to take a neglected property and create not simply a home, but a whole environment, one that continues to surprise and delight us with its wildlife, peace and sense of connection to nature.

House with garden and terrace Huntingdon (United Kingdom)
Occupying a wonderfully private position within a secluded enclave of just three properties, Oak Barn is an impressive family home surrounded by beautifully manicured gardens and enjoying far-reaching views across the open Cambridgeshire countryside. Situated in the charming village of Old Hurst, to the north-east of Huntingdon, the property offers an appealing combination of generous and versatile accommodation, attractive outside space and a peaceful rural setting, whilst remaining conveniently placed for the amenities of both Huntingdon and St Ives. The house opens into a spacious reception hall, with a glazed wall providing an immediate connection to the garden room and the gardens beyond. There are two well-proportioned reception rooms, together with a dedicated study, cloakroom and useful utility room. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with bespoke-style solid oak cabinetry, granite work surfaces and ample space for informal family dining. On the first floor are four generously proportioned double bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite shower rooms, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom. The accommodation provides excellent flexibility for modern family life, with the additional study and outbuildings offering superb opportunities for home working, hobbies or ancillary use. Outside, the property is enveloped by beautifully maintained gardens, laid predominantly to lawn and complemented by established planting. The gardens extend around the house and open out towards wonderful views over the surrounding countryside and a small paddock, creating a particularly tranquil and private setting. A range of useful outbuildings further enhance the property, including a garage, log store and workshop, together with a separate office with its own WC. There is also generous off-street parking, making Oak Barn particularly well suited to family life and those requiring space for home working or recreational pursuits. Old Hurst is an attractive and characterful Cambridgeshire village with a strong sense of community. Village life centres around the church, which hosts a variety of activities including coffee mornings, singing and craft groups. The village's original red telephone box has also been given a new lease of life as a popular book exchange. A particular local attraction is Johnsons of Old Hurst, a renowned farm shop and butchers, complete with a steakhouse restaurant and tea room serving locally sourced produce. Families are well catered for too, with a children's play area, farm walk and an eclectic collection of rare-breed animals. For everyday amenities, the market town of Huntingdon is approximately a 15-minute drive away and provides an extensive selection of supermarkets, shops, restaurants and public houses. Seller Insight The connection between the house and its surroundings has always been important to us. We added bi-fold doors to both the sitting room and dining room, bringing in more light and opening the principal living spaces directly onto the garden and the landscape beyond. The south-facing garden has been designed to be attractive but relatively easy to maintain. We replaced the patios, introduced raised beds and added a substantial gazebo, which has effectively created an additional living space. Furnished with sofas, a television and fridge, it allows us to spend much of the day outside while remaining sheltered from the strongest sun. Inside, the kitchen-diner is the room we use most. The large central island makes it a very sociable space, while the addition of a sofa means it works equally well for cooking, dining or simply sitting together. It has been particularly well suited to having our adult children and grandchildren to stay, with enough space for everyone to gather comfortably. Old Hurst itself has been an equally important part of our enjoyment of the house. It is a small, friendly village where we have made some very good friends, and Johnsons of Old Hurst with its farm shop, steakhouse, tearoom and zoo, is only a couple of minutes walk away. What we will miss most, however, is the setting. There is something quite special about looking out over uninterrupted fields and countryside while still feeling entirely private. It is that combination of expansive views, peace and seclusion that has made Oak Barn such an enjoyable place to live. Village Information Old Hurst is a small village lying approx. 5 miles from the market towns of Huntingdon and St Ives which offer a variety of high street and local independent stores, bars and restaurants, supermarkets and a wide range of sports and leisure activities. Within the village is the pretty parish church of St Peters which dates from the 13th century and is Grade II* listed. Johnsons of Old Hurst is a popular farm shop with coffee shop, woodland walks, farmyard animals and zoological gardens/tropical house; ideal for family outings. Although there are no schools within the village there is a good selection of well-regarded primary schools in the nearby villages of Warboys, Wyton-on-the-Hill and Houghton to name a few and well-regarded secondary schools in St Ives, Huntingdon and Ramsey. There are also regular bus services to Huntingdon and St Ives. Huntingdon has a mainline train station with fast commuter links into London Kings Cross in approx. 45 minutes and both Huntingdon and St Ives offer the popular guided bus service to Cambridge city centre.

Blending period charm with stylish contemporary finishes, this impressive home extends to over 2,000 sq ft of versatile family accommodation and retains a wealth of original features that celebrate its rich heritage. The current owners have thoughtfully transformed the property throughout, creating a home that is both elegant and perfectly suited to modern family living. At the heart of the house is the outstanding kitchen/breakfast room, beautifully designed with bespoke cabinetry, quality integrated appliances and striking bi-fold doors that open directly onto the courtyard garden. Bathed in natural light, this exceptional space provides the perfect setting for everyday family life and entertaining. The ground floor also features an impressive family/dining room extending to more than 33 feet in length, a cosy sitting room with fireplace, a study and a cloakroom. Arranged over three floors, the well-balanced accommodation includes five generously proportioned bedrooms, complemented by beautifully appointed en suite and family bathrooms, offering excellent flexibility for growing families, guests or those working from home. Outside, the private courtyard garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to make the most of both the available space and sunshine, creating a secluded and low-maintenance outdoor retreat with areas for dining, entertaining and relaxation. A garage and separate workshop provide valuable storage and additional practical space. Properties of this calibre rarely become available in such a desirable central location. Combining character, space and exceptional presentation throughout, 14 Old Court Hall presents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully restored period home in the heart of one of Huntingdonshire's most sought-after market towns. Seller Insight 14 Old Court Hall has been our home for the past six years, and it's been such a special place for us. What first drew me in was the location as much as the house itself. We had come from a small village with just a pub, and suddenly we were somewhere with so much more: excellent schools, a real sense of community, beautiful parks and the river nearby. From the moment we walked through the door, it just felt right. Over the years, we've lovingly modernised the entire house. It hadn't been updated for around 25 years, so we've really maximised every opportunity. One of my favourite features is the dining room wall, where a local artist created a stunning spray-painted piece, taking inspiration from the curtains in the lounge - it's such a talking point. Working in interiors, I've enjoyed bringing in beautiful designer wall coverings and fabrics throughout, adding personality to every room. My favourite space has to be the main bedroom suite. It feels completely separate from the rest of the house, like a peaceful sanctuary. The main bathroom has a real boutique hotel feel, something guests always comment on. Downstairs, the lounge is cosy and welcoming, with a wood burner and bi-fold doors that open straight onto the courtyard. The garden is low-maintenance, private, and beautifully enclosed. Having parking for two cars in front of the garage, and another behind the gates, in the centre of the village is such a bonus too. This home has been perfect for entertaining. We've hosted everything from BBQs to a garden engagement party with a marquee and live singer with around 80 guests. The community here is incredible, and it's a big part of why we love it so much. We are staying local, which says everything about how much this area means to us. There's always something going on if you want to get involved, and everything you need is right on your doorstep, including excellent nurseries, pre-schools, and fantastic primary schools. The great selection of good restaurants and pubs within a 5 minute walk. Village Information Nestled on the banks of the River Great Ouse and adjoining the historic market town of Huntingdon, Godmanchester is one of Cambridgeshire's most desirable locations, combining a rich heritage with excellent amenities and superb connectivity. Believed to be one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in the country, Godmanchester boasts a fascinating history dating back over 2,000 years to Roman times. Today, its attractive streets, charming period properties, and iconic Chinese Bridge create a distinctive character that continues to attract families and professionals alike. The town enjoys a wonderful sense of community, with a busy calendar of events throughout the year including the popular Godmanchester Gala Day, Picnic in the Park, Easter celebrations, and the much-loved Scarecrow Festival. A range of clubs, societies and sporting facilities further enhance the town's welcoming atmosphere. For those who enjoy the outdoors, Godmanchester offers an abundance of green spaces and scenic walks. The picturesque riverside provides beautiful views along the Great Ouse, while nearby Portholme Meadow, the largest ancient meadow in England, offers acres of open countryside to explore. Godmanchester Nature Reserve, with its lakes, grassland and diverse wildlife habitats, is another popular destination for walkers, cyclists and nature enthusiasts. Everyday amenities are well catered for, with local shops, cafés, pubs, restaurants, a pharmacy, doctors' surgery and dental practice all within easy reach. The town is also home to highly regarded primary schools, with excellent secondary education available nearby in Huntingdon. Commuters are particularly well served. Huntingdon railway station is just a short distance away and provides fast and regular services to London King's Cross in approximately 40 minutes. The A14 and A1(M) are also easily accessible, offering convenient road links to Cambridge, Peterborough, London and beyond. With the new road links to Cambridge, driving to the city is achievable in 20 minutes. Combining historic charm, riverside beauty, excellent schooling and outstanding transport connections, Godmanchester offers an exceptional quality of life for families, professionals and retirees alike.

Set within almost an acre of beautifully established gated grounds, the property felt both impressive and wonderfully peaceful. As we stepped inside, the magnificent, curved staircase immediately drew our attention, setting the tone for a home where thoughtful design and exceptional craftsmanship can be found at every turn.

The limestone and cherry wood floors, the bespoke curved walls, the stunning principal suite with its incredible dressing room and private balcony, the cinema room, reading snug and generous entertaining spaces all combine to create a home with real personality and presence. We have invested significantly during our ownership, creating a spectacular outdoor kitchen and entertaining area complete with bar, fire pit and seating, as well as extending the pond into the beautiful koi feature that has become the heart of the garden. Watching the koi glide through the water from the living room, terrace or kitchen is endlessly calming and one of the things we will miss most. The house has been the backdrop to countless celebrations with family and friends. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living space flows effortlessly onto the terraces through bifold doors, making indoor and outdoor entertaining feel seamless. The cinema room, complete with its wood-burning stove, has hosted everything from family movie nights to major sporting occasions, while the games room in the annexe has provided the perfect space for guests of all ages. Our favourite place is undoubtedly the principal suite. Enjoying a quiet coffee and fresh pastries on the balcony while overlooking the gardens on a Sunday morning feels wonderfully peaceful. The dressing room is a dream, and the luxurious en-suite creates a true retreat from the rest of the world. Rowan House has given us everything: space to entertain, space to work, space to relax and space to grow as a family. With excellent schools nearby, strong transport links and a welcoming village community, it has been an exceptional place to call home. Leaving will be incredibly difficult, but we hope the next owners will love it as much as we have.

Seller Insight Viola has been our home since 2012, and from the very beginning, it's been something truly special. We built this house ourselves with a dream of creating the perfect family home, and over the years, it has become exactly that and more. What first drew us here was the location. As you turn down the private road, there's an immediate sense of calm, it feels like stepping into another world, far removed from the noise and busyness of everyday life. That feeling has never faded. Because we built the house, we were able to create a space that perfectly balances family living with entertaining. We didn't cut corners when it came to comfort, and every detail has been thoughtfully considered. It's a home that feels luxurious, yet completely practical too. Features like the internal laundry chute have made everyday life that little bit easier. We've taken great care of the house over the years, and it's something we're really proud of. The kitchen is without a doubt our favourite room. It's the heart of the home - somewhere we can cook and spend time together while entertaining. In the summer, opening the doors creates a seamless flow into the garden, while in the colder months it still feels warm and cosy. It's a space that just works, no matter the season. The garden was always central to our vision. With its large wraparound patio, it's peaceful and private - a real escape. It's been the perfect place for long summer days and evenings, with the TV, sound system, and outdoor lighting creating a lovely indoor-outdoor lifestyle. This has always been a home made for entertaining and bringing people together. From movie nights in the cinema room when the children were younger, to hosting Christmas with family returning year after year, it's a house full of life and memories. There's plenty of space for everyone, so it never feels crowded- just warm and welcoming. The community here is something quite rare. It's quiet and private, yet always supportive when it matters, it's a lovely balance of seclusion and connection that's hard to find. What we'll miss most is the love, care, and thought that went into building this home. It's more than just a house to us - it's been a huge part of our lives, and leaving it won't be easy. We're moving to be closer to family, and we know it's the right time. We truly hope the next family will love this home as much as we have.

Seller Insight As the fifth generation of our family to call The Old Rectory home, it is hard to put into words just how special this place is, say the current owners. Nestled in the heart of the village yet set back from the road in a wonderfully private location, this former Georgian rectory has been the backdrop to countless cherished memories. With its high ceilings, arched windows, and generous reception rooms, it has been a place of celebration, gathering, and quiet retreat. The house sits on an expansive plot, surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens that wrap around the property, the owners continue. The front lawn, once home to a grass tennis court, has hosted everything from village flower festival teas to family weddings. The rear garden extends down through the orchard to the river, where a landing stage and boathouse provide the perfect launch point for punting, rowing, and summer picnics along the water. The Wellingtonia tree, planted in the early 1850s to commemorate the Duke of Wellington, stands as a proud testament to the property's history. Inside, our favourite space has always been the drawing room, with its bay window and French doors leading out to the garden, the owners say. This is where we gathered as a familyfour children, then grandchildrento toast crumpets on the fire at Christmas; or with all of our friends and neighbours for our mother's famous Christmas parties for nearly 100 guests! The kitchen, remodelled in 2013, opens into a breakfast room and yard, linking to the boot room for practicality. Other upgrades include a full rewire in 2018 and a new lead roof on the sitting room bay window just last year. Beyond the main house, the Coach House offers independent living, thoughtfully converted by our architect uncle in 1976 and further enhanced in 2013 with a lift, an expanded kitchen-dining area, and a sitting room with French doors overlooking the river. It enjoys its own peaceful garden, making it a perfect retreat. The local area has much to recommend it, too. The village of Hemingford Abbots itself is an idyllic place to live, with a thriving community spirit centred around the church, village hall, and nearby pub. Excellent schools, both state and private, are within easy reach, and transport links to Cambridge, London, and beyond make this an ideal countryside escape with city access.

House with garden and terrace Huntingdon (United Kingdom)
Set in a peaceful and idyllic location with views over the neighbouring church and river, this period residence features well-presented accommodation with good ceiling height and a rich history. The two principal reception rooms are dual aspect and offer wonderful views of the garden and charming inglenook fireplaces. The kitchen has been sympathetically extended with a breakfast room, flooding the space with natural light and connecting the indoors and outdoors. Two staircases provide access to the first floor and study space. Upstairs, the four double bedrooms are all dual aspect, with most overlooking the garden and/or the river and church. The principal bedroom and second bedroom are particularly spacious and full of character. Two bathrooms serve the bedrooms. The very private and beautiful gardens complement the charming rear facade perfectly. Well-stocked borders sit alongside lawns, paths, and patios. A substantial wooden pergola draped in fragrant climbers is a wonderful spot for entertaining and relaxing. The large garage with an integral door provides parking and utility space. Seller Insight Built in the mid-1500s, The Old Cottage and surrounding land was once owned by renowned artist, Walter Dendy Sadler, and has featured in some of his paintings. He designed the gardens himself which, to this day, retain the same infrastructure in the flowerbeds and trees. We stood in the garden and were struck by the beauty, and it was this, along with the characterful, large rooms and sense of history that all came together and simply blew us away, recall the owners. The location was also very appealing as transport links are excellent. The setting is truly idyllic with unsurpassed views of the river, meadows, garden, churchyard, and church tower. Lake Ashmore, in the village, is perfect for open swimming. The village has lots going on and it's a great place for people of all ages to enjoy everything it has to offer, including the annual regatta where our sons earned their rowing skills and a love of the water for which we will be forever grateful. Just take a step out of the front door or through the garden gate and you will find yourself immersed in nature. From our garden gate we can access the river to drop ourselves in for a quick dip or canoe. The garden is secluded and not overlooked, so it lends itself to entertaining and we have naturally become the 'go to' place for work parties and gatherings with family and friends. The jasmine-covered pergola is a wonderful feature and we're surrounded by the divine scent whilst dining or relaxing in the swing chair. The addition of the breakfast room has been quite transformative in how we have lived in the house and it has been much loved by all. Panoramic views of the garden, trees, and length of the beautiful old part of the property provide a scenic backdrop for a room where we can sit and be at one with the scenery. We tend to gravitate towards the older part of the house as it has a very special ambience and characterful features, such as the double-sided inglenook. We've celebrated christenings and birthdays here, as well as our annual Christmas party when the dining room setting comes into its own. There are many serene spots in the house where we sit and lose ourselves in the peace and views of nature which are interrupted only by the occasional barge passing quietly by. Village Information Hemingford Grey is situated along the banks of the River Great Ouse and is well-known as a very picturesque and sought-after Cambridgeshire village.

Despite its distinguished heritage, it has always felt wonderfully easy to live in. Behind its handsome façade lies a private sanctuary where the outside world melts away and the peaceful garden feels a million miles from everyday life. What truly set Bell House apart for us was this remarkable combination of tranquillity and convenience.

Over the years, we have carefully enhanced the house with enormous respect for its heritage. The roof has been completely renewed, original wooden floors and pamment tiles lovingly restored, fireplaces reopened and a former cowshed transformed into a beautifully appointed guest suite. Every improvement has been guided by longevity, comfort and a desire to preserve the soul of the house. The interior were thoughtfully designed by well-known interior designers Joanne Lindsay and Jane Keisner. Bell House has witnessed the happiest chapters of our family life. Our children spent carefree summers picking fruit from the garden, sleeping in the treehouse, racing along a zip wire through the orchard and cycling through the village ford. The garden itself is magical: sun-filled from morning until dusk, with magnificent sunsets and spaces equally suited to quiet reflection or lively gatherings. Entertaining here has always been effortless. Intimate candlelit dinners have stretched long into the night, while fundraising events and celebrations for over a hundred guests have flowed seamlessly through the four reception rooms. Yet, when the house is quiet, our favourite retreat remains the principal bedroom and dressing room: indulgent, comforting and utterly peaceful.

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.

House with garden Bedford (United Kingdom)
Dating from the 17th century, the property exudes timeless charm, with exposed timbers, inglenook fireplaces and ledge and brace doors sitting harmoniously alongside thoughtfully introduced modern comforts. Extending to approximately 2,734 sq. ft., the accommodation is both generous and flexible, lending itself equally well to busy family life or relaxed, comfortable retirement living. The Accommodation The heart of the home is a beautifully fitted kitchen/breakfast room, featuring bespoke colour-washed oak cabinetry, complementary work surfaces and space for a range style cooker — perfect for family mealtimes or leisurely weekend entertaining. The adjacent dining room continues the period aesthetic with wood effect flooring, exposed timbers and a striking inglenook feature fireplace. A particular highlight is the recently added oak framed garden room, thoughtfully designed using old stock bricks and oak framed windows, including a charming pyramid lantern with garden views. A log burning stove set on a raised hearth, solid oak flooring throughout and glazed doors opening onto a private seating area make this an inviting space for all seasons. A utility cupboard and access to the family bathroom complete this wing. The sitting room and adjoining snug offer further comfortable living space, with the snug providing access to a ground floor shower room and a staircase to an additional bedroom. This configuration lends itself naturally to use as an independent annexe — ideal for visiting family, a live-in relative, or the flexibility that modern family life so often demands. Five well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged across the first floor, including two principal bedrooms accessed via the garden room wing, both benefitting from en suite facilities. The dual aspect principal bedroom enjoys glazed double doors opening directly onto the rear garden, bringing the outside in and offering a wonderfully tranquil start to each day. Outside The property is approached via a sweeping gravel driveway, arriving at a detached double width garage with up and over door, power, eaves storage and an electric car charging point — a practical and future-conscious addition. The formal gardens, extending to approximately 2.36 acres, are a true feature of this property. Enclosed on all sides for complete privacy, the grounds are principally lawned and framed by established borders, broad leaf, coniferous and fruit trees. A pergola and brick built barbeque provide a wonderful outdoor entertaining setting, whilst a custom built greenhouse, summerhouse and garden shed cater to the keen horticulturalist. A small brook meanders through the plot, adding to the peaceful, rural atmosphere. A stable block, currently used for storage, offers exciting potential for further development or conversion, subject to the usual consents. Situation and Schooling Moggerhanger enjoys an enviable position within central Bedfordshire, approximately 2 miles from the A1 at Sandy and 15 miles from junction 13 of the M1, offering excellent connectivity without compromising on village tranquillity.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Rushden (United Kingdom)
An exceptional opportunity to acquire two individually designed detached homes, occupying an impressive private setting extending to approximately 4.7 acres. 84 and 84A Avenue Road were designed and constructed by the current owners in 2019 for their own family occupation. Drawing upon more than 54 years of experience within the construction industry, considerable attention was given not simply to appearance, but to the integrity, comfort, longevity and efficiency of the buildings. The result is two beautifully considered three-bedroom homes offering an unusually high standard of construction, together with extensive landscaped gardens, approximately 4.2 acres of paddocks, garaging, equestrian facilities and highly versatile ancillary accommodation. For families looking to live alongside one another whilst retaining independence, the arrangement is particularly compelling. Equally, the combination of two separate homes, land and outbuildings creates a lifestyle opportunity that is extremely difficult to replicate. The Homes Both properties have been designed around comfortable modern living, with generous accommodation and aluminium windows and bi-folding doors creating a natural connection between the interiors and surrounding grounds. Behind the contemporary finish is a particularly impressive construction specification. Built using traditional brick and block construction, the homes incorporate fully insulated 150mm cavity walls, concrete ground floors and reinforced concrete first floors. The latter were specifically chosen to minimise vibration and improve sound insulation between the floors. Reinforced concrete staircases provide a similarly substantial feel, eliminating the movement and creaking often associated with more conventional staircase construction, while acoustic floor and ceiling construction further reduces noise transmission between levels. It is a level of consideration that reflects the fact these properties were never constructed simply for resale; they were created by experienced construction professionals as long-term homes for their own family. Heating & Energy Efficiency Comfort and efficiency were integral to the original design. Both properties benefit from wet underfloor heating throughout, with individual room thermostats allowing temperatures to be independently controlled. Combined with the highly insulated construction, this creates an efficient and comfortable environment throughout the seasons. Approximately 12kW of solar PV serves the properties, of which approximately 4kW remains on the original Feed-in Tariff, providing a valuable annual income. The owners advise that, historically, the Feed-in Tariff income attributable to 84A has covered its annual electricity and gas costs under normal occupancy. Gardens & Grounds The setting is one of the defining features of this remarkable offering. The properties occupy approximately 4.7 acres in total, comprising around half an acre of beautifully landscaped formal gardens and approximately 4.2 acres of paddocks with Planning Permission for a Menage. Electric entrance gates provide an impressive sense of arrival, opening onto extensive concrete-paved driveways and pathways continuing towards the stable yard. Secondary gates further along the driveway provide additional separation between the residential and ancillary areas. The grounds have been thoughtfully equipped with external power points and water supplies, while a purpose-built rainwater harvesting well collects water from the roofs for use in garden irrigation. Together, the formal gardens and adjoining paddocks create an appealing balance between landscaped outdoor living and open space, with obvious appeal for those with equestrian or country lifestyle interests. Stables, Workshop & Ancillary Accommodation A substantial brick and block stable complex further distinguishes the property and incorporates stables, a tack room and workshop. In addition, there is a fully constructed ancillary room currently utilised as an office and fourth bedroom. Finished to a particularly useful standard, it incorporates underfloor heating, a shower room, WC, wash basin, storage and mains services. This creates an excellent degree of flexibility for those working from home, accommodating guests or requiring space for hobbies and other uses, subject to any necessary consents. Internet connectivity has also been extended beyond the houses into the principal outbuildings, including the office/stable complex. Garaging & Parking Both homes enjoy their own garaging and generous parking provision. No. 84 benefits from a double garage with an EV charging point and Wi-Fi connectivity, while No. 84A has a single garage and its own EV charging point. The extensive paved driveway provides substantial additional parking and continues through the grounds towards the stable complex. A Rare Lifestyle Opportunity What makes 84 and 84A Avenue Road particularly special is not one individual feature, but the combination they provide. Two separate three-bedroom detached homes allow different generations of a family to live alongside one another whilst retaining their own independence and privacy. Add to this approximately 4.7 acres, paddocks, equestrian facilities, workshops, ancillary accommodation and an exceptional underlying construction specification, and the result is a proposition quite unlike the conventional modern home. Whether sought for multi-generational living, equestrian interests, home working or simply the freedom afforded by owning two homes and land within one setting, 84 and 84A Avenue Road represent an exceptionally rare opportunity. Location Avenue Road is situated in Rushden, providing convenient access to the town's extensive everyday amenities while the scale and grounds of the property create a notably more private lifestyle. Rushden and neighbouring Higham Ferrers offer a broad selection of shops, schools, leisure facilities, restaurants and everyday services, while Rushden Lakes provides an extensive choice of retail, dining and leisure opportunities. The location is also well placed for access to surrounding Northamptonshire countryside and neighbouring towns including Wellingborough, Bedford and Northampton. For commuters, rail services from Bedford and Wellingborough provide connections towards London, while the A45 gives convenient road access towards the wider regional network.
