Description:
Vatches Barn is a very appealing and impressive period village home occupying a delightful position opposite the duck pond and backing onto the fields. The accommodation in the house itself offers around 3000sqft of spacious and bright living space on the ground floor with three versatile reception rooms and an Aga kitchen/breakfast room, along with a utility/shower room along with four double bedrooms and two further bathrooms, and a dressing room, on the first floor. The kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of units and appliances including oven and hob and dishwasher and French windows opening to the garden. The sitting room has a feature fireplace with woodburner and two sets of French windows to the garden and the courtyard. The dining room is currently used as a gym and again, doors to the courtyard.
The house has some lovely period features including exposed beams and floorboards and brick flooring.
There is also a useful one-bedroom annexe with open plan living space and kitchen, a bedroom and a shower room.
This property is the perfect village, family home, ideal for multi-generational and flexible living and for entertaining and outdoor hobbies.
Outside:
The property is approached over a shared gravelled driveway giving access to remotely controlled vehicular gates opening to the secure private parking for numerous vehicles. There are also further timber gates (from the shared driveway) leading to the field behind. The delightfully secluded and established rear gardens are mainly laid to lawn with lovely, mature trees, plants and flowering shrubs and provide excellent levels of seclusion and space for al-fresco dining and entertaining, taking full advantage of south-west aspect. There is also a charming and very private, landscaped courtyard garden which can be enjoyed by both the house and the studio. The gated field is laid to meadow with a handful of trees around the boundary and in the field itself.
Nb: There is a right of way over a corner part of this land with a metal gate providing access.
The gardens and grounds extend to around two acres.
Location:
Barton is one of the most popular Cambridgeshire villages situated just 3 miles south-west of the city. It boasts excellent local amenities including a village shop and post office, two public houses as well as Burwash Manor with its range of independent shops, café and delicatessen. Schooling for all ages is fully provided for with a primary school within walking distance and secondary schooling available at the highly regarded Comberton Village College, just 2 miles away. There are cycle routes available to Cambridge and Comberton, along with a regular bus service. For those needing to commute by road, Junction 12 of the M11 (leading to the west via the A14 or to London, Stansted Airport and the south) is within easy reach.
