About this listing

Bell House is a highly individual three-bedroom detached home offering approximately 1854 sq ft of accommodation, occupying a wonderfully private position at the end of Grass Yard, right in the heart of the historic market town of Kimbolton. Originally a Victorian school, the property has been converted to create a distinctive three-bedroom home which retains much of the character and proportions of the original building. High ceilings, sash windows and an interesting architectural form give the house a character quite unlike a conventional modern home, while its tucked-away setting is within easy walking distance of Kimbolton High Street. The house is approached over a gravelled driveway providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles. From here, the arched entrance opens into the reception hall, with stairs rising to the first floor and access to a ground-floor cloakroom. Ground Floor The principal reception room is a particularly generous and light-filled space, currently arranged to provide both sitting and dining areas. The proportions of the room are enhanced by its high ceiling, while French doors open directly onto the rear garden and create an excellent connection between the house and its outside space. A fireplace provides a natural focal point to the room. A second reception room provides useful flexibility. Currently suited as a more formal dining room or snug, its proportions would work equally well as a separate sitting room, study or family room. Sash windows to the front are another reminder of the building's Victorian origins. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinetry and incorporates a double oven, induction hob and extractor, with sash windows overlooking the garden. An adjoining utility room provides additional storage, space for appliances and independent access outside. First Floor Upstairs, the accommodation is arranged around a central landing, where a distinctive circular window provides a view towards the spire of St Andrew's Church – a particularly attractive detail which reinforces the home's position within historic Kimbolton. There are three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has fitted storage and its own en-suite shower room, while the second bedroom also incorporates fitted wardrobes. The third provides another comfortable double room, with the accommodation completed by a family bathroom and useful additional storage. Outside One of Bell House's defining features is its generous, secluded walled garden. Extending behind and around the house, the garden has an established, almost hidden quality which feels particularly unexpected given the property's central position within Kimbolton. A paved terrace immediately adjoining the house provides space for outdoor dining and entertaining, opening onto a broad lawn surrounded by mature trees, established shrubs and planted borders. A pond and further seating area add interest within the garden, while the mature planting and substantial boundaries create an excellent degree of privacy. The scale of the garden also gives a prospective owner plenty of opportunity to further landscape and personalise the space, while retaining the mature trees and established planting that give it so much character. A brick-built outbuilding provides useful garden and general storage, with gated pedestrian access connecting the rear garden back to the front of the property. Location Summary The setting is particularly attractive, tucked away within the historic market town of Kimbolton and within easy reach of its picturesque High Street. Kimbolton offers an excellent range of everyday amenities, independent shops, cafés and pubs, together with the highly regarded Kimbolton School. The town is surrounded by attractive Cambridgeshire countryside, while larger centres including Huntingdon, Bedford and St Neots are readily accessible. EPC Rating: E
