About this listing

An attractive four bedroom village home, with Edwardian features and a large mature garden. Description Little Barton is an immaculately presented Edwardian house, combining elegant period architecture with generous and versatile accommodation, extending to over 4,000 sq ft in all and occupying a mature plot of about 0.7 acres. Built during the Edwardian era, Little Barton retains a wealth of period character, including high ceilings, wood flooring, deep skirting boards, panelled rooms and attractive door architraves. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and benefits from two staircases, providing a flexible and practical layout. A recessed porch opens into the welcoming reception hall, where there is a cloakroom and useful storage cupboard housing the boiler. The family room is a particularly inviting space, featuring a fireplace and providing access to the main staircase. At the heart of the house is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with painted grey cabinetry and complemented by travertine flooring, which continues through to the adjoining utility room. A gas-fired woodburner provides a cosy focal point. From the kitchen, a part-glazed door leads into the stunning vaulted orangery. With its panoramic views across the gardens and direct access to the terrace, this is an exceptional space for both entertaining and informal family living, with the opportunity to open the house seamlessly to the gardens during the warmer months. The drawing room is an elegant principal reception room, centred around a feature fireplace and enjoying a large bay window incorporating a comfortable seating area. The combination of generous proportions, period detailing and views over the gardens creates a particularly appealing formal reception space. The main staircase rises from the family room to the first-floor landing, where there is a substantial walk-in linen cupboard and separate airing cupboard. The principal bedroom is a generous double room with a large bay window overlooking the gardens. It is served by a luxurious family bathroom, featuring a freestanding claw-foot bath and separate shower cubicle. There are two further double bedrooms, both benefiting from built-in wardrobes and large bay windows, with one having the benefit of a recently fitted en suite shower room. A second staircase rises from the reception hall to the fourth double bedroom, creating a degree of separation from the principal bedroom accommodation. This room is complemented by a recently fitted en suite bathroom with bath and overhead shower, making it particularly well suited to guests, older children or independent family living. Outside; Little Barton is approached through mature hedging and established trees, with private wooden gates opening onto the gravelled driveway. The driveway provides generous parking and continues beyond the detached double garage towards the house. The detached double garage has traditional double doors and a staircase leading to a spacious room above. Adjacent to the garage is a comfortable home office, providing an ideal dedicated workspace. The approved planning permission for the garage extension presents an exciting opportunity to significantly enhance the property's already generous accommodation. The proposed side and rear extensions would create additional space of almost 2,000 sq ft, with the ground floor incorporating a workshop and gym, together with further accommodation and a cloakroom at first-floor level. The mature gardens and grounds extend to approximately 0.737 of an acre and provide a wonderful setting for the house. Established flower beds are planted with a variety of mature specimens, providing colour and interest throughout the seasons, while a mature copse of trees creates a secluded backdrop at the far end of the garden. A large terrace wraps around the house, providing a number of areas for outdoor dining and entertaining. A further gravelled seating area enjoys a south-westerly aspect, making the most of the afternoon and evening sun. A low-level door from the terrace provides access to a full-height cellar, offering useful additional storage.
