Property description
A period four bedroom detached farmhouse, sympathetically restored with four reception rooms, four bedrooms, a cellar, a sauna, and a studio/home office in a wraparound garden with off street parking on a corner plot in the award winning village of Clifton.
Once residence to George Byng, 1st Viscount Torrington, the farmhouse, dating back to the 18th century, has now been converted to a modern, fully integrated smart home, whilst retaining its period character and many original features. The property offers over 3,000 sq. ft. of accommodation arranged over three levels, including a cellar, currently used as a utility room. On the ground floor there are a pantry and a cloakroom, a formal sitting room, family and dining rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and a cinema and games room. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and a dressing room, and a family bathroom. The garden wraps around the property with an enclosed main area at the rear accessing an office/studio which is fully insulated with power and lighting. There is driveway parking for two cars and a timber storeroom.
Ground Floor
At the front of the property, off the entrance hall, is a formal dining room with solid wood flooring and an original open fireplace in a brick chimney breast. There are built-in alcove cupboards and a window overlooking the front. Adjacent to the dining room is a sitting room with a second open fire with a tiled surround. In addition to the formal sitting room there is family room with original brick flooring and a log burning stove in a brick chimney breast. This leads out to the original ‘Brew House', now converted to a games and cinema room with mezzanine.
First Floor
The principal bedroom suite has an exposed brick chimney breast with a cast iron fireplace and a storage cupboard. The dressing area with built-in hanging and shelving and a vanity wash basin, leads to the en suite shower room and a second staircase to the kitchen. There are three further double bedrooms, one with a sauna. The family bathroom incorporates a WC booth with a glass privacy door, a bath with storage below, a walk-in shower cubicle, and a vanity wash basin.
Garden and Outbuildings
The rear garden has a lawned area and a raised patio for entertaining. The bespoke studio/home office is brick built with timber cladding and offers potential as a work space, a studio, or an additional living area. It is fully insulated with double glazed patio doors and a decked patio area at the front. There is an adjoining storage room and wood/bike shed.
Situation and Schooling
Clifton was voted Bedfordshire Village of the Year in 2003, 2005 and 2009. It was once a centre for straw plaiting but is now mainly residential with a duck pond in the centre. The 14th- and 15th-century All Saints Church was restored in the 19th century. Other amenities include a lower school, a butcher, a post office/village store, an Indian restaurant, a garage, a petrol station, a hairdresser and two public houses. The Samuel Whitbread Academy is in the nearby village of Shefford.
