Property description
A Grade II listed late 17th century barn conversion in a private position within screened formal gardens with driveway parking and a detached double garage.
The property is in the grounds of Wootton House and has views of the village church. The 2,031 sq. ft. of accommodation includes open plan sitting and dining rooms with views of the gardens from full height windows. The kitchen leads off the sitting room and there is also a family room and a separate combined utility/cloakroom. On the first floor there is a landing with a high vaulted ceiling and access to the five bedrooms and refitted four piece family bathroom. The principal bedroom also has a vaulted ceiling and en suite shower room. Bedrooms two and three share a Jack and Jill en suite shower room. The property is accessed via a driveway shared with the neighbouring barn and Wootton House. The driveway continues to the side providing parking for up to eight cars and access to the detached double width garage which has twin sets of double timber doors, power connected and eaves storage space. To the rear of the garage is a home office.
Sitting/Dining Room and Kitchen
The open plan sitting and dining rooms have a log burning stove on a raised hearth, floor to ceiling dual aspect windows, as well as a sash window and glazed doors to the rear garden. A full turn staircase leads to the first floor. The kitchen has a range of Shaker style cabinets with a combination of granite and hardwood work surfaces and an inset sink. Integrated appliances include a range cooker with extractor over, and there is space for a dishwasher.
Gardens
The gardens are a particular feature of the property. The front has been professionally landscaped and has gravelled pathways and shaped borders with mature trees and shrubs. A flagstone path leads to the entrance door. The rear garden is south east facing and is enclosed by a combination of walls and fencing. It is principally lawned with mature trees interspersed and an exposed slate outdoor entertaining area.
Situation and Schooling
Wootton has amenities including a post office, a library, doctors' surgery, men's hairdresser, four public houses/restaurants, various takeaway food shops, community centres, sports facilities, a Tesco express and a Sainsbury's local. It is also on a bus route to Bedford and Milton Keynes. Road links include a new bypass with access to the A1 and the M1.
