SELLER INSIGHT

This quiet lane on the edge of the picturesque, traditional, village of Hamerton is the setting for this stunning barn conversion.

Spacious Fig Tree Barn has an abundance of character with its vaulted ceilings and stunning ‘A’ frame exposed trusses offering an ambient atmosphere of space and light whilst, at the same time, this beautiful home enjoys the benefits, practicalities and luxuries of modern day living. The clever design offers the convenience of being on one level with its, sizeable, large open kitchen dining and living space, whilst the main living space houses a lovely wood burner. Such a flexible layout is ideal when the owners are entertaining friends and family.

The courtyard garden is enclosed and secure and has been cleverly landscape to meld in with the design of the house, providing the very best for indoor/outdoor living. This special area enjoys sun from first thing in the morning through to the evening giving a Mediterranean atmosphere which becomes a very popular space when the owners are entertaining, whatever the occasion. In addition, outhouses provide plenty of storage and a fully functional, recently converted office for home working, offering clear demarcation between home and work life. Furthermore, this office presents a potential opportunity to run a business, with ample parking available.

It is so peaceful and tranquil here with so many lovely walks direct from the house yet there is a wealth of amenities close at hand. The main line station at Huntingdon provides a quick and efficient service into a choice of stations within the capital and, also, direct to Gatwick Airport. The A1 is very convenient to access, as is the newly updated A14. The beautiful city of Cambridge is so easy to visit for its history, fabulous architecture, excellent shopping and a special city in which to wander. The local area has many interesting places to visit, not least of which is a small well-run zoo.

This has been an outstanding home for the owners who have no hesitation in stating that whoever decides to live here will experience an exceptional quality of life.*
