Situated in the heart of Great Chishill, just a stone's throw from the village church and pub, this spacious open-plan barn conversion offers period living with modern comfort. Originally part of Rectory Farm, it was purchased by the current owners in 1981 and transformed from agricultural use into a family home. 'We worked with architects and builders for two years and moved in during May of 1983, the day before our younger child's third birthday. The conversion was carried out to a very high standard, giving us a modern home with wonderful, original features.' Part of the house is single-storey, featuring high ceilings and exposed beams. It includes a very spacious family/dining room that leads into an equally large living room with a wood burner. A wooden staircase overlooking the living room provides access to a snug area that can serve as a TV room or study. 'Two of the bedrooms are located in the three-storey central wing, one of which has an en suite. They are extremely spacious and offer magnificent views over the fields.' Additionally, there are two further bedrooms and a bathroom in the section of the barn that was developed in 1997. 'This area is accessed by a separate wooden staircase and is used by our daughter and her family when they visit. Its complete separation from the main part of the house makes it ideal for guests.' The fifth bedroom, which has an en suite, is located beyond the living room and serves as a perfect guest room.'With the property facing away from the road and all the windows at the rear, it is extremely private inside and out.''Outside, the garden features a patio area, a lawn, and a variety of mature borders, as well as a small barn currently used as a workshop.''The bedrooms in the central wing are extremely spacious, with magnificent views over the fields the sunsets here are magnificent.''The house is very versatile; over the years, as our family's needs changed, we adapted the use of various rooms The whole property is great for entertaining, whether using the open-plan kitchen/dining room for dinner parties or the garden for summer gatherings.''We have very pleasant neighbours, and the village is extremely welcoming.' 'The village hall hosts various clubs and groups, while the playing fields accommodate the village's football and cricket teams.'Village Information
Nestled in a charming English parish village at the southernmost tip of Cambridgeshire, Great Chishill lies between the Hertfordshire village of Barley and the Essex village of Chrishall, about 4 miles east of the bustling market town of Royston, 8 miles from the historic Saffron Walden, and 15 miles from the renowned city of Cambridge. The village is home to many picturesque houses, a striking mill dating back to 1592, and the inviting Pheasant public house, known for its welcoming atmosphere, traditional fare, and fine selection of wines and ales. Notably, it is also the highest pub in Cambridgeshire. Great Chishill offers plenty of activities, including the Great Chishill Cycle Club, bowls, and bell ringing at the beautiful Grade II listed St Swithun's church. The village's proximity to Royston provides access to additional amenities such as a mainline train station with regular fast services to both Cambridge and London Kings Cross, as well as a leisure centre, sports clubs, dentists, doctors' surgeries, and well-regarded schools. The A1(M) and M11 are within a 15-minute drive via the A10/A505, and both London Stansted and Luton Airports are just 30 minutes away.Agents Notes
