Description

Old Barn enjoys a wonderfully private setting in the sought-after village of Wyddial, surrounded by rolling Hertfordshire countryside. This impressive barn conversion offers over 2,000 sq ft of character-filled accommodation, combining period charm with modern family living.
A pathway through mature gardens leads to the property, where a double garage and driveway provide ample parking. Inside, a striking double-height entrance hall with exposed beams and a galleried landing immediately showcases the character and scale of the original barn.
The generous sitting room centres around an inglenook fireplace with log burner and flows into a timber-framed garden room overlooking the grounds. A spacious kitchen/breakfast room and separate dining room provide excellent space for family life and entertaining alike.
Upstairs are four double bedrooms arranged around the gallery landing, including a principal suite with en suite bathroom. Outside, the beautifully established gardens create a peaceful retreat, with mature planting, a pond, water feature and secluded secret garden.
Offering a true village lifestyle with countryside walks on the doorstep, this detached character home enjoys easy access to Buntingford, Royston and Cambridge, with nearby mainline stations providing links into London.
