PROPERTY DETAILS

Offered with no onward chain, The Granary is a beautifully converted and extended Grade II listed home, originally dating back to the late 17th century. Tucked away at the end of a long, tree-lined driveway on the Saffron Walden side of Linton, the property has been sympathetically restored and thoughtfully improved over the past twenty-five years, blending timeless character with modern comfort. The result is a truly special home that feels full of history yet perfectly suited to contemporary living.

The extended hallway provides a warm and welcoming entrance, leading into a spacious and characterful living room. Exposed beams, solid timbers and a striking brick fireplace with wood-burning stove create an inviting heart to the home, perfect for relaxing evenings. Beyond, a light-filled sun room links the main house with the converted outbuilding, now forming a wonderful open-plan kitchen and dining area. This space combines practicality and charm, ideal for family gatherings or entertaining, with a door opening directly onto the garden.

The ground floor layout offers impressive flexibility, with two comfortable bedrooms, one benefiting from an en-suite shower room, and a separate wet room that provides easy access for those with mobility needs. There is also scope to adapt this space to include a bath if desired, offering even greater versatility. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a stunning space with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and extensive fitted wardrobes, complemented by a modern en-suite shower room.

One of The Granary’s greatest strengths is its versatility. With two kitchens, adaptable living areas and a layout that naturally separates different sections of the home, it offers excellent potential for multi-generational living. Whether accommodating family members, creating a self-contained guest suite, or simply enjoying a flexible lifestyle, the home provides countless possibilities without compromising comfort or privacy.

Outside, the property enjoys a peaceful and picturesque setting. A long gravelled driveway, shared with two neighbour, is bordered by mature trees and hedging and leads to a powered double garage with an electric up and over door, along with off-road parking. There are two garden areas, both private and well enclosed. The main garden faces southwest and enjoys plenty of afternoon and evening sunshine, making it a wonderful space for outdoor dining or quiet relaxation, surrounded by lawns, established shrubs and open countryside views.

The Granary lies on Long Lane, a quiet road on the Saffron Walden side of Linton, combining the charm of a rural setting with the convenience of village living. Linton itself offers a wonderful range of local amenities, including independent shops, pubs, cafes and the highly regarded Linton Village College. Excellent transport links provide easy access to both Cambridge and Saffron Walden, making this an ideal home for anyone seeking space, history and tranquillity within reach of the city.
