Hardwicke Farm is believed to date from 1810 and is a beautiful example of the Georgian period, which is typically renowned for its well-proportioned rooms and high ceilings. Since purchasing the property, the present owners have carried out comprehensive improvements to the property to an exceptionally high standard, with care being taken to retain the period features which include cornicing, ceiling
roses, deep skirtings, dado rails and marble fireplaces. The versatile accommodation is immaculately presented throughout and extends to an impressive and tremendously
versatile 7,290 sq ft (678 sq m), to include an independent 2 bedroom Annexe and Outbuildings extending to a further
4,219 sq ft (392 sq m).

Historical Note Magnificent Grade II listed Barn dating from circa 1844 with small kitchen and WCs. Constructed with local red brick under a hipped slate roof with 6 bays, 2 high double entry’s with elliptical arches to the south facing elevation and geometric ventilation holes. Two adjacent rows of contemporary stables also of red brick under slate roofs, form the east and west boundaries to a central courtyard.

Great Gransden is an attractive and popular village situated approximately 13 miles west of Cambridge and 12 miles south-east of Huntingdon. Local facilities include a primary
school, post office, public house and general store together with bowls and tennis clubs. Nearby, Cambridge is not only world renowned for its academic achievements, but has also become a ‘high tech’ and ‘bio tech’ hub with the University Research and Development Laboratories, internationally renowned Cambridge Science Park and Addenbrooke’s Hospital/Biomedical Campus one of the largest centres of health, science and medical research in Europe. The city also provides an attractive combination of ancient and modern buildings, colleges, winding lanes, the tree-lined river Cam and extensive shopping facilities, together with an excellent choice of independent schools.

Road and rail communications are good with the A428 within about 3 miles providing links with the A1 to the west and the M11 to the east and there is a mainline railway station at St Neots with services to London’s King’s Cross in about 40 minutes.
