Black Barn is one of only eight unique properties built to a very high standard by renowned developers, Pelham Structures.

The current owners bought this beautiful home about 12 years ago having fallen in love with the huge appeal and free-flowing layout of the property. The oak framed construction is evident throughout with open studwork, vaulted ceilings with exposed timbers, staircase and floorboards with works perfectly with all the benefits of a modern home. It is a superb blend of character and charm along with thoughtfully designed family living space.

There is a stunning entrance hall with full-height windows to the front and galleried landing over which leads to the triple aspect drawing room with impressive brick fireplace, a study which can be shut off by pocket doors, a sitting/family room along with a beautiful kitchen/breakfast/diner with a central island. There is an extensive range of wall and base units, with granite worksurfaces, Travertine tiling, a Britannia 6 burner cooking range with extractor and a Fisher & Paykel fridge freezer. A utility room, a fourth bedroom (could also be used as a playroom or similar) and a cloakroom complete the ground floor.

On the first floor are three large double bedrooms, a dressing room to the principal bedroom, and three bathrooms (two en-suite). All the bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and two have Juliet balconies overlooking the garden.

Black Barn is accessed over a shared driveway giving access to the two- bay cart lodge and providing parking for additional cars. There is a pedestrian door from the cart lodge opening through to the garden and space for secure bin and bicycle storage etc. The west-facing gardens are mainly laid to lawn with established tree and shrub planting. There is a secluded paved terrace, ideal for al-fresco dining etc as well as a further raised terrace with a pergola over. The outside areas work perfectly with the house itself with French doors from all the reception rooms offering wonderful, free-flowing entertaining space. There are also two garden sheds, perfect for garden furniture and machinery etc.

The property is located in a tucked away position in a small, exclusive development of just 8 houses built around 12 years ago. Beech Tree Lane is situated close to the centre of this highly regarded and very-well served village with a wealth of local amenities including a popular pub/restaurant, village shop and post office, primary school and railway station. The village is in the catchment area for Sawston Village College for secondary schooling. For those needing to commute there is a railway station on the outskirts of the village with a direct rail service to London Liverpool Street, as well as to Cambridge. The M11 (both N&S) is only a short drive away giving access to London, Stansted Airport and the North.
