Tucked away off the highly regarded Northgate Lane in the picturesque village of Linton, this striking period residence stands proudly within a substantial and beautifully mature plot, offering both privacy and scope for future extension (subject to planning). Approached via a charming bridge crossing a shallow brook, the home immediately evokes a sense of character and tranquillity, framed by well-kept lawns, established planting, and an abundance of greenery that wraps gently around the property.

Behind its distinctive façade - complete with leaded windows, timber detailing, lies a home rich in space, charm, and flexibility. Extending to approximately 2400 sq.ft., the accommodation unfolds across two well-balanced floors, blending classic architectural features with the proportions expected of a generous family home.

A welcoming entrance hall, defined by an impressive split-staircase and galleried landing above, forms the heart of the ground floor. From here, several reception rooms radiate outwards, including a bright and comfortable lounge, a cosy sitting room, and a separate snug ideal for quieter relaxation or home working. The formal dining room sits conveniently between the living spaces and the expansive kitchen, creating a wonderful flow for both da-to-day living and entertaining.

The kitchen itself is a standout feature – well-appointed with extensive cabinetry, granite work surfaces, a range cooker, and ample natural light overlooking the gardens. A practical utility room and ground-floor WC further enhance the home’s functionality.

Upstairs, the generous landing provides access to four well-proportioned double bedrooms, each enjoying leafy views of the surrounding gardens. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the remaining rooms are served by a spacious family bathroom featuring both bath and separate shower.

The gardens positioned to the front, side and rear, are a true highlight. Mature trees, lush borders, and sweeping lawns create a sense of seclusion and natural beauty rarely found so close to the village centre. The size of the plot offers remarkable potential to extend or reconfigure the home to suit changing needs, subject to the appropriate permissions. The property is approached via a private driveway which leads to a detached garage providing secure parking for several vehicles. The property also offers separate outside store located under the kitchen.
