***gorgeous timber framed grade two listed character home within the heart of this georgian market town***
Formerly 'The Sun Inn', after which the street is named, this beautiful property is considered to be the oldest surviving building in Potton and is thought to date back to 1668, so this really is an incredible opportunity to own a piece of Potton's history!
Listed by the former Ministry Of Works in January 1952 as Grade Two, of special interest and when you step over the threshold, it's clear just how special a building this really is. But despite it;s age and character, one of the most surprising elements is just how spacious and practical this home is, with almost 2300 sqft of accommodation providing four double bedrooms, two first floor bathrooms, three large separate reception rooms (one with an extremely impressive inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove), a large open plan kitchen/ breakfast room and a unique 'triple apexed' conservatory over looking the part walled gardens.
In addition to the main accommodation, you also have two separate cellars, which offer tremendous potential for conversion and could be perfect as a cinema/ games room, gym or office (subject to relevant consents).
This historic building sits on a plot of 0.14 acres and offers an enclosed and private garden of approximately 100' in length, with access to the secure gated driveway, providing off road parking for two cars and leading to the detached garage (measuring 20'7 x 8'7).
If it's character, charm and a sense of quirkiness you're looking for, but combined with a practical and versatile layout (definitely not a combination you find every day!) then this really is the home for you.
