Wheelwrights, High Street, Barley
Step inside
On entering the property, the hallway is a welcoming reception area, with access to the ground floor accommodation and a ground floor WC with wash hand basin. Into the beautiful farmhouse style Kitchen/Breakfast Room, with exposed beams, a range of base units, granite worktops, a range cooker and butler sink, integrated dishwasher and space for fridge/freezer and tumble dryer. The room faces the front, and there is trap door access to the good sized cellar, which offers excellent storage space and light and power.
The Sitting Room is truly magnificent, the vaulted ceiling providing the framework for a beautiful room, with majestic inglenook fireplace, exposed brick chimney breast and a mezzanine landing to the first floor. There are further exposed beams, a door providing access to the outside, and glazed double doors leading into the light and airy split level study area.
Into the Dining Room, and you are met with a further grand inglenook fireplace with electric stove, exposed beams and there is a further door to the Rear Garden, and ample space for sizeable dining furniture.
There is a door from the Dining Room leading into the Utility/Shower Room, and this also leads into the ground floor third bedroom, which has two Velux windows and integral storage. The proximity of the two rooms provide the opportunity to be used as a part self contained guest facility.
The staircase from the ground floor rises to the first floor mezzanine landing, which is positioned under the vaulted ceiling and overlooks the Sitting Room. This leads to two further double bedrooms with integral storage. The Main Bedroom features a stunning hardwood fireplace, a beautiful addition to an already lovely room.
There is a large Family Bathroom comprising of roll top bath, twin "his and hers" wash hand basins, a WC and heated towel rail.
Step outside
The driveway of the property is entered via double timber gates from the High Street, leading into a beautiful and private garden area. The driveway offers parking for 5/6 cars, and leads to a large timber storage shed, and the detached annexe/double garage-the two up and over doors remain, so the annexe could easily be converted back if required, but has currently been converted into a multi purpose room, with potential use as a garden lounge and dining area, and there is a butler sink unit in the corner. There is huge potential to develop further into a fully self-contained facility.
The garden itself offers a tranquil combination of quiet seating/patio space, and an extensive lawned area with an abundance of shrubs and mature trees, with well stocked flower borders and beds. An amazing opportunity to entertain guests and family within a beautiful example of an English country garden.
Location
Barley is a picturesque village nestled in North Hertfordshire, England. This charming settlement is characterized by its quintessential English countryside appeal, with rolling hills, lush green fields, and meandering country lanes. The village itself boasts an array of traditional thatched cottages, many of which are adorned with vibrant gardens that bloom with seasonal flowers, adding bursts of color to the serene landscape.
At the heart of Barley is its historic St. Margaret of Antioch Church, a beautiful example of medieval architecture, complete with a striking tower and intricate stonework. The village green, a central feature, serves as a communal space for residents and hosts various local events and gatherings throughout the year, fostering a strong sense of community.
The village has many community activities and sports clubs, including Barley Tennis Club which has two hard courts, Barley Cricket Club which plays two Saturday teams that paly in the Cambridgeshire junior leagues, and a Sunday team for people of all abilities and ages. There is also a gardening club, and a bell ringers club! There is also a local shop, gp surgery and the Grade I listed Townhouse which hosts a variety of activities.
Barley is surrounded by scenic walking and cycling routes, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. The village pub, The Fox and Hounds, offers a cozy spot for both locals and visitors to enjoy hearty meals and local ales, often accompanied by the warmth of a crackling fire during colder months.
Despite its rural setting, Barley is conveniently located near the town of Royston, providing access to additional amenities and transport links. The village’s blend of historical charm, natural beauty, and community spirit makes it a delightful and peaceful place to live or visit.
