Summary - ICKLETON PLACE BROOKHAMPTON STREET ICKLETON SAFFRON WALDEN CB10 1SP
7 bed 4 bath Detached
Stately 7-bedroom country house with tennis court, pond and private borehole.
Approximately 3.07 acres of landscaped grounds and formal gardens
An impressive Georgian Revival country house set in about 3.07 acres, this seven-bedroom detached residence combines generous period proportions with high-spec contemporary fittings. The heart of the home is a fully fitted Smallbone kitchen/breakfast room and Crittall-box extension that flood the living spaces with light, while multiple reception rooms, a principal suite with split-level en suite and abundant built-in storage suit large or multigenerational families.
Outside, mature landscaping and formal gardens are maintained by a private borehole and automated irrigation system, surrounding a pond, fountain and a 17-metre rill that leads to a large entertaining terrace. Practical outbuildings include a triple garage, covered carport, bike store, versatile outbuilding, greenhouse, chicken run, professionally fenced tennis court with astro turf, outdoor kitchen and a tiled hot tub — ideal for sport, hobby gardeners and alfresco entertaining.
This is a rural village location with very low crime, fast broadband and good local schools; mainline rail at Great Chesterford and Audley End and road links to the M11/Stanstead make commuting feasible. The property will suit families seeking space and privacy, or buyers wanting a lifestyle estate close to Saffron Walden and Cambridge.
Potential purchasers should note the scale: a large house and extensive grounds bring ongoing upkeep and running costs. Council tax is very expensive. Mobile signal is average in this area. The house presents minimal flooding risk and is offered freehold, but the maintenance of formal features, heating, irrigation and leisure installations will require commitment and budget.
