Summary - BARTON HOUSE HIGH STREET LITTLEBURY SAFFRON WALDEN CB11 4TD
3 bed 1 bath Cottage
Characterful three-bedroom cottage in the heart of Littlebury village.
Grade II listed cottage with strong period features
Barton House is a charming Grade II listed cottage set on High Street in Littlebury, offering generous, characterful living across three bedrooms and circa 1,255 sq ft. Exposed timbers, a brick fireplace with log burner and sash windows give the home strong period appeal and a warm, village-centre presence. The private, walled rear garden and versatile lean-to/utility space extend everyday practicality for family life.
The layout is deceptively spacious with a roomy reception, fitted kitchen with breakfast bar and an upstairs family bathroom. Practical positives include freehold tenure, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — helpful for remote working — and easy access to nearby schools and local amenities on the High Street.
Buyers should be aware this is a listed building: Grade II status will restrict alterations and likely add cost and delay to any structural or aesthetic works. The property has one bathroom and a small plot, so families wanting larger gardens or multiple bathrooms may need to adapt the layout. Council tax is above average.
Overall the house is well suited to buyers seeking a character-filled village home with scope for sympathetic updating rather than wholesale redevelopment. It will particularly suit those who value historic features and village living but understand the responsibilities and constraints that come with listed ownership.
