Summary - Sampford Road, Radwinter, Saffron Walden CB10 2TL
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Spacious five-bedroom family home with extensive private grounds.
Grade II listed period house with many original features
A rare Grade II listed period house in an elevated position, this five-bedroom cottage offers substantial family accommodation across approximately 2,375 sq ft. The property retains many original features — exposed timbers, inglenook fireplace with log burner, brick flooring and mullion windows — creating a warm, characterful interior and generous reception rooms for everyday family life.
Set within mature landscaped grounds of about 0.8 acre, the grounds provide private lawns, terraces for outside dining and a variety of outbuildings including a double garage, barn and stable block. These outbuildings offer practical storage and scope for conversion subject to planning and listed-building consents, making the plot attractive for owners seeking additional space or a small home business (permissions required).
Practical considerations: the house uses a Rayburn range integrated with a Grant oil-fired boiler for heating, and its listed status will mean repair, maintenance and any alterations need specialist attention and approvals. Broadband is slow and mobile signal average; this is a rural hamlet location with very low crime but limited local services. There is a medium flood risk in the area and council tax is described as quite expensive, both factors buyers should investigate.
Overall this property suits buyers looking for an established family home in a peaceful countryside setting who value historic character and generous private grounds. It will particularly appeal to purchasers prepared to manage listed-building responsibilities and potential upgrade work (heating, connectivity, or selective modernisation) to tailor the house to contemporary family living.
