Seller Insight
"It was the sheer size of the house that first drew us to 6 Lion Farm Court," say the current owners of this luxury barn conversion in the sought-after village of Abbotsley. "The property is exceptionally versatile, particularly for multi-generational living, with bedrooms and bathrooms on both the ground floor and upstairs. This is a house that lends itself equally to everyday family life and entertaining: all five bedrooms are doubles with built-in wardrobes, and guests can have their own wing of the house and be completely self-contained. This was ideal when our grandchildren were younger and came to stay—they could make as much noise as they liked! The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living room is perfect for parties, with double French doors opening onto a fully enclosed courtyard garden to create a wonderful indoor-outdoor entertaining space."
Indeed, the private, sunny garden serves as an extension of the house during the warmer months. "The courtyard is a real suntrap, with plenty of room for a large table and chairs for al fresco dining," the owners say. "Shrubs and climbing vines add interest and screen the property, creating our own private haven. There is also space to grow vegetables, so we enjoy plenty of fresh produce from our garden. Additionally, the paving is made from non-slip epoxy, which is safe for us as we grow older and was equally perfect for our grandchildren to run around when they were little."
This is a truly modern home with all the comforts of contemporary living. "The house is always warm," say the owners, "with a ground source heat pump powering underfloor heating throughout the ground floor. It's not only a glorious feeling as you walk around the house but also very comfortable.
Other luxuries include designer showers and large baths in two of the bathrooms; and a generous double garage complete with a full-size workbench, as well as a carport.
The setting of the property also has much to recommend it. "The house is situated in the picturesque village of Abbotsley, surrounded by beautiful farmland," the owners say. "We enjoy the best of both countryside and convenience here, being a short distance from local amenities and supermarkets, with excellent links to St Neots, Bedford, and the university city of Cambridge. St Neots Train Station offers regular services to London and Gatwick Airport, while Cambridge is just a 30-minute drive away."
