Property Insight
Set within a private cluster of just four homes off London Road, this detached bungalow offers single-storey living in a quiet, tucked-away position on the edge of the sought-after village of Barley. Handsome brick elevations under a pantiled roof give it a settled, established feel, while the block-paved frontage provides driveway parking for two cars alongside an integral garage. Well-built in 1987 and presented in good order and décor throughout, the home is comfortable to move straight into. It is offered with No Upward Chain, making for a straightforward and stress-free purchase.
A part-glazed front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall that connects the accommodation and gives access to the loft. The heart of the home is a generous lounge/dining room, extending over twenty feet in length and dual-purpose by design, with a brick fireplace as its focal point, fitted bookshelves and cabinetry to one side, and sliding patio doors framing and opening onto the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with high-quality units and Corian worktops, a built-in double oven, hob and fridge, with a window over the sink and room for a breakfast table. A separate utility room with matching units and worktops, fridge-freezer, washer-dryer and sink, plus a cloakroom and separate WC, adds everyday practicality.
Two comfortable bedrooms sit at the other end of the bungalow - the principal a large double with windows overlooking the rear garden, the second a versatile single or study, both with large built-in wardrobes - with a family bathroom close by. Outside, the beautiful walled rear garden is the standout: A private, established space laid mainly to lawn with mature planting, a paved seating area, an arched timber gate set into old brick and flint walls and a small lean-to greenhouse.
Oil-fired central heating serves all rooms. There is an ample garage with space for a workbench and storage, plus good storage space in the loft.
This is a rare opportunity to secure single-storey village living in a desirable location in Barley.

Location – Barley
Barley is a north Hertfordshire village within easy reach of Royston, Saffron Walden and Cambridge. Unlike most villages of its size it has a genuine range of amenities, including a village shop, doctors' surgery, historic Town House, which serves as the village hall, church, primary school, riding school, recreation ground, and cricket ground. There are two village pubs, one of which is the Fox & Hounds, a recently renovated pub and restaurant drawing visitors from miles around, already nominated for a Michelin star and voted among the top 50 gastropubs in the country. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside while remaining well placed for national road and rail networks, making it a practical choice for commuters. Royston station is around 12 minutes away by car, with regular services to London Kings Cross taking as little as 39 minutes and to Cambridge 16 minutes. The M11, A14, A10 and A1 are all close by, and Stansted airport is around 35 minutes away by car.
