The Grip, Linton, Cambridge, CB21

This beautifully presented barn conversion property provides up to five bedrooms and plenty of period character. The property is part of a large Grade II Listed timber-framed and weatherboarded barn, dating originally from the early 19th century, and redeveloped around 20 years ago, with the property still displaying a variety of charming original details, including exposed timber beams throughout.
The ground floor has a light-filled open-plan sitting and dining area, with a full-height window to the front and French doors opening to the rear. The room has wooden flooring and an impressive brick-built fireplace, fitted with a woodburning stove. There is also a kitchen and breakfast area, with stylish, modern units in white to base and wall level, granite worktops and integrated appliances including a microwave, a double oven and a gas hob with an extractor fan.
The first floor has four double bedrooms and a fifth bedroom, which is a large single and could be used as a study for working from home if required. The principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, while there is also a family bathroom with an over-bath shower.

The property is located in the large village of Linton, with its range of everyday amenities, including local shops, cafés and restaurants, a library, a medical centre and a pharmacy.
