Bury Hill, Potton

Tucked away in a peaceful corner of Potton, at the top of Bury Hill, is this rarely available original show home in the sought-after Stewart Croft.
Before being converted in the late 1980s from old barns, this small development of just 16 homes was formerly Crossroad Farm. While the area has evolved over the years, it remains surrounded by tranquil countryside and protected areas whilst being within walking distance of local amenities and Potton’s charming, town square.
This characterful and homely property offers two separate reception rooms, providing versatile living spaces and two bathrooms and a downstairs cloakroom, ideal for accommodating family, guests or grandchildren. Upstairs, multiple well-positioned Velux windows flood the rooms with natural light.
Outside, you have the choice of relaxing in your own private, south-west facing enclosed garden or enjoying the beautifully maintained shared landscaped gardens. There’s plenty of space to entertain family and friends, or perhaps enjoy a summer barbecue and get to know the neighbours.
Off road Parking is available for one vehicle directly opposite the property, with additional visitor spaces nearby, adding to the practicality of this delightful home.
Potton is a historic market town with a fantastic range of amenities, including a doctors’ surgery, schools, nurseries, convenience stores, butchers, newsagents, two golf courses and a variety of eateries, takeaways and public houses. The town is also home to a beautiful church dating back almost 1,000 years.
For commuters, the location is ideally placed, with train stations in Sandy, 3 miles away and Biggleswade, 4 miles away offering direct routes into London St Pancras. There is also easy access to the A1, M1, M11 and M25, with two major London airports within around an hour.
A truly unique home in a peaceful yet convenient location. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate all this property has to offer.

**A Unique Setting with Shared Freehold Ownership Situated within a beautifully landscaped former farm development of just 16 individual homes, this property benefits from a peaceful, secluded, established community where homeowners collectively own the freehold. The annual service charge is currently £720 per annum (£60 per month), covering the maintenance and repairs of communal areas, landscaped gardens, shared lighting, insurance and other communal expenditure. The residents themselves oversee the management of the development and its expenditure, giving homeowners a direct interest in how funds are allocated and the surroundings maintained. Over almost 30 years, the monthly service charge has risen by a total of just £30 per month, to its present level of £60 per month, reflecting a long history of careful financial management by the residents themselves. This arrangement helps preserve the attractive surroundings and distinctive character of the development.
