Seller Insight
The Old Stables is an utterly charming home, tucked away within a hidden courtyard setting in the bustling ancient market town of Potton. It has been a much-loved home for the current owners for the past ten years.

"Built in the 1800s, The Old Stables once formed part of a sizeable public house, complete with its own brewery and stabling. Many years ago, it was thoughtfully converted into three individual dwellings, centred around a picturesque courtyard.

We found the history of The Old Stables absolutely fascinating and, although the property was in reasonable condition, we welcomed the challenge of restoring and enhancing it to create a truly special home. Over the years we have systematically and meticulously improved our home, introducing modern comforts suited to contemporary living whilst ensuring that its unique history and character remain intact and, indeed, enhanced. Today, our home is comfortable, welcoming and highly practical, while still retaining all the charm of its past."

"One of our favourite features is the inglenook fireplace with its wood-burning stove. It is loved by everyone, particularly on cold winter days. Entertaining is always a pleasure here, with the well-proportioned kitchen/diner providing the perfect setting for gatherings, complemented by a generous patio and beautiful enclosed walled garden."

"Potton has an outstanding sense of community with numerous clubs, societies and activities catering for all interests. Sporting opportunities are plentiful, with an established golf course just a short distance away. The town also boasts an excellent choice of cafés, restaurants and traditional pubs, alongside an independent baker, butcher and a range of other local shops, with an outstanding farm shop located nearby."

"Excellent transport links add to the appeal, with the mainline station at nearby Sandy providing fast connections into London and beyond, while the surrounding road network continues to improve. Encircled by open countryside, there are many delightful walks directly from the doorstep, and the historic city of Cambridge is within easy reach."

"We have adored living in such an interesting, vibrant town with its fascinating history. However, it is time for our next adventure and challenge, and we wish the new owners of The Old Stables as much happiness and contentment as we have experienced here."
