Blackbird House one of those period homes that was licenced as a 'Beer House' for some of its history. This was known as The Three Blackbirds or just The Blackbirds. Built in circa 1740 and was licensed in 1822. Obviously it has had many occupants over the years with many interesting stories.
With the drinking Inn closing its doors in 1914 it then became a private dwelling with many homeowners upgrading the property over the years, including the Scouts group who used the large room as a meeting point.
This period home is a large entertaining family space and has been improved by the current owners to include a bespoke kitchen by Loline. The dining room is a large useable room and great for entertaining. The lounge is impressive in size with a log burner. There is a downstairs cloakroom. Off the dining room is a good size cellar with barrel roof and extractor. Upstairs provides two bedrooms, a bathroom and shower room on the first floor and a further two bedrooms on the 2nd floor.
Outside there is an impressive L-shaped barn that is now an office/music room, garage and storage space. This is large enough to consider a self contained one bedroom annex (subject to planning) and a purchaser should make their own enquiries to Central Beds. The remainder of the garden is mainly laid to lawn, a large patio for entertaining and lots of off road parking.
The driveway is owned by the sellers but the house to the rear has right of access to their property.
Viewings are arranged with the clients sole agent Kennedy & Co.
