Tucked away in a private enclave on the historic grounds of Old Linslade Manor in Leighton Buzzard is this striking nineteenth-century barn conversion which seamlessly blends rich heritage with absolute tranquillity. Occupying a prime corner position within an exclusive residential mews, this unique freehold home offers a rare lifestyle opportunity. Offered with no upper chain, this unique freehold home delivers an impressive footprint of over 1,400 square feet. The highly versatile layout currently comprises three reception rooms, a separate kitchen, two double bedrooms, and two private en-suite bathrooms, with the distinct potential to easily configure a third bedroom or a dedicated home office. Rich in character, the development originally dates back to the nineteenth century when it served as a working dairy barn for the neighbouring manor farm. Sympathetically converted in the mid-1990s, the building's agricultural heritage is still evident today, from the generous footprint of the ground floor living spaces to the impressive timber framing preserved upstairs beneath the vaulted ceilings. The location is defined by its exceptional natural surroundings and seamless connectivity. The beautifully manicured communal grounds roll gently down to a picturesque, quiet stretch of the Grand Union Canal, placing scenic waterside walks and towpaths directly on the doorstep. Manor Court is framed by ancient woodland, being just a short walk from the hundreds of acres of lakes, pine forests, and trails within Rushmere and Stockgrove Country Parks. While remarkably rural in feel, the home remains highly connected, situated just minutes from Leighton Buzzard town centre and the mainline station, which provides a direct link to London Euston in 32 minutes. Inside, the property balances rich architectural detail with a highly social, flowing layout. The ground floor features a generous, light-filled living room with sliding doors opening into a bright sunroom that overlooks and allows direct access to the garden, seamlessly blending the indoor and outdoor space. A separate dining room adds superb versatility to the ground floor, offering the flexibility to serve as a home office, a snug, or a third bedroom if required. The ground floor is completed by a well-appointed kitchen with ample storage and a practical guest cloakroom. On the first floor, the barn’s structural heritage is fully realized with vaulted ceilings and beautifully presented timber framing. Both bedrooms are good sized doubles, and both feature their own private en-suite bathrooms, offering a luxurious arrangement for residents and guests alike. Externally, the property enjoys its own private, beautifully landscaped rear garden, featuring a mix of lawn and patio areas designed for low-maintenance outdoor living and dining. Beyond the private garden, residents have full access to the expansive park-like communal grounds fronting the canal. Practicality is equally well-catered for with a single garage situated en-bloc alongside an allocated parking space. Council Tax Band: E Charges: Approximately £1800 per year to maintain communal areas and grounds.
