Property for sale - Bridgefoot House is an imposing Grade II listed property with a fascinating history. Initially designed by William Thomas Nash, a renowned architect, auctioneer and surveyor, it was built circa 1836 and first occupied under the name Buntingford Union Workhouse around 1837. The Union asylum housed up to 120 inmates and is notably the birthplace of sculptor Reg Butler, whose parents were the master and Matron in 1913.

Property for sale - We are calling all renovators, self-builders, those who “love a project”! This chain-free property offers the opportunity to create a bespoke home. Habitat is a four-bedroom bungalow and the perfect renovation project. It’s a solid mature property ready to be modernised. Located at the top of a private driveway, a path leads you just metres from the stunning Old Rectory, to Buckland’s church and onto beautiful countryside with wonderful walks right on your doorstep. The village of Buckland is just 3 miles from Buntingford and 5 miles from Royston, both of which have high street shops, restaurants, supermarkets, and Royston offers fast trains to London and Cambridge. Years ago, planning was approved for a larger porch, a kitchen, and a detached garage. Only the porch has been extended, however these initial works mean that planning for the garage and kitchen is still in progress. Enter Habitat’s grand covered porch, which gives you shelter from the elements while being bright and welcoming. The suspended roof light continues the sense of light and space in the entrance hall, which provides plenty of space to greet guests. To the left, you have a full-height sitting room where French doors lead to a conservatory overlooking the garden and basking in the midday sun. This reception room is a fantastic size and the full-height ceiling has allowed a small mezzanine to be created where a study area sits next to a storage cupboard and access to the mezzanine. Returning through the hall, you enter the dining room with its wood-burning stove and sitting area. Just beyond, the kitchen is modern and bright, with a dual view over the garage and the driveway. On the side of the property there is a rear door leading to a covered area, a garage and a garden shed. The large boiler cupboard is right opposite the kitchen and there is further storage in the corridor leading to the family bathroom and two bedrooms on this side. The four bedrooms are located at the rear of the bungalow, overlooking the lawn and the rustic barn belonging to the neighbouring farm. The bedrooms have large windows, built-in drawers and wardrobes and are generally in good condition. There is a short corridor leading to the hall, then two more bedrooms on the other side, which share a shower room. The master bedroom at the back offers an excellent view over the sunny terrace. Exit Habitat’s driveway provides excellent parking space, and could even be transformed to create a larger garden if you wish. Parking to the right in front of the detached garage, there is a gate leading to a covered external area at the back door, perfect for keeping logs dry, hanging laundry or housing a rabbit hutch. The single garage has plenty of storage space and there is a small outbuilding housing the oil tank. The rear lawn is bordered by an annex building to the right, which could easily be hidden by thoughtful planting, and at the back, the neighbour’s barn runs along the boundary, which has rustic charm with red bricks and traditional clay tiles below. Again, landscaping is needed to make the most of this area, although it lends itself to becoming a more functional part of the garden with space for a washing line and a vegetable plot. Around the corner, you’ll find the sunniest spot in the garden and the raised terrace where seating and the conservatory enjoy the sun. The tall hedges provide wind shelter, but could tolerate a little mowing, creating a larger lawn. As you pass the terrace, there is a large established shrub border to your left at the front and a good-sized lawn. Location Tucked away in a quiet private driveway off the main road, this bungalow is a true hidden gem—a peaceful and secluded spot that still offers the convenience of good transport links. It is just over 3 miles to Buntingford and under 5 miles to Royston, where you’ll find high street shops, restaurants, a major supermarket, and fast trains to London and Cambridge.
