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.

Property information from this agent

Places of interest

    Starting out with solely an office in Sandy, Kennedy & Company instantly had a huge impact on the property market, and immediately managed to establish themselves as a wise choice when trying to sell property in the area. The Sandy office enjoyed immense success and gained a large share of the property market, which remains the same today. Record sales, fantastic customer feedback and repeat business saw Darryl branch out and open another Kennedy & Co office in the nearby market town of Potton. Armed with estate agency experience, excellent marketing tools and enthusiastic staff, the branch went from strength to strength, and has seen off local competition from other estate agencies to remain the number one choice to sell or let property in the Potton area. Back in 2007, Kennedy & Company were rewarded due their consistent professional pro-active approach to estate agency with an invited full membership to the Guild of Professional Estate Agents. It was a huge compliment to the firm to be asked to be a part of the Guild, and they remain the only estate agent members in Sandy today with access to their property website, and an associated office in Park Lane, London. As your chosen estate agent, Kennedy & Company can offer 24 hour marketing online using all of the leading property websites, plus weekly local newspaper advertising with four full pages in the highly distributed newspaper, along with full colour details, prominent window displays and fully accompanied viewings with next day vendor feedback. Unlike many of the local estate agents, they do not charge any ‘up-front’ or marketing pack costs, simply a very competitive rate which is calculated on the final selling price of your home, not your initial asking price.  The busy Sandy office is open seven days a week, allowing the hugely motivated sales team to arrange and accompany viewings at every possible opportunity, whilst being on hand at all times to deal with incoming enquiries. Kennedy & Company’s number one priority as your estate agent is to achieve the best possible selling price within the shortest period of time, with the minimum amount of inconvenience and stress to their clients.  The ever-expanding and forward thinking company also has a dedicated lettings department within the Potton office. Along with very competitive rates, comprehensive marketing online and in the local newspaper, they will provide the perfect choice for any landlord looking for an experienced team to let and manage their properties.
