Baldwin House is an impressive Grade II* listed 15th century manor house with later 16th, 17th and 18th additions, which is constructed on a former moated site, known to have been associated with the Baldwin family in the 13th century. Many of the ground floor cross-framed casements windows still retain much of the original glass, whilst the original first floor sills to the 15th century windows have been preserved. The property is particularly noteworthy for its mouldings, which are connected with the heraldic devices of the Baldwin family.
Period detailing is very prominent and yet the property provides a charming, warm and inviting 5 bedroom family house, with 1 bedroom, self-contained annexe and many useful outbuildings, all within a beautiful setting approaching 4 acres.
Swaffham Prior is a small, picturesque village with a primary school and public house. It lies to the north east of the University City of Cambridge and to the west of the horse racing town of Newmarket.
The nearby village of Burwell offers a good range of day to day amenities with more extensive shopping facilities, schools and sporting activities available at both Newmarket and Cambridge.
The property is also well placed for access to the A14, which provides links to the M11 to the south and the A1 to the north.
