Summary - 4 Shingay Gate Farm Cottages, Shingay Cum Wendy SG8 0HT
6 bed 6 bath Detached
Indoor pool, stables and huge flexible living for large or multigenerational families.
Approximately 12 acres of private landscaped grounds and paddocks
A rarely available country residence set well back from the lane, this modern farmhouse-style estate sits within approximately 12 acres of private grounds. The main house offers over 8,000 sq ft of flexible accommodation across multiple wings, with eight reception rooms, six bedrooms and six bathrooms — ideal for a large or multigenerational family who value space and separation. The property’s indoor leisure complex (vaulted pool hall, sauna, gym and changing rooms) and an outdoor swimming pool create strong lifestyle appeal.
The estate includes in excess of 4,000 sq ft of outbuildings: stables, a detached barn, double garage, triple car port and storage rooms, plus paddocks, menage and secure gated access — well suited to equestrian use or a buyer seeking extensive storage and workspace. Practical modern upgrades include solar panels, a 3-phase EV fast-charging point, 3-phase electricity supply and air conditioning in the lounge and most bedrooms.
Buyers should note material running and maintenance considerations. The house is heated by an oil-fired boiler to radiators, the walls are original solid brick (assumed uninsulated), broadband speeds are very slow and the EPC is D. The grounds, outbuildings and leisure facilities will require ongoing upkeep and occasional refurbishment. Council tax is described as very expensive. The location provides convenient road and rail links to Royston and Cambridge, making commuting and access to services straightforward despite the rural setting.
