Characterful four-bedroom family home with large garden and parking.
- Grade II listed thatched cottage dating to 1592
A striking Grade II listed thatched cottage dating from 1592, formerly a village pub, now a spacious family home with four bedrooms and three reception rooms. Recent exterior renovation and maintained period features — including inglenook fireplaces, exposed beams and a historic inscribed beam — give immediate kerb appeal and long-term character.
Set on a large plot in the heart of Bluntisham, the house offers off-street parking for three cars, a cellar for substantial storage, and a south/west-facing patio that catches afternoon sun. The landscaped garden and brick outbuildings suit family life, growing space or hobby projects. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make remote working practical, while Cambridge/London commutes are feasible from this village location.
Practical points are clear and should be considered: the property is Grade II listed, which will restrict changes and may complicate modernisation or extensions. The house has just one family bathroom for four bedrooms and has low ceilings and smaller room proportions in parts, reflecting its age. Internally some fittings are rustic and dated — buyers should budget for sympathetic updating where desired.
This is a good fit for buyers who value historic character and generous outdoor space over a fully modern, open-plan interior. The combination of village location, large plot and substantial internal floor area provides scope to personalise sensitively within listed constraints.
