Step into a characterful period cottage set in peaceful Horseheath village. Flint Cottage offers two double bedrooms, a cosy beam-lined sitting room and a country-style kitchen, all arranged over a compact 452 sq ft. The private garden with decking, lawn and a children's treehouse adds usable outdoor space rarely found at this size.
This home suits first-time buyers seeking charm and manageable running costs. The property is freehold, in Tax Band B, and benefits from double glazing fitted after 2002 and broadband up to 80 Mbps. Village amenities are within walking distance, and Cambridge is about 13 miles away for commuting or leisure.
There are some practical considerations: the house uses oil-fired central heating, the construction details indicate timber framing with solid brick walls and likely no cavity insulation, and there is a neighbour right of access to the rear. The small overall footprint means limited internal storage and compact rooms; buyers should allow for modernisation and insulation improvements if desired.
Overall, Flint Cottage is an attractive, affordable entry into village living with genuine character and a pretty garden. It will reward buyers who value period detail and are prepared to update heating and insulation to suit modern standards.
