Summary - CHURCH GREEN COTTAGE CHURCH GREEN HINXTON SAFFRON WALDEN CB10 1RA
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large historic village home with annexe and generous garden.
Grade II listed 17th-century thatched cottage with period features
Set in the heart of Hinxton, Church Green Cottage is a Grade II listed thatched home dating from the 17th century. The house combines traditional character—exposed beams, inglenook fireplace and herringbone floors—with substantial living space across nearly 3,000 sq ft and a mature plot of around one-third acre. A detached double garage with an annexe and the historic Fire Engine House add flexibility for guests, home-working or storage.
The layout suits a family seeking character and space: an open-plan kitchen/family room, formal dining and multiple reception rooms on the ground floor, four bedrooms on the first floor and recently upgraded bathrooms with underfloor heating in the family bathroom. The annexe provides ancillary accommodation with its own kitchen and first-floor living/shower room, useful for multi-generational living or rental potential.
Important practical points: as a Grade II listed thatched property, any alterations or maintenance (including thatch and external pargetting) will require listed-building consent and specialist contractors. Council tax is high (main house Band G) and the cottage is EPC exempt. Broadband is excellent and stations to Cambridge and London are within a short drive, supporting commuting.
This is an appealing village home for buyers who value period character, generous indoor/outdoor space and historic features, and who are comfortable managing the responsibilities and costs that accompany listed thatched properties.
