Summary - COTTENHAM COURT 9 HIGH STREET COTTENHAM CAMBRIDGE CB24 8GG
2 bed 1 bath Terraced Bungalow
Two-bed over-60s home with patio garden and parking near village amenities.
Purpose-built over-60s terraced bungalow, easy single-storey living
A purpose-built two-bedroom terraced bungalow in a quiet retirement development on Cottenham High Street, designed for the over-60s. The layout includes a large lounge/diner with garden access, two double bedrooms (one with built-in wardrobe) and a wetroom with Mira electric shower—offering low-step, easy-living accommodation. The kitchen is fitted with an integrated oven and hob, Bosch washing machine and fridge/freezer. A 3-year-old Vaillant boiler and double glazing help with running costs; the property has an EPC C.
Outside, the private rear garden is low-maintenance with a patio and timber shed. Off-street parking is available within the development’s private area, and the bungalow sits close to Cottenham’s High Street amenities, regular bus links to Cambridge and Ely, and local healthcare and leisure facilities—convenient for active retirees.
This is a leasehold retirement property with an original 125-year lease from 1998 (about 98 years remaining). Prospective buyers should note an annual service charge (documents state either £2,589 or listed £3,010 p/a) and a small ground rent (listed as £100 p/a or alternatively £135 p/a in different sources). These fees contribute to communal maintenance and should be checked against the latest management accounts before purchase.
Overall the bungalow suits someone seeking a manageable, well-located retirement home with modest running costs and straightforward maintenance. The accommodation is average-sized at about 775 sq ft and will appeal to downsizers wanting village life close to shops and services, though buyers wanting a long-term freehold or lower annual charges should consider the leasehold costs carefully.
