Two-bedroom village home with garden room and off-street parking, chain-free.
Heart of Great Shelford village, 300m from mainline station
A rare period cottage in the heart of Great Shelford, this two-bedroom detached house offers authentic character and a central village location just three miles from Cambridge. The house has several original features, two open fireplaces, a glazed garden room with French doors and an ornamental pond in the long, private rear garden. The kitchen and bathroom have been updated in recent years and mains gas central heating is installed.
The property is presented as a modernisation opportunity: solid brick walls (likely uninsulated), some roof wear and secondary glazing indicate further improvement is needed to raise thermal performance and finish. The footprint is modest but the long, narrow plot and existing outbuilding provide scope for sensitive rear or roof extension, subject to planning consent. Vehicular access is narrow with one off-street space.
Location is a key strength: the village provides local shops, primary schools rated Good and a mainline station (Liverpool Street) about 300 metres away, with Cambridge city centre and Addenbrooke’s within easy reach. Fast broadband and low local crime add practical appeal for families or professionals commuting to the city or hospital.
Buyers should note the property requires renovation to reach its full potential, council tax is above average, and the plot is relatively narrow in width. The sale is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, allowing a quicker purchase for someone prepared to carry out improvement works.
