Summary - 50 MILLS LANE LONGSTANTON CAMBRIDGE CB24 3DG
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Extended family home with studio, large garden and strong energy features.
Approaching one-acre plot with paddock-style lawn and mature trees
Spacious, recently improved four-bedroom detached cottage set on a plot approaching one acre, combining period charm with modern convenience. A vaulted master bedroom with en suite and Juliette balcony overlooks mature trees, while the extended open-plan kitchen/dining/living space with underfloor heating and bifold doors is designed for family life and entertaining. The property includes a dedicated garden studio/home office, summerhouse, timber shed and greenhouse, providing versatile outbuildings and excellent outdoor space.
Energy-efficient features include solar panels, Tesla battery storage and an EV charging point, which help reduce running costs alongside gas central heating. Off-road parking for multiple vehicles is provided via a gated driveway and additional side access. The plot has been cultivated for wildlife and productive gardening, with fruit trees, vegetable beds and paddock-style lawn areas ideal for children and pets.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds are very slow, and council tax is above average. The house was built in the 1980s and has double glazing installed before 2002. The hamlet setting delivers privacy and quiet but is more isolated than a suburban location; local services and the guided busway to Cambridge are within reach, with a selection of well-regarded primary and secondary schools nearby.
