Set on a generous 0.11-acre plot in peaceful Colne, Oldbury House is a 1930s detached character home offering 1,583 sq ft of well-proportioned living space. The house has been carefully presented using largely reclaimed materials and retains many original features including fireplaces, doors, floors and picture rails that give rooms warmth and authenticity.
Ground-floor accommodation includes a large kitchen/breakfast room and separate living and dining rooms, with a useful utility and study. Three double bedrooms upstairs share a single family bathroom, which may prompt buyers seeking more bathrooms to consider an extension or reconfiguration. A beautifully landscaped wrap-around garden, substantial patio and off-street parking complete the setting.
Practical points: the property is solid-brick construction (assumed uninsulated), has gas central heating to radiators, double glazing with unknown installation date, and council tax noted as above average. Broadband speeds are fast and the village location delivers low crime, good local schools and straightforward road and rail links — Huntingdon station is around nine miles away for swift journeys to London.
This home will suit buyers who value period character, generous outside space and village tranquillity. There is obvious potential for modernization or alteration for those wishing to add a second bathroom, improve insulation or update services; prospective purchasers should commission independent surveys to check services and structural condition.
