The ground floor opens to a sitting room and a modern fitted kitchen that flows into a bright conservatory with underfloor heating — a practical entertaining space that leads out to a low‑maintenance, landscaped garden. Off-road parking for two and a detached single garage with power, lighting and garden access add useful storage and vehicle space.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a smaller third room currently used as a home office, plus a contemporary shower room. The house is freehold, comes with no onward chain and has an EPC rating of C. Local amenities are strong: good and outstanding-rated schools nearby (including Swavesey Village College), regular bus links, Tesco Extra and recreation facilities. Cycle and bus routes make commuting into Cambridge and the Science Park straightforward.
Buyers should note the property is compact (approximately 73 sqm / 786 sq ft) and sits in an area with a medium flooding risk — appropriate insurance and flood-preparedness measures should be considered. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, which may affect remote working without upgrades. The home is modern and well-presented but occupies a small plot and could benefit from updating in places to suit individual tastes.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance family home or commuter base for those seeking quick access to Cambridge and good local schools. Its combination of garage, driveway parking, conservatory living space and no onward chain makes it a straightforward purchase for buyers prioritising location and convenience over expansive accommodation.
