Tucked in the sought-after village of Swaffham Bulbeck, this newly renovated mid-terrace combines period character with practical modern living. The living room centres on a red-brick inglenook with a wood-burning stove that creates an immediate sense of warmth and detail. Downstairs an open-plan kitchen/dining area with island and French doors gives a bright social hub that spills onto the enclosed rear garden.
The property currently offers one generous bedroom with an ensuite plus a cloakroom/utility area. Full planning permission (ref: 22/00754/FUL) is already granted to add a second bedroom, making this an attractive purchase for a first-time buyer looking to add value or a couple planning to grow. Newly fitted fixtures and double glazing mean you can move in and enjoy the cottage feel from day one.
There are practical points to note: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, walls are traditional solid brick (no cavity insulation assumed), and the EPC is D. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow, and the plot and room sizes are modest, so the layout suits buyers wanting a compact, characterful home rather than a large family house. Council tax is described as affordable and the property is freehold.
Positioned under 10 miles from Cambridge and close to Newmarket, the cottage is convenient for commuters and benefits from village amenities and highly regarded local primary schools. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the combination of period detail, recent renovation and the ready potential to extend to two bedrooms under the existing consent.
