Set in the heart of Great Chesterford, this Grade II Listed mid-terrace cottage blends historic character with practical family living. Vaulted kitchen/diner with skylights and full-height glazed doors opens to a lawned rear garden, creating a bright hub for daily life and entertaining. Living and family rooms retain exposed timbers, oak floors and an open fireplace with log-burning stove, offering authentic period charm and comfortable reception space.
The layout offers three first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom, with useful built-in storage and flexible room sizes across roughly 1,314 sq ft. Fast broadband and strong commuter links make the cottage well suited to professionals working from home or commuting to Cambridge/London. The property is offered chain free, simplifying purchase for buyers seeking a quick move.
Buyers should note the Grade II Listed status: external and internal alterations will be restricted and may require listed-building consent, which can add time and cost to significant work. The plot is modest with a narrow street frontage and on-street parking; outdoor space is a good, but not generous, rear garden. There is one bathroom and relatively low ceiling heights in places typical of Georgian cottages, which may limit some modernisation options.
