A high-quality barn conversion finished in 2008, set within a small development between Hildersham and Little Abington. The home offers generous, characterful living spaces with exposed timbers, vaulted ceilings and large windows that flood the principal rooms with light. The layout places most accommodation on the ground floor for easy versatility; unused bedrooms suit a home office, playroom or snug.
Outside, the property sits on a large, private west-facing plot with professionally landscaped formal gardens, a sizeable patio and pergola area, open cart lodge and an enclosed workshop with power and light. Ample gravelled parking is provided to the front with gated access and a private driveway for the four-dwelling development.
Practical features include a recently refitted high-spec German kitchen, underfloor heating supplied by an oil-fired boiler, double glazing and an EPC rating of C (71) which reflects reasonable energy efficiency for a converted barn. The home is offered freehold and chain free, positioned about 7–8 miles from Cambridge and with good road links to the M11 and A11.
Notable negatives are the oil-fuelled heating (independent supply), and the property sits in Council Tax band G which implies higher running costs. The semi-detached form and location within a small cluster of four dwellings mean it is private but not wholly detached. Buyers should note average mobile signal despite fast broadband and consider long-term fuel choices for heating.
