Set on a very large plot with uninterrupted country views, this individual five-bedroom detached home suits growing families seeking space and privacy. The layout delivers formal and informal living with three en-suite bedrooms, a principal dressing room, and generous entertaining rooms that open onto an extensive patio.
The property is finished to a high standard throughout with underfloor heating downstairs and in all bathrooms, Neff kitchen appliances, and bi-fold doors that maximise the garden connection. A double cart lodge and an additional outbuilding (with WC, sink, power and lighting) provide useful ancillary accommodation and parking.
Practical considerations include LPG-fired central heating with a boiler and underfloor system, an EPC rating of C, and notably slow broadband speeds with average mobile signal — factors to weigh for remote working. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The house is offered freehold and chain free, with straightforward road links to the A11, A14 and M11 for commuting.
Fordham gives rural village life with good local amenities and highly regarded schools nearby, while Newmarket, Ely and Cambridge are all within commuting distance. The property will appeal to families wanting generous internal space, strong schooling options and a quiet rural setting, but buyers seeking high-speed connectivity or lower running costs should note the broadband and fuel type considerations.
