Set within about 1.4 acres in the sought-after village of Wicken, this substantial detached house offers spacious family living and genuine equestrian potential. The ground floor is arranged for everyday life and entertaining: a modern kitchen opening to an impressive atrium, two generous reception rooms with wood burners, a large utility and practical cloakroom. Upstairs are four double bedrooms, two with en suites, and a contemporary family bathroom. The property is presented well throughout with Moduleo wood flooring and zoned underfloor heating in many rooms.
Outside will be a major draw for buyers who need land or stabling: gated access to a sweeping gravel driveway, a menage with floodlights, paddocks, stables and a range of outbuildings including garage storage and a hay loft. Landscaped patios and lawned areas create private outdoor living spaces immediately adjacent to the house. Broadband and mobile coverage are good for a rural location.
Buyers should note a few material points: heating is oil-fired (not a community supply), which can mean higher running costs and fuel management. Windows are double glazed but largely installed before 2002, and the property sits on a large plot that will require ongoing maintenance. Council tax is in the higher band (F). These are practical considerations against a strong list of features.
This home suits a family wanting space and privacy in a village setting, or someone seeking a turnkey equestrian base close to Cambridge and Newmarket. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the scale of the accommodation and the extensive outbuildings and land.
