Bridge House is a distinctive Victorian detached home on the edge of Elm, offering generous family space across two storeys. The house keeps many original features — exposed beams, cast-iron fireplaces and timber floors — and benefits from three reception rooms, a separate cloakroom and a full family bathroom. A detached two‑storey brick wash house and garage expand practical possibilities for storage, workshop use or conversion (subject to consents).
The mature, fully enclosed rear garden and private garage provide secure outdoor space and parking, while the property’s size and room proportions suit growing families who value period character. Elm CofE Primary School and other good local schools are nearby, and village amenities include shops, a pub and bus links to Wisbech.
Buyers should note material points plainly: the house was built before 1900 with solid brick walls and is presumed uninsulated; some windows and the consumer electrical unit are older/single glazed in places; drainage is non‑mains. The gas boiler is located in the garage, and the property will need some updating and routine maintenance to modernise heating, insulation and services.
This is a large, characterful family home with scope to improve energy performance and reconfigure spaces if desired. It will suit purchasers seeking village life, substantial living space and period detail, prepared to carry out sympathetic upgrades to realise the property’s full potential.
