An unusually flexible, spacious detached house in the heart of Fordham, arranged to suit multi‑generational living or holiday‑let income. The property includes three kitchens, four/five reception rooms and seven bedrooms (two en suite), set on a very large private plot with mature gardens and an expansive gravel driveway. The attached bungalow-like wing gives independent living space and clear potential for Airbnb or separate family use.
Internally the accommodation is generous throughout with large living/dining rooms, multiple bathrooms and useful circulation spaces. The layout offers scope to adapt or reconfigure to individual requirements — buyers should expect some updating and possible works to tailor the house to modern tastes. The EPC is band D and the cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so energy efficiency improvements could be considered.
Externally the mature, well‑maintained gardens and generous parking are major strengths, providing privacy and space for family life or outside entertaining. Location benefits include a village primary school rated Good, nearby independent and outstanding secondary schooling, easy road links to Newmarket and Cambridge, and rail access within a short drive.
Practical points to note: tenure is freehold and the sale is chain free, but council tax is above average (Band E) and the house dates from the 1950s–60s so services and finishes may benefit from refurbishment. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale and flexibility of the accommodation.
