Summary - 289 High Street, Cottenham CB24 8QP
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Characterful village location with parking and extension potential.
Three-bedroom detached Victorian period home
This three-bedroom detached period home sits on Cottenham High Street, offering a blend of Victorian character and everyday practicality. The house has two reception rooms and a generous uPVC conservatory that opens to a private rear garden, creating flexible family living and entertaining space.
The kitchen has been refitted with modern units and integrated appliances, and the property benefits from a ground-floor shower room plus a first-floor bathroom. A broad side area provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles and access to a single garage; there is scope to create a car port or extend upstairs, subject to planning permission.
The property requires some modernisation. A failed damp-proof course affecting two front walls has been identified; estimated remedial costs of around £6,000 have been accounted for in the asking price. The house has solid brick walls (no insulation assumed) and double glazing installed before 2002, so buyers seeking high thermal efficiency may want to plan upgrades.
Located in a sought-after north Cambridge village with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and highly rated local schools, this home will suit families or buyers looking for a character property with clear potential to personalise and extend.
