A tidy two-bedroom mid-terrace on a new development, this compact home suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking low-maintenance village living. The ground floor offers a well-proportioned sitting room and a kitchen-dining area with French doors opening onto a fully enclosed rear garden — good for outdoor space and direct access from the kitchen. Gas central heating and double glazing keep running costs typical for the area.
The layout is straightforward: entrance hall with cloakroom WC, sitting room, kitchen/diner, two bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom. The garden is longer than many terraces here and includes a patio, lawn and timber shed; there is a single off-street parking space to the front. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is average, useful for remote working or streaming.
Important practical points: the home is compact at about 572 sq ft, so room sizes are modest and storage is limited. A small annual maintenance charge (£240) applies for communal upkeep. Presentation is modern and clean, though buyers seeking larger living areas or expansive plots may find the footprint restrictive. Freehold tenure and no flood risk are positive features.
Nearby Cottenham village amenities and good primary/secondary schools are within walking distance, making this a convenient option for local first-time buyers. For investors, the property’s size, low maintenance costs and location on a new development support straightforward lettability, though rental demand and yields should be checked against local market conditions.
