This detached period cottage sits in the heart of Isleham, offering three double bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous living space over multiple levels. Lovingly maintained, the house combines original character — exposed beams, inglenook and sash windows — with practical modern touches including a Rayburn range integrating central heating, underfloor heating and a well-equipped kitchen. A hidden walk-in wardrobe and separate study offer useful storage and home-working space.
The plot is a major asset: a large private rear garden, summer-house and gravel driveway with room for six to eight vehicles plus two large storage sheds. The location is village-centre convenient, close to shops, pubs and the highly regarded local schools, while Ely and Cambridge remain commutable. Fast broadband and very low local crime add to the property’s everyday appeal.
Practical points to note: parts of the first-floor bedrooms sit within eaves and have sloped ceilings, which reduces usable headroom in places. Council tax is above average (Band E). Records also reference a construction date of 2021 alongside the property’s long-period character — prospective buyers should check title and documentation if exact age or construction history is important. Mobile signal is average.
Chain-free and offered with a 360-degree virtual tour, this home will suit families seeking character, space and village living, or buyers wanting a well-preserved period cottage with modern conveniences and substantial parking and garden space.
