Summary - 44 CHURCH STREET HEMINGFORD GREY HUNTINGDON PE28 9DF
4 bed 2 bath Character Property
Historic Grade II home with riverside views and large private garden.
4 double bedrooms with generous principal rooms
Dating from the mid-1500s, The Old Cottage is an exceptional Grade II character home offering 3,474 sq ft of flexible living space across multiple levels. Set on c.0.28 acres, the house delivers outstanding views of the neighbouring church and the River Great Ouse, generous principal rooms and a beautifully manicured rear garden — a rare parcel in a sought‑after Cambridgeshire village.
The property retains extensive period detail and large reception rooms (living room 6.57 x 6.29m, dining room 6.38 x 5.10m) that will suit buyers seeking character and space for family life, entertaining or home working. The site includes a substantial detached garage and off‑street parking, and the Hemingfords provide village amenities, a primary school rated Good, and easy road links to Huntingdon and Cambridge. Huntingdon station is around four miles away with direct services to London in under an hour.
Buyers should note this is a Grade II listed building — any alterations will require consent and could complicate renovation. Construction is solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, so upgrading services and improving thermal efficiency may be needed. There are two bathrooms serving four double bedrooms, and prospective purchasers are advised to commission a full survey and service checks before committing.
Overall this is a rare opportunity to own a historically significant, substantially sized cottage in a picturesque setting. It will particularly suit families or purchasers who value period character and generous gardens, and who are prepared to manage listed‑building responsibilities and some modernization to bring the house up to contemporary energy and service standards.
