Summary - THE WYCH, LONDON HILL, CAMBRIDGE, BABRAHAM CB22 3AS
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Large plot with substantial outbuildings and conversion potential near Cambridge.
Four-bedroom detached farmhouse with panoramic countryside views
Set in around 7.58 acres on the edge of Babraham, this characterful four-bedroom farmhouse sits within a substantial smallholding that will appeal to buyers seeking country life close to Cambridge. The house offers traditional features including an Aga-centred kitchen, UPVC double glazing, attached garage and far-reaching southern countryside views. A generous garden and a rear arable field of 6.80 acres, bordered by mature trees, provide space for equestrian, horticultural or smallholding uses (subject to any necessary consents).
The site includes two large agricultural buildings — a 7,115 sq ft poultry shed and a 1,305 sq ft agricultural store — plus a concrete yard and vehicle access, giving useful storage or conversion potential (subject to planning permission). The property is offered with mains water and electricity; foul drainage is served by a private septic tank and heating is via an oil-fired Aga and electric radiators. Whittlesford Parkway and the M11 are within easy reach for commuting to Cambridge or London.
Important practical facts: the farmhouse is sold subject to an existing Agricultural Occupancy Condition, the EPC rating is F, and broadband speeds are very slow. The sale of the buildings and land is subject to a 35% overage for 30 years, triggered by implementation of planning permissions or permitted development rights. Buyers should assess services, planning prospects and any refurbishment or drainage upgrades required before purchase.
This property offers a rare combination of immediate rural living with substantial development potential. It is best suited to purchasers wanting privacy, outdoor space and utility buildings — families seeking countryside lifestyle, hobby farmers, or investors prepared to work through planning and improvement requirements.
