Set on a large town-centre plot close to Chatteris Parish Church, this Victorian detached house offers generous family space and period charm. High ceilings, bay sash windows and original brickwork give the property strong character, while the substantial garden and gated driveway provide rare outdoor and parking space in a central location.
The house totals about 1,884 sq ft across multiple storeys with flexible layout for four bedrooms (or five) and eight principal rooms. A traditional kitchen/breakfast room and sizeable reception rooms suit everyday family living and entertaining. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the home practical for remote working and modern life.
There are clear opportunities to add value: the large garden may accommodate two potential building plots (subject to planning) and the property overall invites sympathetic updating. Key practical points are straightforward — the home runs on an oil-fired boiler with radiators, has secondary glazing, solid brick walls likely without insulation and currently carries an EPC rating of F, so upgrading heating and insulation would reduce running costs and improve comfort.
For buyers seeking a period home with scope rather than a turnkey finish, this is a strong proposition. The house is freehold, not in a flood risk area, and sits within walking distance of local amenities and good-rated schools. Note the council tax band is high and some renovation and energy-efficiency work will be needed to maximise long-term value.
