Set on a generous plot in the popular Waterbeach village, this extended 4-bedroom detached house balances character and contemporary living. The home offers a light-filled lounge with an atrium ceiling and Velux windows, a large fitted kitchen, two ground-floor double bedrooms and two first-floor doubles — useful for families wanting flexible sleeping arrangements or a home office. The south-facing rear garden, decked dining area and mature planting create a private outdoor space for children and entertaining.
Practical advantages include a wide driveway with off-street parking for up to five cars and a large double garage currently used as a games room, offering scope for conversion or workshop use. There is substantial roof/eaves space with around 700 sq ft of potential development in the loft, subject to consent. The property is freehold, connected to mains gas central heating and has an EPC rating of C.
Honest considerations: the house was originally built 1900–1929 with solid brick walls and assumed no cavity insulation, so upgrading thermal performance may be needed to improve comfort and running costs. Council tax sits in an above-average band. The large loft and garage require formal permissions and investment to convert; they’re potential value-adds but not ready-built living space.
For families and buyers seeking a generous, move-in-ready home with clear scope to increase value, this property offers immediate usability alongside measurable improvement opportunities in energy efficiency and additional living space.
