Large plot and garages — a renovation opportunity in Cottenham, sold at auction.
Detached two-bedroom bungalow on a large plot, single-storey living
Set on a large plot on Lambs Lane, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers generous single-storey living and significant scope for renovation. At approximately 1,376 sq ft the layout includes two reception rooms, a conservatory, kitchen, bathroom and useful outbuildings (two garages plus a workshop). Off-street parking on a wide gravel drive and a substantial garden make this a comfortable base for downsizers seeking space without stairs.
The property was constructed in the mid-20th century and retains period proportions; double glazing has been added since 2002 and the home is served by mains gas central heating. That said, the house requires updating and maintenance throughout — cosmetic and systems refurbishment is needed, and the cavity walls were built without added insulation (assumed). These works present clear potential to add value, reconfigure rooms or extend (subject to planning).
This sale is by auction (Modern Method of Auction) and carries obligations: a Buyer Information Pack and a Reservation Fee in addition to the purchase price. Prospective buyers should review the Pack, consider mortgage implications and inspect the property carefully before bidding. The freehold tenure, low local crime, fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and proximity to well-rated local schools add practical appeal.
Ideal for a downsizer or buyer seeking a renovation project in a very affluent, small-town fringe setting, this bungalow rewards those prepared to invest time and budget. With vision and refurbishment this detached home could become a comfortable, accessible long-term residence or high-value resale.
