This substantial four-bedroom detached house sits on a large plot in a sought-after South Cambridgeshire village, offering around 2,365 sq ft of versatile living arranged over two floors. The property combines traditional character — a Georgian-revival brick façade and bay windows — with high-spec, contemporary upgrades: a large open-plan kitchen/family room with quality Statuario marble surfaces, engineered oak floors, and integrated appliances. Several principal rooms are served by air conditioning and full-height bi-fold doors open the ground floor to a paved terrace and enclosed rear garden.
Practical family features include generous bedroom sizes with built-in storage, a principal ensuite, a dedicated utility room and flexible extra reception space that would work as an office or dining room. Outside, gated five-bar access leads to an extensive carriage-style gravel driveway with plentiful parking, mature borders and a private enclosed lawned garden with terraces and pergola — good scope for outdoor entertaining and family use. Local amenities include a nearby rail station with links to Cambridge and London Kings Cross, and a cluster of primary schools rated Good.
Important facts and considerations: the property dates from mid-century and retains solid brick external walls which were built without modern cavity insulation (assumed), so buyers should factor potential wall insulation or energy-efficiency works into future plans. Council tax is above average. Broadband is fast and the area is very affluent, but local secondary school ratings are mixed, so families should check individual school places. Overall, this is a spacious, well-updated family home in a rural village setting with strong commuting links and clear potential for further improvement to energy performance.
