Summary - CUCKOO BRIDGE COTTAGE ST IVES ROAD SOMERSHAM HUNTINGDON PE28 3ET
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Substantial gardens and field views, perfect for family renovation projects.
Three generous double bedrooms with en suite to principal
Cuckoo Bridge Cottage is a substantial early-1900s detached character home set on a very large plot (approximately a third of an acre) on the edge of Somersham. The house offers generous living space across a wide ground-floor footprint and two upper floors, including three double bedrooms and an en suite to the principal. Many original features remain alongside more contemporary rooms, and the property benefits from uninterrupted agricultural views to the rear.
The plot is a major asset: expansive south-east facing gardens, patios, a brick-built summerhouse with integrated storage and bar, vegetable beds, private driveway parking and a double garage. There is an electric car charger on the drive and a recently replaced boiler (2021), which support modern household needs. Local amenities, Ofsted-rated schooling and good road links to St Ives, Huntingdon and Cambridge make the location convenient for families.
The property does require renovation internally and would benefit from a programme of updating and insulating. The loft is only partially converted and will need full conversion to provide reliable additional accommodation. The house has solid brick walls (likely without cavity insulation), an older glazing installation of unknown date, and a septic tank, all of which are practical considerations when budgeting work and running costs.
For buyers seeking a spacious period detached home with strong outdoor space and development potential, this cottage offers an excellent canvas. Viewings are strongly recommended to appreciate the size, layout and extensive grounds in person.
