Set within a private, generous plot just minutes from Ely city centre, this versatile five-bedroom detached house offers more than 4,000 sq ft of living space across multiple levels. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating, a large open-plan living/dining area with part-glass ceiling, five reception rooms and practical utility spaces including a fridge/freezer room and laundry chute. Four bedrooms are en suite and the master suite includes a balcony and dressing room; a second-floor studio with dual balconies provides a separate home office or creative space.
Outside the plot is notable for its productive garden: vegetable beds, a greenhouse, a large fruit cage, rainwater harvesting and a pond. Leisure features include an octagonal summer house with fireplace, an outdoor spa with shower and changing area, workshop with services, double garage and wide gravel driveway. Architects’ plans have been prepared for a separate annexe conversion, offering clear scope to add value or create multigenerational accommodation.
The house blends period fabric with contemporary extensions and improvements: solid brick construction with external insulation and double glazing installed post-2002. The property is freehold, EPC rated C and served by mains gas boiler with underfloor heating. Practical points to note: council tax is above average, mobile signal is only average and the property’s age and size mean ongoing maintenance and running costs will be higher than for a smaller modern home.
This home suits buyers seeking a distinctive family base or space for multigenerational living, with strong potential for adaptation using the prepared annexe plans. Its large plot, extensive outbuildings and leisure facilities create a rare combination of indoor and outdoor living close to good schools and Ely’s rail links.
