An elegant, thoughtfully extended, and much improved semi
detached home, with a private, southerly facing garden and off road
parking. The property provides high quality accommodation and is
presented in truly immaculate order throughout.
The property has been maintained to the highest standards and
has beautiful, refitted bathrooms and a lovely contemporary kitchen
breakfast room which enjoys a bright southerly aspect. At the same
time, the current owners have respected and retained the character
of the property and enhanced many of its 1920‘s features, including
a pretty cast iron fireplace in one of the bedrooms and picture
rails in many of the rooms.
Approached over a neat front garden with a gravel driveway
providing parking and trees and shrubs screening the property from
the road, the front door is set beneath a canopy which provides
protection from the elements as you go in. The entrance hall is
bright and welcoming with the staircase leading up to the first
floor and there is a generous cupboard under the stairs. The
sitting dining room is a lovely dual aspect room with a window to
the front and patio doors to the rear, and there is an attractive
fireplace inset with a log burner and plenty of space for sitting
and for a table and chairs. The kitchen breakfast room extends
across the width of the property and is a lovely bright, triple
aspect room with space for a kitchen and for dining, and sitting
areas. The kitchen is beautifully fitted with a range of cupboards
and pan drawers set above and below the working surfaces, and there
is a built in oven and hob with an extractor over and space for a
dishwasher and under counter fridge. There are windows and double
doors which give access out to the garden and there is a door to
the utility room which has space and plumbing for a washing machine
and further appliance space. On the ground floor, there is also a
modern cloakroom and another generous room with fitted cupboards
and en suite facilities, which could be used as the main bedroom
but would equally make a lovely snug or office guest bedroom.
On the first floor, the landing opens to three bedrooms and a
luxurious family bathroom. The main bedroom is a good double with
views over the garden, the second is a slightly smaller double and
the third is currently being used as a dressing room but is a
single size with fitted wardrobes to one wall. The family bathroom
is fitted with a large, double ended bathtub with a central tap,
and there is a w.c. and hand basin.
Outside the rear garden is private and thoughtfully planted
with a variety of trees, shrubs and climbers. There is a patio
adjacent to the house and raised beds, beyond which there is an
area of lawn, interspersed with trees. The patio extends around to
a pergola covered in climbers, which provides a lovely area for
dining or entertaining, or a welcome retreat on a warm summer day.
There is a pedestrian path giving access from the front of the
property to the rear, and for larger items the owners have a right
of access over their neighbour‘s property into their rear garden,
this is shown on the title plan coloured brown.
West Wratting is a well regarded village, apparently the
second highest in Cambridgeshire, and is conveniently located for
access to the centres of Cambridge, Saffron Walden, and Newmarket
all of which are about 11 miles equidistant.
The village is within the catchment of Balsham Primary School
which feeds Linton Village College and there is a school bus stop
nearby on the High Street.
Within the village, there is a Church, pub, sports field, and
a village hall, which is well used for community events including a
monthly village cafe. The village also has a well equipped, newly
built children‘s play area.
A wider range of day to day facilities including a small
supermarket, health center, hairdresser, and pubs and cafes are
available in Linton, which is about 5 miles southwest.
