The house sits back from the
road and has been comprehensively improved and extended to a high
specification which includes a side extension, new cloakroom and
utility, bathroom, new electrics, windows, drive, roof and new
flooring including a beautiful solid oak floor in the
hallway.
The ground floor now has a
large reception hall with skylight allowing lots of natural light
leading into the sitting room to the front and a recently fitted
wood burning stove.
Also from the hall is a useful
study and contemporary styled cloakroom with the kitchen dining
room to the rear of the house with fitted units, oven, hob and
plumbing for a dishwasher. In the utility there is plumbing for a
washing machine and space for a tumble dryer.
The first floor has four
bedrooms and an impressive, high specification bathroom including a
double ended bath, walk in shower with a be spoke glass enclosure,
concealed cistern wc and wash basin. The room is complimented by
beautifully tiled walls and a feature towel rail.
The rear garden is generous in
size and largely to lawn with two sheds and greenhouse. It retains
the side access which also is a good storage area. To the far end
of the garden there are lovely views over adjoining
countryside.
Whittlesford is an enormously popular historic village. It is
far enough away from Cambridge to be peaceful but close enough to
offer an easy commute and has a good range of local facilities.
Junction 10 of the M11 is only about a mile away and on the
outskirts of the village is its mainline railway station,
Whittlesford Parkway, which offers services to Cambridge and London
Liverpool Street and makes the village an excellent base for
commuting down to London.
Within the village there is a post office and shop, The
Tickell Arms pub and restaurant and The Bees in the Wall pub. There
is also The Red Lion Inn and a hotel by the railway station. The
village has various societies, clubs and sports teams and an OFSTED
‘Good‘ primary school that feeds to the OFSTED ‘Good‘ Sawston
Village College.
