Located on a peaceful village lane, on 0.64 of an acre with open field views to the rear, this spacious home offers accommodation approaching 3000 square feet, plus garaging and a carport.
Stepping inside, the entrance hall features an oak staircase with a galleried landing above and opens onto four reception rooms and the kitchen breakfast room. The spacious sitting room is particularly special, boasting a brick-built fireplace with a timber bressummer and a wood-burning stove, along with two sets of doors leading to the gardens. Three further reception rooms provide flexibility and are currently used as a study, ideal for home working, a generous dining room, and a garden room. The kitchen breakfast room, with an adjoining utility room, has granite work surfaces and a range of appliances. Upstairs, the four double bedrooms are well-served, with the principal bedroom having both a dressing room and an en suite. The second bedroom also has an en suite, while the remaining bedrooms share a family bathroom.
Outside, a five-bar gate opens onto a block-paved drive providing access to an oversized garage/shop and a carport. The extensive rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a selection of mature specimen trees and is enclosed by established hedging.
The property is located in a picturesque village on a no-through road, providing an extremely peaceful setting while being within walking distance of the village pub and an easy drive to Cambridge and mainline rail services to London.
