Seller Insight
“Ash Tree House has been our home since 2006. We were first drawn to it because of its size and countryside location. With open fields on one side and the village church on the other, it had enormous potential. The views were incredible, yet there were no windows at the rear to enjoy them—so we saw an opportunity to truly make the house our own.”

“Since moving in, we have modernised and reconfigured the layout to create a more open, practical living space. One of the biggest changes was adding windows at the back, bringing in natural light and making the most of the scenery. The kitchen became the heart of the home—a bright, spacious, and sociable area. We also added a distinctive round window overlooking the fields, which has become a real focal point. With two entrances and two staircases, the house is incredibly flexible.”

“The garden has been a true sanctuary, wrapping around the house and catching the sun throughout the day, making it a wonderful place to spend time. I’ve always enjoyed managing the space, while my wife has taken great pride in growing vegetables—our gooseberries, in particular, have been a favourite. The garden is private, peaceful, and a perfect extension of the home.”

“Ash Tree House has been ideal for entertaining, with a large dining room and generous living spaces. We’ve hosted some fantastic garden parties, with plenty of room for marquees and gatherings of family and friends.”

“Beyond the home itself, the location has been ideal—secluded and private yet conveniently close to all amenities. Commuting to London was effortless, and returning to the village after a busy day in the city was an absolute joy. The community here is warm and welcoming, with a true sense of village spirit. The local primary school plays an active role in bringing people together, organising events that add to the charm of life here.”

“Now that we’ve moved to the south coast, we will truly miss the people and the lifestyle that made this place so special. Cambridgeshire has been a fantastic place to call home, and Ash Tree House holds so many great memories for us.”
