Property description

Set on the edge of the village with open field views, this home is approximately 3,700 square feet and situated on about 2.5 acres. Planning permission has been granted for another luxury home or in principle for development of 4-6 properties.

Stepping inside, the spacious entrance hall provides access to the two principal reception rooms, both of which open onto a generous conservatory, the perfect spot to enjoy views of the gardens and far-reaching countryside beyond.

The conservatory opens onto the patio and gardens. The kitchen/breakfast room, featuring an Aga, has plenty of space for a breakfast table, ideal for busy families. A family room and study are flexible spaces that could be utilized as an additional bedroom and reception room, served by the ground floor shower room and utility, creating a self-contained annexe. Upstairs, the five bedrooms are well served by an en suite to the principal bedroom, a family bathroom, and an additional cloakroom. Outside, the expansive grounds are a wonderful feature of this property. The elevated position and south-facing rear gardens provide a sunny, private space. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with a selection of mature specimen trees and hedging.

While the planning permission allows for further development if desired, this property could also be a perfect home with excellent transport links and the village centre and pub restaurant within walking distance.

Seller Insight
It was on retirement from operating a large farm that the family purchased this property. Built in the mid 1950s the location of the house was perfection but did require some t.l.c. They rose to the challenge and undertook a major project to increase the size of their new home and add to its conveniences and comforts. Not a stone was left unturned to ensure that the house met with their exacting specification. A cellar was dug to accommodate a large wine collection, plus extra reception and bedrooms rooms were added, including lots of practical and luxurious amenities.

The year round conservatory leads from both dining and reception rooms and is much loved, whether it be as extra space when large groups of friends and family are visiting or, more particularly, a splendid space in which to relax on cold winter days and enjoy the garden and its visiting wildlife. Such a spacious, elegant, home is perfect to welcome friends and family and such occasions have been numerous, with the house and garden often utilised for local fund raising events.

Steps from the elevated partio lead down onto a further area providing lots of space for al fresco dining with a splendid outlook into the large garden. There is also a productive orchard and the compact barn at the end of the garden is home for barn owls.

Although beautifully tucked away in this quiet village, everything required is close at hand. There is an excellent choice of schools, including Kimbolton Independent school, just few miles away. Huntingdon is very close which is where the main line station is located and provides an efficient service into the capital and beyond to Gatwick Airport and the coast. Grafham Water is very close which is a popular centre for sailing and other water activities. The newly updated A14 is also close which connects with other major roads and also provides stress free journeys into the beautiful city of Cambridge.

It is now time for the owner to move but this has been a magical home in an outstanding location from which so many happy memories will be taken with her.
