Description
An elegant, beautifully presented, detached family home, set in a quiet location, in the shadow of the parish church, with a west facing garden, double garage, and off road parking. Offered with no upward chain.
Set back behind a beautifully maintained front garden, there is a double garage and a parking area close to the roadside and a winding path leads over a lovely lawned front garden to the front door which is framed by a mature wisteria. The entrance hall is welcoming with the staircase leading to the first floor and there is a useful coat cupboard and cloakroom off.
The sitting room to the front of the house is a bright, generously proportioned room with an attractive bay window providing lots of light and views over the garden. Double doors open to the dining room and a handsome, double sided stove is set between the two rooms. The dining room is very generously proportioned and has a large westerly facing window overlooking the garden and southerly facing patio doors which together flood the room with natural light. The study is off the sitting room and this again enjoys a westerly aspect and views over the garden.
On the ground floor, there is also a very generous, dual aspect kitchen fitted with underfloor heating and a range of high quality kitchen cabinets set above and below the working surfaces. There is a sink and drainer set below a large window overlooking the front garden, an integrated fridge/freezer, and space for a dishwasher, a large range cooker, and a washing machine. Patio doors provide lovely views over the garden and give access out.
On the first floor, the landing is bright with a window on the landing providing light over the stairwell. There are four bedrooms, three doubles, and a single and a modern family bathroom fitted with a bath with shower over, concealed cistern w.c. and hand basin. The main bedroom has two large fitted wardrobes and an en-suite with a large shower enclosure, w.c. and hand basin. The second bedroom also benefits from a double wardrobe, and bedrooms two, three, and four all have views over the rear garden.
Outside the rear garden is beautifully maintained and benefits from a westerly aspect, enjoying lots of afternoon and evening sunshine. There is a generous patio adjacent to the house bordered by mature shrub beds, and there are trees, shrubs, climbers, and an area of lawn. The garden backs onto bungalows so it enjoys a high degree of privacy.
Agents note: Bancroft Farm which is in poor condition is opposite this property and is currently on the market with planning to provide a small select development that will improve and enhance the area.
Little Abington and Great Abington are an attractive, traditional pair of villages about 6 miles southeast of Cambridge. They have an OFSTED ‘Good‘ primary school that feeds into the well regarded Linton Village College, a post office/shop, a lovely pub restaurant, a sports ground and active cricket club, a village hall, and a hairdresser.
For commuters the A11, which links down to the M11, is only a mile away and Cambridge is easily accessed along either the A1307 or A1301. Whittlesford Parkway mainline station (Cambridge and London Liverpool Street) is about 4 miles away.
Abington has its own major science park, Granta Park, which can be reached easily on foot or by bike on a footpath off the High Street and neighbouring Babraham‘s science park is less than 2 miles away with a pleasant cycle and foot route over the A11 starting near the end of Bourn Bridge Road.
