Description
Believed to date from 1966, Twin Oaks was built by Westholme of Ely and is of pre-fabricated concrete panel construction under a pitched tiled roof occupying a generous, mature plot of nearly half an acre.
The vendors acquired the property in October 2022 and in the intervening period have renovated and updated Twin Oaks with works including a new woodburning stove with back boiler serving the hot water and central heating system, rewiring the property and updating the kitchen and shower room - with the kitchen including an impressive dual fuel Rangemaster cooker. In addition, new UPVC windows were installed, and the exterior of the building rendered and painted. A new foul water treatment plant has also been installed, together with extensive works within the gardens and grounds including the improvement of the driveway and parking area and installation of patio areas at the rear.
Twin Oaks occupies a large plot of nearly half an acre, and facing in both south and westerly directions, the gardens enjoy the sun during the latter half of the day. The plot itself is very private and includes a wide variety of mature and established shrubs and trees, and a useful range of timber frame garages/storage buildings as well.
Prospective purchasers should note that overhead electricity pylons cross the western part of the garden.

What Is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small file containing a unique identifier that is placed in the web browser of your computer or mobile device. Cookies and related technologies, such as tracking pixels, enable our systems to recognize your device and report information back to us. Such recognition helps the efficient operation of PropertyHeads, including our website and apps.

Yes, like most websites and social networks, we use cookies in the course of providing you with our Services.
What Cookies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
We use both session cookies and persistent cookies.
We use a session cookie to identify you during a particular visit to PropertyHeads. Session cookies expire after a short time, or when you close your web browser or app after using PropertyHeads.
We use a persistent cookie to identify you over a long period of time. (For example, if you asked us to keep you signed in, we would use a persistent cookie for that purpose.) Persistent cookies remain on your device for the set period of time specified in the cookie.
We use cookies to operate and improve PropertyHeads, specifically:
To authenticate you and secure our Services: We use cookies to monitor login, session and status data. This allows us to know, for example, whether you are logged in.

Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics, including Google Analytics cookies, to collect anonymous traffic data to help us analyze how members and visitors access and use PropertyHeads, and for other Analytics services relating to website activity and internet usage.
Third-Party Cookies From Content Shared By Members: PropertyHeads members may share content on PropertyHeads that originates from a third-party website or service, and that third-party website or service may set its own cookies when you interact with that content.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
