Property description

This wonderful barn style house was built to the design and specification of the current owners, situated at the end of a long gravelled driveway and accessed via a five-bar gate. The house is not immediately visible from the road making the location both private and extremely rare, particularly when one considers its excellent proximity to the village centre, Cambridge and the Addenbrooke's site.



The approach is discreet and the front of the house gives no clue to what is on offer. This is, however, made clearer when you enter the reception hall, with its vaulted ceiling with glass roof lights and the timber and glass stairs.



The principal reception area is quite stunning and comprises four main areas. The kitchen is fitted with handmade, painted, units incorporating a large island and there is a range of integrated appliances and a Rayburn. The worktops are a blend of Granite and solid wood. The dining area is at the centre of the room and leads to the garden area, which is a lovely seating area with bi-folding doors and a full height glass apex with gallery over. The sitting area has a wood-burning stove and double doors to the front and rear. Also on the ground floor is a utility room, cloakroom and the annexe, which has a long hallway, extensively fitted with book-shelving, a living room, double bedroom and shower room.



The Oak staircase, with glass panels, leads to the first floor and the Oak and glass continues with the galleried landing and seating area with lovely views of the garden. All the bedrooms are doubles and the en suite bathroom and family bathroom are well equipped and include walk-in showers.



The gardens set the house apart and are predominantly to lawn, although there are a large number of mature trees and shrubs. A post and rail fence provides the rear boundary, but does nothing to spoil the views of the paddocks beyond. There is a large shed and wood store. At the rear of the house, the landscaping has been well thought out and incorporates decked areas and walkways, shaped walling and decorative timbers, as well as a large paved terrace.
