Property description

The property stands close to the centre of the village where Mingle Lane meets Hinton Way, moments' walk from the train station and with excellent cycle routes into Addenbrooke's and the City via the DNA cycleway that starts off Chaston Road. The original house is mid-Victorian and was significantly enlarged early in its life by the addition of the right-hand gable. It retains a wonderful amount of its period character including tall ceilings, original sash windows (secondary glazed at the front for insulation), fireplaces, panelled internal doors and lovely decorative barge boards.



The main ground floor living space is open-plan and currently laid out as a sitting/dining room with two fireplaces and three tall sash windows to the front. There is a fitted kitchen/breakfast room at the back that opens on to the rear garden and a study that also enjoys the same view.



All four first floor bedrooms are of a good size and the master bedroom has lots of fitted wardrobes, a cast-iron fireplace and a shower room with basin. The bathroom is stylishly refitted.



The front is enclosed by iron railings with gravel driveway areas to the front and side giving parking for 3-4 cars. A gate off the drive leads into the rear garden which was professionally landscaped and carefully laid out to give excellent seclusion. To the immediate rear of the house is a shingle terrace area that leads on to a lawn with surrounding shrub and tree borders. A low brick wall with tall trellis secludes a further paved and shingled terrace area at the back of the garden which also has a timber shed and summerhouse.



Property of this age and character is rarely available so close to the village centre.
