The property is set in a generous 0.10 acre plot and has
recently benefitted from a programme of improvement including the
refitting of the kitchen, family bathroom and the addition of a
luxurious en suite to the main bedroom.
Approached over a neat front garden, there is a long driveway
providing parking and giving access to the garage, and an area of
lawn bordered by shrubs and flowers. The front door opens to a neat
entrance hall with the staircase leading up to the first floor and
from here there are doors to the dining room and sitting room. The
dining room to the front of the house is a bright, nicely
proportioned room with a tiled fireplace, and the sitting room to
the rear is a good size and has an ornamental fireplace and double
doors giving access out to the garden. The adjacent kitchen is
beautifully fitted and has cabinets set above and below the working
surfaces, there is a built in double oven and a gas hob with
extractor over, an integrated dishwasher and space for an upright
fridge freezer. There is a door to the lobby which gives access to
the garden and to the garage, and there is also a door to the
family bathroom, which has a bath and w.c..
On the first floor a window on the landing provides natural
light over the stairwell. There are two good double bedrooms with
the main bedroom to the rear having bespoke cupboards fitted on
either side of the chimney breast, and there is a luxurious en
suite fitted with a shower enclosure, w.c. and hand basin. The
second bedroom is also a good double and this has fitted wardrobes
to one wall.
Outside the rear garden is southerly facing and laid to lawn
with flower beds, and mature trees and shrubs. There is a patio
adjacent to the house, and a shed tucked in at the far end of the
garden. The garage is 9m long 29 ft and this has a utility space
close to the kitchen which houses the washing machine and drier.
The garage offers scope for conversion, subject to obtaining the
necessary consents.
Agents note A new boiler was installed about a year ago.
Little Shelford is one of the most highly sought after south
Cambridge villages and stands about 2 miles 3.5 km south of the
City boundary. The majority of the village is within a Conservation
Area which has protected its charm and ensured it has not been
swallowed up by major development over the years.
It is a thriving community with a modern village hall, a large
recreation ground with a brand new sports pavilion, a charming
phone box library, The Navigator pub and Thai restaurant, and a
Chinese takeaway fish and chip shop. The OFSTED ‘Good‘ village
primary school is just across the border into Great Shelford and
there are excellent further facilities in that larger village
including a post office, a butcher, a chemist, two supermarkets,
hairdressers, GP surgery and dentist.
For the commuter there are good cycle routes into the City and
to Addenbrooke‘s Hospital and the Biomedical Campus, Junction 11 of
the M11 is about 2.5 miles 4 km away and Great Shelford mainline
station Cambridge and London Liverpool Street is about 1.5
miles.
