A bright, semi detached bungalow, set in a generous corner
plot, with a sunny west facing garden and off road parking. The
property is located at the end of a cul de sac, close to the
village centre and the railway station, and is within easy cycling
distance of the Addenbrookes campus. No upward chain.
Approached over a neat front garden there is a driveway for
parking, and path leading to the front door with a lawn to one
side. The front door is set beneath a canopy giving protection from
the elements as you go in, and the entrance hall has beautiful wood
flooring and a built in cupboard. The bungalow is nicely presented
and well planned with all the rooms leading off the hallway.
The sitting room is a good size with glazed patio doors
extending the width of the room providing lots of light and giving
access to the rear garden, there is a fireplace inset with a gas
fire and beautiful wood flooring. The kitchen is dual aspect and
has been refitted with modern cabinets set above and below
beautiful granite working surfaces and there is space for a
dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and cooker. There is a window
to the front and a door leading to the conservatory, which extends
to the side and has windows providing views over the garden and
doors out.
The property has two good double bedrooms, and a family
bathroom fitted with a shower enclosure, w.c. and hand basin.
Outside there are gardens to the front, side, and rear. The
rear garden enjoys a high degree of privacy, is west facing, and is
predominantly laid to lawn with a large patio adjacent to the
building and a garden shed.
Poplar Close is brilliantly positioned off Station Road, a
short walk from the village‘s main shops and other facilities on
Woollards Lane but tucked away enough to carry no through
traffic.
Great Shelford is one of the most sought after villages south
of the City thanks to its easy access to town and the Addenbrooke‘s
campus by road, regular buses and the DNA cycle path. For the
commuter, the railway station offers services direct to London
Liverpool Street or into Cambridge city centre.
The village has excellent day to day facilities including a
supermarket, deli, hairdressers, doctors, dentist, dispensing
chemist, a pub, restaurants, and more. The primary school is very
well regarded and there are various community facilities and social
clubs. The large recreation ground has a new pavilion, tennis club
and sports pitches and annually hosts the excellent Shelford Feast
festival.
It is a great community for those looking for a balance of
convenience and traditional village feel and offers the real
possibility of living day to day without the need to regularly
drive out of the village.
