An elegant, beautifully presented, detached family home, set
in a quiet location, in the shadow of the parish church, with a
west facing garden, double garage, and off road parking. Offered
with no upward chain.
Set back behind a beautifully maintained front garden, there
is a double garage and a parking area close to the roadside and a
winding path leads over a lovely lawned front garden to the front
door which is framed by a mature wisteria. The entrance hall is
welcoming with the staircase leading to the first floor and there
is a useful coat cupboard and cloakroom off.
The sitting room to the front of the house is a bright,
generously proportioned room with an attractive bay window
providing lots of light and views over the garden. Double doors
open to the dining room and a handsome, double sided stove is set
between the two rooms. The dining room is very generously
proportioned and has a large westerly facing window overlooking the
garden and southerly facing patio doors which together flood the
room with natural light. The study is off the sitting room and this
again enjoys a westerly aspect and views over the garden.
On the ground floor, there is also a very generous, dual
aspect kitchen fitted with underfloor heating and a range of high
quality kitchen cabinets set above and below the working surfaces.
There is a sink and drainer set below a large window overlooking
the front garden, an integrated fridge freezer, and space for a
dishwasher, a large range cooker, and a washing machine. Patio
doors provide lovely views over the garden and give access
out.
On the first floor, the landing is bright with a window on the
landing providing light over the stairwell. There are four
bedrooms, three doubles, and a single and a modern family bathroom
fitted with a bath with shower over, concealed cistern w.c. and
hand basin. The main bedroom has two large fitted wardrobes and an
en suite with a large shower enclosure, w.c. and hand basin. The
second bedroom also benefits from a double wardrobe, and bedrooms
two, three, and four all have views over the rear garden.
Outside the rear garden is beautifully maintained and benefits
from a westerly aspect, enjoying lots of afternoon and evening
sunshine. There is a generous patio adjacent to the house bordered
by mature shrub beds, and there are trees, shrubs, climbers, and an
area of lawn. The garden backs onto bungalows so it enjoys a high
degree of privacy.
Agents note Bancroft Farm which is in poor condition is
opposite this property and is currently on the market with planning
to provide a small select development that will improve and enhance
the area.
Little Abington and Great Abington are an attractive,
traditional pair of villages about 6 miles southeast of Cambridge.
They have an OFSTED ‘Good‘ primary school that feeds into the well
regarded Linton Village College, a post office shop, a lovely pub
restaurant, a sports ground and active cricket club, a village
hall, and a hairdresser.
For commuters the A11, which links down to the M11, is only a
mile away and Cambridge is easily accessed along either the A1307
or A1301. Whittlesford Parkway mainline station Cambridge and
London Liverpool Street is about 4 miles away.
Abington has its own major science park, Granta Park, which
can be reached easily on foot or by bike on a footpath off the High
Street and neighbouring Babraham‘s science park is less than 2
miles away with a pleasant cycle and foot route over the A11
starting near the end of Bourn Bridge Road.
