This delightful home sits in a quiet spot within the sought-after village of Fen Ditton. The property occupies a generous and mature plot measuring 0.22 acres with a sunny westerly aspect, overlooking the river Cam. Inside, the accommodation is well-proportioned, with large windows providing an abundance of natural light. Notably, house and garage roofs were replaced 2 years ago and new solar panels were installed to the rear roof aspect.
The property also benefits from granted planning permission for a one-bedroom detached bungalow (S/4640/18/FL), of which a block and beam foundation has already been laid. Further information is available upon request. This would certainly benefit those who need dependent relatives to live close by.
The welcoming entrance hall, with stairs to the first floor, leads to all principal rooms. The open plan living/dining room, which has a gas fire, offers versatile use, with bi-folding doors, allowing the study to become part of this space. The study leads into a spacious conservatory with French doors to the garden. The living room benefits from a large, double-glazed window with views across the River Cam. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and eye-level units, two integrated Pyroclean ovens, a gas hob and an induction hob with an overhead extractor and space for a dishwasher and a fridge/freezer. The utility is a good size with space for white goods, built-in storage, and a w.c.
The first floor accommodation is made up of four good-sized double bedrooms and a family shower room with twin basins. Both bedroom one and two have built-in wardrobes and access out to a large roof terrace overlooking the River Cam and fields to the foreground and beyond, giving wonderful views of the Cambridgeshire sunsets. Bedroom one also benefits from a five-piece bathroom with a separate bath and shower.
Outside, there is vehicle access through to the rear of the property via the carport, offering further parking and access to the detached double garage, which benefits from an inspection pit. The garden is generous in size and is enclosed by fencing, mostly laid to lawn with mature fruit trees. A large workshop/shed can also be found nestled behind the garage. To the front of the property, there is driveway parking for multiple vehicles and a mature front garden.
Fen Ditton is a sought-after and pretty riverside village about 3 miles from the centre of Cambridge. The village has popular restaurants/pubs and a primary school. The village is noted for its riverside walks and cycle path to the central city (about 2.5 miles/15 minutes) and High Ditch Road itself provides easy access to major road links and is only 1.4 miles from Cambridge North Railway Station, which has services to London King's Cross and Liverpool Street. The city offers excellent facilities and outstanding schools.
