Situated on a generous plot of approximately 0.17 acres, this two-bedroom home offers well-balanced accommodation with scope for modernisation or extension (STPP). The property benefits from a substantial garden, ample off-road parking, and a large timber garage/workshop, making it an ideal choice for buyers seeking outdoor space and potential.
The property is approached via a block-paved driveway which provides off-street parking. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn and bordered by mature trees and hedging, offering privacy and kerb appeal.
A small entrance porch leads into the main hallway, where stairs rise to the first floor. The front reception room features a bay window and a central electric fireplace set within a chimney breast, creating a cosy living space. The second reception room is positioned at the rear and includes a useful understairs storage cupboard, along with access to both the conservatory and kitchen.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, offering ample workspace. It includes an integrated oven with electric hob and extractor, as well as space and plumbing for a fridge/freezer, washing machine, and tumble dryer. A skylight brings in additional natural light. The ground-floor bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, WC, and wash hand basin.
Upstairs, the property provides two bedrooms. The main bedroom also includes a WC and wash hand basin for added convenience.
Externally, the property truly stands out. The rear garden is a key feature, mainly laid to lawn with a selection of mature trees and hedging, providing excellent privacy and space for families or gardening enthusiasts. At the begining of the garden is a large timber garage/workshop, ideal for storage, hobbies, or as a home workshop.
The property has oil fired central heating.
Barton is amongst the most desirable of the south Cambridgeshire villages, thanks to its charming countryside, character and brilliant access into the city and to the M11. There are purpose-built cycleways alongside the A603 giving a particularly good commute into town by bike and a bridleway over to Grantchester which serves as part of a 4.5-mile cycle commute to Addenbrooke's and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus.
The village has a particularly good range of facilities for its size including a post office and general store, a timber/building/diy store, two pubs, a recreation ground, a meadow and an Ofsted-rated 'Good' Primary School that feeds into Comberton Village College and Sixth Form. It is also home to Burwash Manor Barns, a collection of independent shops, a café, and an exhibition venue that hosts various events throughout the year.
Countryside surrounds the village and there are numerous pleasant walks across the fields, including a walk to Grantchester.
