Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac shared with just seven other homes, this beautifully presented, modern single-storey residence enjoys a prime position in one of South Cambridgeshire’s most desirable villages. Offering generous accommodation, landscaped walled gardens, private driveway parking, and a detached garage, this home blends comfort, space, and convenience in equal measure.

Built in the mid-1990s to an exceptionally well-considered layout, the property has been lovingly maintained and enhanced throughout. A welcoming reception hall introduces the home, featuring a useful airing cupboard with hot water cylinder and linen shelving.

The light-filled sitting room enjoys direct access to the garden via elegant French doors, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow ideal for entertaining or relaxing. The refitted kitchen combines functionality and style, with a range of attractive cabinetry, ample worktop space, inset sink and drainer, ceramic hob, oven, extractor fan, and space for appliances including fridge/freezer and washing machine. The wall-mounted gas boiler is also neatly housed here, and the Karndean flooring adds a smart finishing touch.

Externally, the property sits within a well maintained walled gardens to the front, side, and rear, laid mainly to lawn and complemented by mature flowerbeds, shrubs, and a paved patio—ideal for al fresco dining. Gated access leads to the private driveway and detached garage, which benefits from power, lighting, and a personal door to the garden.
