5 bed detached house for sale

The Green, Great Staughton, St. Neots PE19

Opportunities such as this seldom come around! This individual Neo-Georgian-style family home was constructed for the current sellers in the early 1990s, replacing a smaller property that previously occupied the site.

The property enjoys a superb outlook, with stunning open views, and is situated just under three miles from Kimbolton, which offers a variety of amenities and is home to the sought-after Kimbolton School, a co-educational independent day and boarding school.

The house sits beautifully within its well-stocked grounds, which extend to approximately 2.35 acres and offer considerable scope for further extension or alteration, if required.

Accommodation

Named “Fajara House”, the property is set back from the road and offers elegance and grandeur. Internally, a central hallway provides access to a large living room that extends from the front to the rear of the property. There is also an impressive dining room and a study, perfect for those working from home or equally suited to use as a family room.

The kitchen/breakfast room is situated to the side of the property and has an adjoining snug, which is perfectly positioned to overlook the well-tended grounds. A useful utility room connects the house to the former double garage, which has been converted in recent years into a ground-floor double bedroom with a dressing room and wet room, making it ideal for those considering multigenerational living.

On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities. There is also a further bedroom, accessed either via the landing or through the en-suite bathroom of the principal bedroom, making it potentially ideal for use as a dressing room.

The property benefits from oil-fired central heating, primary double-glazed sash windows and air conditioning in three of the bedrooms and the snug.

The property offers flexible living space and is light and airy throughout, with pleasant garden views from all rooms.

Outside & Area

Outside, there is extensive parking to the front and side of the property on a large gravelled driveway. There is ample space to construct a garage, subject to the necessary planning permission, if required. The frontage features hedgerows and a wide variety of mature trees.

The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with hedged boundaries and a further variety of trees and plants. There is also a large rear patio/terrace area with shrub borders. The garden is a haven for wildlife, whether it be muntjac deer bounding across the grounds, pheasants pecking at the lawn or squirrels scampering.

Great Staughton offers a range of amenities, including a local shop and a butcher’s. There are two public houses, one of which, “The Snooty Tavern”, is just a moment’s walk away. The village also has a primary school.

The location provides good access to the A1 and A45, with the market towns of St Neots (approximately six miles away) and Huntingdon (approximately eleven miles away) readily accessible, along with their respective railway stations.
