Convenient for Impington Village College
Within easy reach of the nearby guided busway, this detached, chain free, family home occupies a pleasant corner plot and overlooks the nearby woodland situated within The Coppice, Impington.
Constructed in 1971, this detached family home occupies a generous 0.11-acre plot within a quaint and established cul-de-sac, conveniently positioned close to the nearby guided bus route. Offering approximately 1,229.5 sqft (114.2 sqm) of accommodation arranged over two floors, the property provides well-proportioned and versatile living spaces, ideally suited to family life.
The ground floor accommodation begins with an entrance hallway, with stairs rising to the first floor and a conveniently positioned cloakroom WC. There are two well-proportioned reception rooms, both benefitting from attractive parquet flooring. The living room enjoys a desirable double aspect, allowing for plenty of natural light, whilst the separate formal dining room provides an ideal setting for family dining and entertaining.
Completing the ground floor is a fitted kitchen, offering a range of storage cupboards and drawers at both eye and base-level, together with space for freestanding white goods. A useful pantry, discreetly positioned beneath the staircase, provides additional storage.
To the first floor, the landing provides access to four bedrooms, comprising three generous double bedrooms, each benefitting from built-in wardrobes, and a well-proportioned fourth bedroom, offering flexibility for use as a nursery, guest bedroom or a home office. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom and a separate WC, conveniently serving all four bedrooms.
Externally, the property occupies a generous plot extending to approximately 0.11 acres, which wraps around the house and is enclosed by a combination of walling and fencing. The frontage provides a concrete-laid driveway leading to a double length (tandem) garage, whilst a covered passageway connects the main residence to the garage and provides access from the front to the rear gardens. The wrap-around gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by well-established, mature and herbaceous borders, creating an attractive setting around the property.
Location
Impington and adjoining Histon are widely regarded as two of the most sought-after villages north of Cambridge.
