PROPERTY DETAILS

The entrance hall is a pleasant welcome to this chain-free and deceptively spacious bungalow, with access to all rooms and an airing cupboard with shelving for towels and linen. The three bedrooms comprise a particularly generous master, with scope for an en suite to be added; two further double bedrooms, the second, formally the garage, also provides access to the garden and could easily be utilised as an office instead. Refitted in recent years, the shower room is well planned and comprises a WC and hand basin in a traditional style with wood panelling to the walls, a double walk-in shower with electric shower and wet wall panelling.

The modern fitted kitchen comprises a comprehensive range of wall and base units in a cream gloss finish with built-in oven, electric hob, space for a fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine, a built-in dishwasher and access into the impressive open plan lounge/dining room. The thoughtfully designed room features an area for a dining table, plus space for sofas. There is a wall-mounted electric fire, plus Velux windows to the vaulted ceiling and French doors lead nicely to the wonderful garden.

OUTSIDE AND PARKING

Located just off the High Street and tucked away at the end of a particularly quiet and established cul de sac, with fields beyond the rear garden. A block paved driveway provides off-road parking to the front, with well-stocked raised timber beds, flowering fruit trees and a Wisteria. The gated access leads to the rear garden which has been landscaped to allow for wheelchair access. There are ramps providing access to the lawn area with well-stocked borders creating interest and colour throughout the seasons, various soft fruit bushes and an established hedgerow is a haven for garden birds. Included in the sale is a timber shed and a paved patio area with a pergola provides the perfect space for outdoor dining.

LOCATION

Longstanton is an area of interest to many buyers from Cambridge because of the advantage of the guided busway which runs every 7 minutes into Cambridge and then onto Cambridge station and Addenbrooke's hospital. The village is also only 2.5 miles from the A14 and 5 miles from the M11.

There is a good community spirit within the village which holds various events including a local market and summer fayre. You can also find regular events and classes at the primary school or Northstowe Secondary School and regular sports events are held at the recreation ground and The Pavilion.

Facilities in Longstanton include two nurseries (one private, one preschool at the primary school), a primary school, a village institute, doctors and dentist surgery, veterinary surgery, public house, village store with post office, fish and chip shop and a co-operative store.

There are several parks and a large green space, Northstowe Western Park, offering recreational activities within a minute’s walk.

The village will benefit further from a wider choice of facilities on offer from the neighbouring purpose-built town of Northstowe that is currently in development.
