One of just two detached homes constructed in 2008, this detached family home is available to purchase with no onward chain and is located along Cambridge Road, Oakington.
Set back from the road, this four-bedroom family home falls within the catchment of the popular Impington Village College and occupies a generous plot approaching 0.14 acres.
To the ground floor the property comprises an entrance hall with wrap around stairs to the first floor, storage below and a utility room adjoining. The property has two bedrooms to the ground floor each facing the front, and these are served by a fully tiled family bathroom suite with a panelled bath with mixer tap, a low-level WC and a pedestal sink basin. Facing the rear of the property is an impressive living room/dining room which measures 24.9ft in length and has triple aspect windows drawing in large levels of natural light. Off the living area is a kitchen with shaker style cabinetry at both base level and eye level and integrated appliances which include a fridge freezer, a dishwasher, a double oven and four ring gas hob with extractor above.
To the first floor is a generous landing space with a large Velux window above, built in cupboards and offers space for a small desk to utilise the space as a small study. Off the landing are two generous bedrooms, each with built in storage to the eaves. Serving these two bedrooms is a further bathroom suite with a ‘P’ shaped bath, shower above, low level WC and pedestal sink basin.
Externally, to the front of the property is a shared driveway off Cambridge Road, this is then gravelled and provides parking for at least two vehicles to the front of the property. The rear garden is fully enclosed and is accessible on both sides of the property. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with a large hedgerow to one side and a patio area accessible off the sliding doors from the Living Room.
