A substantial and beautifully refurbished four-bedroom detached residence, originally constructed circa 1900 and subsequently extended to provide approximately 229.5 sq m (2,479 sq ft) of versatile and well-appointed accommodation arranged over two floors.
Occupying a prominent and convenient position in the heart of Cottenham High Street, the property combines the character and proportions of an older home with a contemporary internal layout, having been recently refurbished and thoughtfully reconfigured to create spacious accommodation ideally suited to modern family living.
The ground floor provides an impressive and particularly versatile arrangement, centered around a generous entrance hall featuring a striking floor-to-ceiling atrium, creating a wonderful sense of light and space upon entering the property. There are three reception rooms comprising a living room, a snug and a playroom, offering excellent flexibility for family life, entertaining and home working. A useful utility room provides a range of built-in cupboards and valuable storage, whilst the substantial kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home. Generously proportioned and opening directly onto the rear garden, this is an ideal space for both everyday family life and entertaining.
To the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, together with a spacious family bathroom fitted with both a separate shower and bath. The impressive master bedroom suite enjoys a particularly desirable arrangement, featuring double-aspect windows, a generous walk-in wardrobe and a well-appointed en-suite shower room. The remaining three bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for family members or guests.
Externally, the property benefits from a private rear garden, a substantial driveway providing ample off-road parking, and a versatile home office/garden studio, ideal for those requiring dedicated workspace away from the main house.
Further benefits include solar panels to the roof, complemented by a 5 kW battery storage system, providing an energy-efficient addition to the property.
