Full Description

Charming and highly individual period cottage (freehold) within sought after village. The cottage, built over 170 years ago, has two two-storied extensions built circa 30 years ago. The front elevation of the cottage is of solid brick construction, and the original side elevation is rendered externally and is of clunch or clay bat construction. The cottage benefits from slate flooring in the kitchen, terracotta flooring through most of the downstairs and either carpets or timber boarding upstairs. All original windows have been replaced with timber double-glazed units apart from the two original single-glazed metal windows in the front elevation that have been fitted with quality secondary glazing. From the outside the property presents an attractive laurel hedge at the back and a curved timber fence at the front, with attractive, cultivated gardens and the front and back. The property benefits from four bedrooms, including two double bedrooms (one with en-suite shower room), a large dining room that fits a table for eight people with a french door to the garden, a large lounge/living room with a pass-through window to the kitchen, an office/music room (that is big enough to be used as the fifth bedroom) downstairs, a bathroom and a downstairs toilet. The property is located in a conservation area of a charming village, within a few hundred yards of a local primary school, and within catchment area of a nearby Village collage, as well as easy access to many good schools in Cambridge. Haslingfield is a vibrant village, with a strong and established community, hosting many clubs, societies and festivals, including https://www.haslingfieldlittletheatre.co.uk/, http://www.haslingfieldscarecrowfestival.org/ and https://clubspark.lta.org.uk/haslingfieldLTC. Haslingfield benefits from multiple cycling routes into Cambridge, and nearby railway stations to Cambridge or London: Shepreth (2.7 miles) and Whittlesford Parkway (5.7 miles).
