insight The first thing that drew the homeowner to this property was its classic old English feel. It is charming

and pretty with a wonderfully large garden. The current owner

was a keen gardener and this large plot of land combined with

an idyllic village life made this a lovely home. The garden is the

homeowner’s pride and joy. The large thatch barn to the side of

the house allows ample storage for gardening equipment. They

also have a paved patio where they can sit out in the summer

months and enjoy the views. In the spring the garden really comes

into its own and is full of life and colour.


The property has been well maintained by the current homeowner over the years and has oil fired radiator central

heating, and the thatch has recently been renovated. If someone

wished to move in tomorrow they easily could, everything has been

well cared for and updated. A kitchen/diner has been created by

merging two smaller rooms to create a large, open plan social

area. The sitting room is the focal point of the home with a

functional open fireplace with stunning views to the front

and rear of the property. As well as this, the home provides an

ideal amount of privacy. It is secluded with no overlooking houses

allowing you to remain private if you wish, or immerse yourself in

village life.




The current homeowner will miss a lot about the property but mainly the friendly local people and beautiful village. Everyone is incredibly welcoming and the village has a

charming, rural atmosphere, especially if you visit the attractive bistro pub called the ‘Eltisley’ and the Cade which is the thatched cricket pavilion. There are beautiful country walks down

the lane, and the village events that happen throughout the year are popular and encourage everyone to take part. Approximately a 10 minutes’ drive away is St Neots railway station with

superb links into London and Peterborough. You can be in central London within 40 minutes with trains running twice an hour. As well as this, the village has its own primary school and

nursery which is especially useful. Cambridge can be reached within 20 minutes too and offers fantastic state and private schools, shops, tourist attractions and of course University colleges.
