OUTSIDE AND PARKING

To the front of the proeprty is a small green with mature trees. The vendors are keen gardeners and this is very apparent, the outside of this property is an absolute credit to them. With a well-planned array of palms and ferns with grey slate, there is also a gravel area providing space for bins to be stored and a gated access leads to a covered courtyard which includes a brick store and the porcelain paved patio extends to the side and rear of the proeprty, providing a perfect area for outdoor dining, with a pergola offering shade and privacy. The well-stocked borders are full of a variety of established shrubs and cottage-style perennials, with fencing to the boundaries and an expanse of lawn.

To the front of the property, there are multiple parking bays, and with this particular property, there is a single brick-built garage.

PLANNING PERMISSION

There is planning permission for a two-storey extension to the side of the property. Please find details using South Cambs Planning portal ref: S/2252/14/FL

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