Description:
The Willows is a enchanting and appealing Grade II listed thatched cottage which has been lovingly and beautifully restored by the current owners since they purchased it in 2021. It has been thoughtfully extended to the rear providing a perfect balance of more modern proportions with the original character of the timber framed building.
There is a lovely galley kitchen, with a useful utility room opening the courtyard, leading through the family/dining room with a fireplace fitted with a woodburning stove. A further door leads through the cosy sitting room. Stairs from this room lead up to the principal bedroom suite, complete with two dressing rooms (one of these could easily be converted into an en-suite). On the ground floor are three further bedrooms, one currently used as a study, and two bathrooms. This delightful property offer flexible accommodation and the opportunity to further extend to create a larger family home, if required. It is a true “chocolate box” cottage in a stunning location.
Outside:
The property is approached via a shared, no-through road and is accessed via two sets of vehicular gates opening to the gravelled in-and-out driveway providing parking for a number of cars. There is also a detached single garage/workshop. The wonderfully secluded and peaceful gardens of The Willows, named after the magnificent willow trees at the front, are beautifully planted and maintained by the current owners. There is an array of mature flowering shrubs and planted and an established hedge across the front provides additional privacy. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with lovely, private al-fresco dining and relaxation areas. There is a garden shed, tucked to the side of the cottage, ideal for storing garden machinery, furniture etc.
Location:
Abbotsley village is a highly sought after and picturesque village surrounded by unspoilt rural farmland and countryside. It is a great option for those wanting to enjoy village life whilst being a short drive from local amenities. There is also a local pub, in walking distance, which serves good food. For those needed to commute there is easy access to a mainline railway station and quick links to the A428 providing fast road links to Cambridge and other road networks. Extensive shopping facilities are available in nearby Biggleswade.
