A stunning five bedroom detached barn-style property extending to approximately 2525 Sqft, offering spacious and flexible accommodation. Set within mature gardens and grounds with approximately 0.34 acres and tucked away at the end of a private driveway within this popular village.

The property enjoys a wonderful position set back from the road and accessed via a long private gravel driveway, which opens to a generous gravel parking area accommodating several vehicles and leading to a cart lodge and adjoining garage/workshop. The property was largely re-built in 2010 to a spacious and luxury barn style dwelling offering extremely versatile and beautifully presented accommodation.

The accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall area with stairs to a vaulted landing above. The kitchen/breakfast family room is fitted with bespoke cabinetry, solid oak work surfaces with inset one and a half sink unit with matching preparation island/ breakfast bar. There are a range of integral appliances including a four ring ceramic hob, double oven extractor and under counter fridge plus space for an American style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The bespoke kitchen cabinetry is mirrored in the utility room which also has space for all the usual white goods.

There are two large reception rooms including a triple aspect sitting room with wood burning stove and a dual aspect drawing room with attractive wood paneling. Just off the kitchen is a dining room area, office and cloakroom/WC.

Upstairs, off the galleried landing are five good sized bedrooms plus a luxury en suite shower room to the master bedroom and a four piece family bathroom which includes a separate shower cubicle and free standing bath tub. Bedroom two has a walk in closet which could easily be converted into another en suite should a purchaser require.

Outside, the gardens and grounds extend to over 0.34 acres and is laid mainly to lawn with well stocked flower borders and beds, a wide selection of trees and bushes, a generous part covered patio area. Nestled at the back of the garden is a timber lodge which would make an ideal home office space or indeed somewhere to pursue a hobby. All enjoy maximum levels of privacy and seclusion.

Location - Highfields Caldecote derives its name from the two parishes that make up the combined village which is located approximately seven miles west of Cambridge and is situated off the A428 Bedford Road.

A wider range of facilities are available in nearby village Cambourne (three miles) including a Morrisons supermarket, doctors' surgery, day care nursery and hotel.

Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
