Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
A most impressive and substantial detached Grade II Listed Old Rectory extending to about 10,000 square feet standing within its own grounds of about 1.38 acres with a useful range of outbuildings

The Old Rectory is in need of comprehensive refurbishment and offers an extremely rare opportunity to restore this magnificent home to its former glory. The property retains many of its original attractive architectural features and occupies a most desirable location within this popular village conveniently located, just 20 minutes from Cambridge, to the north west of the city enjoying easy access to major road and rail links.

The Old Rectory is a, circa 10,057 sqft, substantial Georgian detached residence built circa 1830. The building has twenty six rooms; a six room barrel vaulted cellar, five reception rooms, including a billiard room and potentially twelve to fourteen bedrooms as well as six bathrooms. Historically there was a Gun Room, Boot Room, Silver Room, Sewing Room, Cold Store and Pantry. This fine home has been in the family's ownership for many years and now requires significant refurbishment throughout, many of the fine architectural features have been retained and much of the internal joinery has been removed and preserved.

The accommodation is arranged over four floors with extensive barrelled roofed cellars about 1334 sqft; the ground floors extends to about 3469 sqft with grand original reception rooms as well as elegant staircases and central atrium to the first and second floors. The first floor extends to about 3393 sqft with first floor billiard room and bedrooms with additional bedrooms on the second floor, which extends to about 1861 sqft with ladder access to the roof where you can enjoy far reaching views of the adjoining countryside.

The grounds in all extend to about 1.38 acres with a range of fine trees, lawn and sweeping driveway giving access to The Old Rectory and neighbouring properties.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. 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
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
