2 bedroom terraced bungalow for sale

A bright, well maintained bungalow, set in a quiet location, fronting onto a pedestrian only area with a private garden, outbuildings, and plenty of parking onsite. Offered with no upward chain.

The property enjoys pleasant views to the front over a small green and to the rear there is a walled boundary backing onto mature trees.

Approached over a path, the front door opens to a generous porch/sunroom that is fitted with privacy glass so it can be enjoyed as a sitting area overlooking the front. The Entrance hall is welcoming and there is a large walk-in storage cupboard off.

The sitting room is generously proportioned and overlooks the front green, there is plenty of space for a sitting area and a dining area adjacent to the serving hatch. The adjacent kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets above and below the working surfaces, and there is space for a washing machine, dishwasher and for a cooker with extractor over. There is a breakfast bar for casual dining, and a part glazed door gives access to the garden.

The property has two double bedrooms, a very generous main room with views over the front, and a smaller double with views over the rear garden. The bathroom is modern and fitted with a showerbath with a curved screen, w.c., and handbasin.

Outside the garden enjoys a high degree of privacy and is laid to lawn with shrub borders and a patio adjacent to the building. There is a brick built outbuilding and a storage shed.

The property is located close to the recreation ground and is in an ideal spot for access to the primary school, it is also at the right end of the village for the railway station, parish church, village shop, and the Tickell Arms, gastro pub.

Whittlesford - The Tickell Arms is a marvelous name for a pub. If you’re local you probably take it for granted, but it really is. Like The Pemberton Arms in Harston it’s actually named after the local Lords of the Manor, the Tickell family, and strictly speaking, it’s said tick-ell rather than tick-ull. Pronounce it the correct way if you must but know the rest of us are having more fun. If that’s not enough moniker merriment, Whittlesford’s other pub is called The Bees in the Wall. It does not contain literal bees in the literal wall, just good traditional pub cheer. The local shop and post office doesn’t have a name I don’t think, or if it does it’s something like Whittlesford Shop. A missed opportunity perhaps.

Other things in the village include a primary school that feeds Sawston VC, a large village green and various pleasant walks out into the countryside. Oh, and only a mainline railway station at its south edge! Taking you into Cambridge in 10-12 minutes, Stansted Airport in a bit under 30 minutes and Liverpool Street in about an hour. The M11 is super easy to get to at junction 9 and neighbouring Sawston or the Shelfords have doctors, supermarkets and all the other day-to-day things you might need. Plus it’s a handsome village of winding roads and fine old buildings.
