Picturesque Grade II Listed Cottage in highly desirable village location. This charming Grade II Listed character cottage enjoys a delightful location just 0.3 miles from the village green, nestled within mature, private gardens and grounds that span approximately a third of an acre. The property has been enhanced, with a range of sympathetic improvements, including a complete rethatch (in 2022), rewiring, new electric heating, and landscaping. The kitchen and bathroom have been upgraded with luxury fittings, while preserving the home's original character and charm. The accommodation features an entrance porch leading to a reception hall, both adorned with brick floors, and a utility room/cloakroom/WC nearby. The kitchen/breakfast room has been modernized with sleek handle less white gloss cabinets, solid wood countertops, an inset ceramic 1½ sink with mixer tap and drainer, deep pan drawers, and pull-out larder cupboards. It includes a variety of integral appliances such as a four-ring Neff induction hob, double oven, extractor, dishwasher, and wine fridge, along with space for an American-style fridge-freezer. The living room highlights an inglenook fireplace and numerous exposed timber beams, while the dining room has also previously served as a ground floor bedroom for guests. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, both featuring vaulted ceilings, and a luxurious refitted en-suite shower room. Outside, the property is set back from the road behind a picturesque cottage garden. A spacious gravel driveway offers ample parking for vehicles. The rear garden is a standout feature of the property, with manicured lawns, well-stocked flower and shrub borders, a wildlife pond, and two timber sheds. A diverse selection of specimen trees, including fruit-bearing varieties, enhances the garden, which offers scenic views over the paddocks at the rear. The vendor has obtained Pre-Application Planning advice from South Cambs regarding a proposed 1.5 storey extension to the rear of the cottage. The Council's official response confirms that the principle of extending is likely to be supported. Further information available from the agent. View payable Stamp Duty for this property
