High Street, Oakington, Cambridge, CB24

Radcliffe & Rust Estate Agents Cambridge are delighted to offer for let this attractive mid-terrace, three-bedroom house (with converted attic room) in the peaceful village of Oakington, on the popular northwest side of Cambridge. This property is perfectly positioned for someone wanting village life but who needs easy links to the M11, A14 and A428. Oakington is less than seven miles from Cambridge City Centre and a similar distance from Huntingdon, so it is perfect for commuters into either town or those looking for a slower pace of life but still close to all the amenities. Bus services from the village regularly run into Cambridge, and there is a large selection of amenities on your doorstep, including a village shop, post office, a popular public house called The White Horse, a community caf? and a playground/sports field, to name just a few. And schools? High Street is in the catchment area for Oakington Church of England Primary School, rated good in its last Ofsted inspection. Children over 11 usually attend secondary school at nearby Impington Village College.

The house is accessible via the main garden. As you come through the garden gate (opposite the off-road parking area with one space that comes with the tenancy) and walk through the garden, you enter the property. Once inside, you arrive in a hallway, with stairs immediately in front of you leading up to the first floor. On your left is the downstairs toilet with w.c., handbasin (with a fair amount of storage underneath), heated towel rail and a mirrored vanity unit. This is a generous-sized room that would also be handy for storing shoes. Back out in the hallway and across to the other side of the downstairs area, you reach the open-plan lounge/dining room/kitchen. This room is a great size and perfect for a family or couple to enjoy with friends and family. At the far end of the space is the lounge area with one wall made into a central focal point of the room; on this wall is a brick fireplace and surround; on either side are alcoves with built-in storage cupboards and shelving.In the middle of the open plan reception room is plenty of room for a dining table and chairs alongside the standard lounge furniture. This helps to break up the room into different sections for different aspects of everyday life. In fact, it is a practical size and shape for styling in whatever way works for you. There is no door separating the kitchen from the rest of the downstairs area, which means the space is open-plan throughout and sociable for those who enjoy entertaining, cooking and eating! The wooden cupboards, grey worktop and tiles, and wooden floor (spilling in from the hallway) contrast nicely, making the space neutral, welcoming and light. A freestanding washing machine and dishwasher, as well as an integrated fridge-freezer and single oven, will be included as part of the tenancy. Once upstairs, you find yourself on a landing leading to two of the bedrooms and the main bathroom. But the first room you reach immediately in front of you at the top of the stairs is bedroom one, which is a good-sized double and comes with built-in double wardrobes and a beautiful original fireplace. Any tenant fortunate enough to have this in their home really is lucky, as it is an envious feature of any property. The middle room upstairs is the family bathroom. This room has a W.C., handbasin, bath (with shower overhead), and heated towel rail. Bedroom two, at the other end of the landing, is a generous-sized single bedroom, but it would also make a fantastic office, gym or playroom the options are endless! Up onto the second floor, you will find one of the highlights of the property: the attic conversion, creating a third bedroom. The ceiling slopes down on either side, but there is still considerable space for a double bed, and the Velux windows flood the room with light. It really is the perfect place to escape with a book for some well-deserved peace and quiet.Back downstairs, the main front door takes you out into the garden, which is made up of half lawn and a lovely seating area to enjoy with drinks and a barbecue during the warmer months. There is also a shed at the bottom next to the gate to the car park. High Street, Oakington, is in good condition throughout and is a beautiful property to call home. It comes with one allocated parking space in a private off-road parking area and is available from the end of August.
