Description

A beautiful 1930s detached family home located on the outskirts of Cambridge in the clever location of Landbeach. The home is an absolute credit to its owners who have created a modern, yet sympathetic to the period, property that oozes charm and appeal.

Offering no less than 2,400 sq ft of lovingly crafted accommodation, this immaculate property offers a fantastic and spacious family home all within easy reach of Cambridge and London, with Waterbeach station only a few minutes away (providing direct access into Kings Cross).
The kitchen, typically the hub of this home, is a stunning space which works so well with the beautiful conservatory (Incidentally one of the nicest conservatories we have seen in a long while). Superb quality and design, and complements the house and kitchen so well. Ideal for entertaining and summer bbqs.

The property is in excellent condition throughout, you can tell that the owners have loved living here and have put much thought and expense into the property to create and enhance this wonderful home.

Outside Space
The frontage - A gravel drive provides parking for approx 10 vehicles as well as access to both of the garages that flank either side of the house.

A word or two from the vendors:

We have been here nearly 24 years. We fell in love with kitchen and conservatory. The space the house offered us was superb as we had 5 daughters coming and going, we needed plentiful parking for all of us and our guests. The garages and workshop that we added provided valuable extra storage that the family needed. The workshop could be utilised for numerous things, such as, summer house, games room, office, gym etc etc. One idea could be to add windows or French doors to the rear of the workshop that overlooks a mini golf course.

We had the garden designed to pick up on the angles of the conservatory, added the decking and the pond.

What we hadnt realised when we moved here, was how handy being so close to Waterbeach station would be. We have used it a lot and its been so easy and useful. The whole family have utilised it over the years, from our daughters to our grandchildren. This makes it super easy for Cambridge or Kings Cross. The new guided bus service will make access to Cambridge easier still.

The loft space is huge, and arguably this space could be utilised further. Its partly boarded.

The 2nd bedroom is big enough to take a small en-suite if someone so desired.

Someone may wish to do more with the outside frontage space, but it has served us well for parking for both us and guests and also clients when we work from home.

We have planted the trees to the left side as you face the house and installed a micro-jet irrigation system which has been instrumental in keeping everything including the hanging baskets healthy and alive, particularly in the summer months.

Much of the house has bespoke blinds, which we will leave as well as the curtains, as we know how useful it is to not have to worry about these items when you move in.

The exterior (garden) lighting is Alexa controlled with smart switches, so this makes it effortless to set and control.

Other items like white goods may be negotiable, subject to what we need to take or what others may bring.

One of the best things we did was to re-shape the kitchen so it now easily accommodates a 12-14 seater table as well as a sofa and theres still more room. Having a sofa in the kitchen is also something we would love to have in our next house. As the hub of the home its been really nice to have a seat to relax in with a cup of tea or coffee.

We also installed the 6 gas burner range cooker with electric ovens as the previous one here was tiny. Weve also added lots of additional storage and drawer space.

We added brand new bi-folds last year to the kitchen which are great.

Also noteworthy is that the boiler was replaced a few months back and this has a 10 year warranty on it.

Many of the lights are dimmable which people often forget about when installing low voltage led lighting.

The loft was insulated last year, and has made a huge difference.

Locally, we have enjoyed many a dog walk at Milton Country Park, theres a really lovely kids playground just down the road with Zip-wire , tennis courts, football pitches and numerous other things. The other side of the road theres a meadow where people walk and for dog walkers. Theres also another park in Waterbeach that has a skateboard park. Weve also enjoyed many numerous walks along the river as well as the pubs in the locality inc. in Horningsea. You can also cycle from here into Cambridge along the river or indeed, walk. Ely and its magnificent Cathedral is also not far away.

Waterbeach primary school is not far away and we have heard good reports about it. Theres also Impington and Cottenham village college. Others include the excellent private school at Kings Ely.

The road network with A10/A14/M11 has been really useful for work as well as visiting friends and family.

The broadband here is now superb. We get 600 or 700mb with fibre straight to the door, 1gigabit is also available if required.

Landbeach has a really nice community, and is often talked of. It has Party in the Park every summer with bands and a beer festival.

Cambridge folk festival is easy from here as you can walk to the station, train in to Cambridge and you dont have to worry about cars, parking, drinking etc.

The Rear Garden:
The garden is very private and enclosed by a mixture of post and rail fencing, and mature planting. Mainly laid to lawn with mature trees and borders. Theres a large BBQ area with decking allowing for a table and chairs for alfresco dining as well a day bed area.
Theres a large workshop at the rear which would work equally as well as a summer house.
The garden backs on to green space (currently used and owned by a neighbour as a golf course).
