PROPERTY INSIGHT
Ensum Brown are delighted to offer for sale this period cottage with fantastic potential in the highly sought-after south Cambridgeshire village of Shepreth. This property offers a plot of 0.16 acres with the opportunity to extend as neighbouring homes have done. It benefits from a rear garden extending to approx. 200ft, a non-estate location, no upward chain, 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large garage, and huge potential to add further value.

On approach, this period cottage enjoys a non-estate location, offering a lovely generous frontage, a front garden, flower borders, herringbone brick driveway parking, and a long driveway to the side and back. This property would benefit from updating throughout, but offers an excellent opportunity to add extensive value as well as being sold with no upward chain. Upon stepping inside, the entrance hallway has integrated storage, stairs to the first floor, and doors through to the downstairs living space.

The kitchen/breakfast room is a very good size, enjoying two windows and double French doors into the rear garden, a large range of base and wall units, laminate worktops, tiled splashbacks, room for a breakfast table, space for an oven, washing machine, dishwasher and other kitchen appliances.

The lounge is a very good size, enjoying 2 windows to the side, carpets, pendant lighting, a fireplace with gas fire, and ample space for a variety of living room furniture. Via a large archway, the dining room is situated to the front of the property, enjoying an open-plan atmosphere with the lounge, a lovely bay window, carpets, a fireplace, pendant lighting, and lots of room for dining and storage furniture. The layout of the living space is of course flexible.

A downstairs shower room can also be found on the ground floor, enjoying a window to the rear and comprising a shower cubicle, WC and hand wash basin.

Upstairs to the first floor, this period property continues to offer generous accommodation, with the landing leading to two double bedrooms, lots of integrated storage and wardrobe space, and a large family bathroom, comprising a bath, bidet, WC and hand wash basin. The property was previously a 3-bedroom home but had the smaller bedroom converted into the upstairs bathroom.

Outside, to the rear, the garden is an incredible feature, extending to approx. 200ft and benefiting from several lovely spots of interest. It is fully enclosed by fencing, with mature trees dotted throughout, flower borders, vegetable patches, and copious amounts of space to entertain guests. There is a paved patio area just beside the house itself, and access to a large single garage. This property also offers the opportunity to extend to the rear, as neighbouring homes have done.

LOCATION - SHEPRETH
Shepreth is a peaceful civil parish village in South Cambridgeshire, lying 6 miles from the town of Royston and 10 miles from the city of Cambridge. While a small village, there are many attractive benefits, including a variety of shops, tea rooms, and two highly-regarded pubs offering brilliant food, beers, music, and a lively atmosphere.

The village is also home to Shepreth Wildlife Park, a famous local attraction working to conserve all manner of creatures from hedgehogs to owls, meerkats to lynx. Situated to the south of the village, the All Saints Church is a historic 12th Century building and is in regular use today with a small but active congregation. There are many clubs and organisations to join, as well as fitness classes to attend.

Shepreth also benefits from its own railway station, with regular services to both Cambridge and London, and there is a wide range of amenities, including recreation grounds, a village hall which is available for hire, and schools and doctor's surgeries in neighbouring villages.

Since Royston is also very close, residents have access to the many other amenities the town has to offer, such as the leisure centre, sports clubs, dentist's surgeries, and highly-regarded schools for all ages. The A1M and M11 are within a 20-minute drive via the A10/A505, and London Stansted and Luton Airports are both 30-minutes away.

To truly appreciate what this lovely village has to offer, we invite all potential buyers to visit and explore the local area. You won't be disappointed!
