The property is approached over a generous block paved driveway to the side of the home providing off-street parking for several cars and access to the single garage, the gardens wrap around the home on all sides.

The accommodation briefly comprises, a large extended reception hall, flooded with natural light, stairs rising to the first floor, cloakroom/utility with a two-piece suite and large fitted cupboard with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer, fitted shelve, window to the side.

The sitting room enjoys a dual aspect and is again flooded with natural light, fireplace with inset gas real effect fire with stone surround and marble hearth, doors from the entrance hall and leading through to the dining room, the dining room is generous with room for a sizeable table, French doors to the rear garden, kitchen fitted with a range of units with ample work surfaces, integrated and spaces for freestanding appliances.

The pedestrian access to the front of the home is from Church Lane and vehicular from Church Close.

Whittlesford - The Tickell Arms is a marvellous 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.
