Description

7 Orchard Way is a superb 4-bedroom detached property set within mature grounds of over 0.27 acres (1089 sqm) tucked away in a peaceful cul de sac in the village of Oakington. The property built in the 60s offers well-planned accommodation with mature, private front and rear gardens with the potential to extend subject to planning.

The front door of the property opens into the welcoming entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor. The living room spans the depth of the property and benefits from a dual aspect filling the room with natural light. The kitchen sits to the back of the property overlooking the gardens and has been comprehensively fitted with a range of wall and base-mounted units, ample work surfaces and integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge, oven and electric hob with an overhead extractor fan. Adjacent to the kitchen the utility room provides a useful additional space for a washing machine and dryer with a door leading to the rear garden. There is also a cloakroom fitted with a basin and toilet. The conservatory was added to the property in 2004 and provides an ideal dining area to entertain with enviable views over the rear garden. The old dining room which completes the ground floor accommodation offers flexibility and is currently used as a home office.

Upstairs the landing leads to four bedrooms and a family bathroom. Of particular note is bedroom one which measures over 3.38m x 3.67m (11'1" x 12') and has extensive space for bedroom furniture. The bathroom has been fitted with a three-piece suite with a shower over the bath, a glass shower screen and finished with attractive tiling.

Outside the south-facing garden offers a high degree of privacy and is predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and plants providing a wonderful retreat. A patio to the back of the property provides an ideal space for alfresco dining while a single garage at the end of the driveway to the property provides useful storage or parking additional to that available outside the garage.

Oakington is an admired village just 5 miles north of Cambridge City Centre, on the guided busway providing easy access to Cambridge and the North Railway Station and Science/Business Parks and also well positioned for access to the A14 and M11 making it convenient for access around the country. There is also a frequent bus service into Cambridge.

The village has a number of small businesses, a primary school, which feeds onto Impington Village College, the White Horse public house, village stores/post office and several large recreational areas including the Oakington Pavilion. Girton, Bar Hill and Longstanton golf clubs are within a few minutes drive.

The nearby villages of Bar Hill and Histon provide additional shopping including a Tesco Superstore. The Guided Busway is a most useful asset to Oakington, running from Huntingdon Railway Station to Trumpington Park & Ride. Cyclists are well catered for with a dedicated cycleway adjacent to the Guided Busway providing safe access to Cambridge Science Park and Cambridge North Station, from where London can be reached in under an hour.

All in all therefore, the village has much to commend it.
