The property offers a front garden enclosed with hedging, and a fenced back garden with a patio seating area, established fruit bushes and a cherry tree around the borders and shade from a beautiful willow.

LOCATION

The property is located 200m from Hatton Park preschool and primary school, 350m from the village store with post office and 650m from the local Co-op and fish and chip shop. There are several parks and a large green space, Northstowe Western Park, offering recreational activities within a minute’s walk. Further facilities in Longstanton include two nurseries (one private, one preschool at the primary school), a village institute, doctors and dentist surgery, veterinary surgery and public house. The village will benefit further from a wider choice of facilities on offer from the neighbouring purpose-built town of Northstowe that is currently in development. There is a good community spirit within the village which holds various events including a local market and summer fayre, and regular sports events are held at the recreation ground and The Pavilion. The feel of a vibrant village is combined with excellent connections to Cambridge via buses every 7 minutes on the guided busway, and via the A14 and M11 (only 2.5 / 4 miles away), making it an attractive option for Cambridge commuters.
