Old School Court, Great Shelford, Cambridge

A generously proportioned two bedroom luxury ground floor apartment with a small courtyard garden, access to communal gardens and grounds and located right at the heart of the village.

The property was constructed in 2011 by the highly reputable and award winning Hill Partnership. The development has matured beautifully with established trees and planted beds creating a peaceful setting in the heart of Great Shelford with all the amenities on the doorstep.

The apartment is located on the ground floor to the rear of the block. The apartment offers bright and spacious accommodation with French doors giving access to a small terrace garden area, enclosed by railings and gated access to the communal gardens which are laid mainly to lawn with flower and shrub borders and beds. There is a communal entrance hall with an entry phone system and communal seating area leading to the front door. Once inside the apartment, the accommodation comprises an entrance hall with amtico flooring and a door leading to the sitting/dining room which enjoys a dual aspect with French doors to the private terrace. The well appointed kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with contemporary cabinetry, sile stone working surfaces within set one and a half sink unit, mixer tap and bevel drainer and a range of Siemens appliances including a ceramic hob, fan assisted oven, microwave combination oven/extractor hob, full height fridge/freezer and a washing machine.

There are two double bedrooms, the master bedroom benefits from a four piece en suite bathroom, including a shower and bath. The other bedroom is serviced by a luxury shower room. There is allocated parking for one car plus visitor parking. The development is run by elected resident Directors who are in charge of the maintenance of the communal electricity areas, communal gardening areas and external window cleaning at a cost of £2210 per annum. The residents also have converted, what was the original site office, to a rather pleasant meeting room called the Task room where coffee mornings and yoga sessions are a regular occurrence and gives the scheme an individual and community feel.
