Description

This charming period home, dating back to 1900, presents a promising opportunity for renovation and personalization. Situated in a desirable location near the centre of Newnham, the property features an east-facing garden, ideal for extension or improvement, subject to planning permission. With no onward chain, this residence allows for immediate engagement in its transformation. The entrance greets you with a solid timber door leading into a welcoming hall that showcases original decorative elements such as an archway and corbels. The open-plan living and dining area is illuminated by natural light from its dual aspect windows and offers built-in shelving that adds character. The kitchen comes equipped with basic units and essential appliances, ready for enhancement to suit modern tastes. A ground-floor bathroom, alongside a separate W.C., completes the main living space. On the upper floor, three bedrooms await – two generously sized doubles and a single bedroom – all equipped with built-in storage options. The landing provides access to an insulated loft space, suggesting potential for further development. The outdoor area is primarily paved with various shrubs and secure gated access to the rear, providing a private sanctuary in an accessible location. Notably, there is potential to extend the garden beyond its current boundaries. Located within walking distance of local amenities including shops and schools, as well as scenic areas like Grantchester Meadows, this property offers both convenience and lifestyle benefits. This home is perfect for those looking to invest time and resources into creating their ideal living space while enjoying the charm of Newnham Village.
