This detached Edwardian house represents a remarkable opportunity for renovation in the charming village of Caldecote, located just east of Cambridge. Set on an expansive plot of approximately 0.8 acres, this property is not currently habitable, having been entirely stripped down to its shell. The potential here is substantial; a buyer can reimagine the space and create a stunning family home that capitalizes on its elevated position with views overlooking the local church.
The structure features classic brick elevations beneath a slate roof and has a previous layout encompassing essential rooms: a living room, kitchen, cloakroom, and hall on the ground floor, along with three bedrooms and a shower room upstairs. The internal area totals about 1,000 square feet.
While not listed, it resides within the Caldecote Conservation Area, adding value to the right renovation. Also included are several outbuildings — timber storage sheds and a four-bay pole barn — which could serve various functions after refurbishment.
Notably, some initial renovation work has already begun; Helical-style supports have been installed to strengthen both internal and external walls. However, due to time constraints faced by the current owner, this opens up an exciting chance for new owners to complete what promises to be an impactful restoration project.
Nestled opposite the picturesque village church and accessible via a private driveway with steep gradients, Burrleigh House offers both privacy and community charm. Its generous gardens with established trees present additional landscape potential for outdoor enjoyment or further development.
