Description

This end-of-terrace period home, set on a substantial plot of approximately 307 square metres and bordered by open fields, presents a remarkable opportunity for renovation and investment. Its strategic location in a desirable village offers promising potential, including possibilities for extending both the side and rear of the property, as well as utilizing the loft space (subject to planning). Entering through the lobby, you'll find a welcoming sitting room that features an open fireplace and a front-facing window, providing natural light and comfort. The rear of the house hosts a kitchen that connects to a conservatory, which overlooks the garden—a perfect spot to envision future updates. Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical ground-floor shower room and WC. The upper level comprises two bedrooms; the main bedroom has views towards the front, while the second bedroom enjoys scenic vistas of the garden and surrounding countryside. A first-floor WC serves both bedrooms, adding convenience. The exterior includes off-street parking along with an attached garage that holds significant potential for conversion or repurposing (pending necessary approvals). The garage is equipped with power and lighting and features an up-and-over door. Additionally, it houses the wall-mounted gas boiler. The generous rear garden is primarily laid to lawn and boasts a large timber shed alongside an open countryside outlook, offering tranquility and privacy while still being close to essential amenities. Harston is well-positioned just south of Cambridge along the A10 corridor, ensuring easy access to various day-to-day facilities. Road access into Cambridge is straightforward, while recent developments such as a dedicated cycle route over the M11 enhance connectivity further into Trumpington and Central Cambridge. Public transport options are also favorable with regular bus services available. This village setting is particularly advantageous for those working at Addenbrooke's Campus or nearby science parks at Melbourn, Abington, and Great Chesterford. Foxton's mainline railway station is conveniently located just 2 miles away, providing swift journeys to both Cambridge (approximately 13 minutes) and London Kings Cross (less than an hour). Local amenities include an Ofsted-rated 'Good' primary school within catchment area, as well as dining options, healthcare facilities with dispensary services, a well-stocked shop featuring a Post Office counter, community resources like a village hall and hair salon, fuel station services, and recreational spaces equipped with recently upgraded playground facilities. This blend of rural charm combined with access to urban conveniences positions this property as an appealing investment opportunity in an increasingly sought-after area.
