This three-bedroom mid-terraced house nestled in the quaint hamlet of Knapwell presents a significant renovation opportunity for prospective buyers. With approved planning permission for a single-storey rear extension (Ref: 25/04295/hful), this home allows for substantial enhancements to the living space, making it an appealing project for those looking to craft their ideal family residence. The property is accessed by a footpath leading from the High Street and features a spacious front garden primarily laid to lawn with potential to convert into off-road parking, subject to necessary permissions. A shared side access provides entry to the rear garden.
Stepping inside, you are greeted by an entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor, revealing the extensive modernisation needed throughout. The sitting room at the front is generously sized with large windows offering views of the garden and an existing fireplace that could be restored as a focal point. This connects through to a dining area that invites possibilities for reconfiguration.
The kitchen overlooks the rear garden and has a pantry cupboard which could be removed to optimize space. Notably, glazed doors from the dining room lead out to the garden, highlighting potential for creating an open-plan kitchen/dining area by integrating these two spaces into one contemporary area. Additionally, brick-built outbuildings featuring a WC and various storage/workshop areas are present and could either be updated or cleared away in favor of utilizing the approved extension plans.
Upstairs features three bedrooms alongside a family bathroom that requires comprehensive refurbishment. Two well-sized double bedrooms at the front benefit from scenic countryside views while a comfortable single bedroom at the back offers versatility as an office or nursery.
The rear garden showcases serene views backing onto open countryside, enhancing its peaceful ambiance within this semi-rural setting. The landscape is complemented by nearby nature reserves, ensuring that future development does not detract from its tranquil atmosphere.
Knapwell itself is conveniently located approximately 10 miles west of Cambridge with easy access to neighbouring villages such as Boxworth and Elsworth, alongside Cambourne’s local amenities including shops and recreational facilities.
