Potton End, Eltisley

A lovely Grade 11 listed home that has been greatly improved and extended over the years to provide a large and versatile family home but retains all of the original character of a thatched cottage.
The property provides three reception rooms within the oldest part of the house while the extension provides a guest ground floor suite with its own front door and essentially works well for elderly members of the family or someone requiring there own space.
The kitchen is impressive in size with high ceilings and electric Aga (also a latter extension).
On the ground floor there is another bedroom with en-suite with a further two bedrooms and extra space upstairs.
Outside there is a lovely large garden with fields on three sides. A summer house and a large workshop and parking for four plus vehicles complements this unique property situated in the lovely village of Eltisley giving easy access to Cambridge, St Neots and beyond.

ELTISLEY VILLAGE Eltisley is a charming, delightful village situated approx. 11 miles from Cambridge and approx. 5.5 miles from St Neots.
Unusually, the village has two village greens though now one has been turned into a picnic area and park. The Parish church of St Pandionia has an interesting story where legend has it that Pandionia, the daughter of a Scottich king, fled to Eltisley to avoid an arranged marriage. She is said to be buried within the grounds.
The village has a picturesque green, cricket club, thatched pavilion with bar, 13th century parish church, primary school and public house/restaurant and a day nursery.
The name Eltisley hints at its Anglo-Saxon roots as a settlement of woodland. In the Doomsday Book, Eltisley was known as Hecteslei.
Cambourne, approx. 3 miles east has shopping facilities, doctors surgery, cafes and restaurants,
