Description
Cambridge 14 miles, Huntingdon 4 miles (King's Cross 50 minutes), St Ives 3 miles, A14 0.75 of a mile (distances and time are approximate).
Thorpe Close House is believed to date from 1848 and is built with brick elevations under a tiled roof. Delightfully situated, the property is set well back from the road, in large established gardens and grounds, towards the end of a no-through road. The property has been owned for the past 46 years by the same family and although well-presented, offers a unique opportunity for prospective purchasers to update and modernise the property to their own requirements.
The picturesque village of Hemingford Grey and its sister village, Hemingford Abbots, provide a good range of local facilities. Hemingford Grey has an award winning public house/restaurant, general store, primary school, 12th century church of St James, church hall, post office, farm shop and sports and social club with facilities for tennis, squash, cricket, bowls and football. Hemingford Abbots has an attractive village square, the Axe and Compass public house and a golf range.
For the commuter, there is a mainline railway station at Huntingdon providing a fast service to London's King's Cross in about 50 minutes and the nearby A14 provides access to the A1 to the north and the M11/Stansted Airport/M25 to the south. There is also a guided busway at St Ives (about 3 miles) providing an excellent service between Huntingdon and Cambridge and a dedicated cycle lane from St Ives to Cambridge Science Park.
