Description

55 Hillside Orwell boasts impressive proportions and exceptional presentation throughout, making it an ideal family home with four bedrooms, open-plan living, and two bathrooms.

The property features a spacious driveway that offers ample parking and leads to a garage and workshop, both equipped with power, lighting, and a fitted EV charger.

Stepping through the front door, you’re welcomed into an impressive reception hall fitted with engineered wood flooring and a cozy woodburner, complemented by a convenient cloakroom and utility room.

The main living area is a modern open-plan space flooded with light from a dual aspect. It features a large living room with a woodburner, and an impressive kitchen/dining area fitted with a range of wall and base-mounted units, abundant granite work surfaces, and a central island. Finished with a slate floor, the kitchen includes a Belfast sink, an induction hob with extractor, integrated dishwasher, a range cooker, and a freestanding fridge/freezer. The dining area is perfect for entertaining, enhanced by bi-fold doors that seamlessly connect to the garden for indoor-outdoor living. Additionally, a flexible family space currently serves as a play area, while a study completes the ground floor accommodation.

To the left of the reception hall, two separate staircases provide access to different areas. The first leads to a spacious double bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and a stylish ground-floor bathroom featuring a modern white suite, including a bath with a mixer tap and shower overhead.

The second staircase takes you to the remaining three double bedrooms and a family shower room.

Outside, the garden wraps around the property and has been beautifully landscaped, featuring a lawn surrounded by a mix of walls, wooden panel fencing, and mature shrubs. A patio off the dining room creates an ideal spot for entertaining and alfresco dining.

Orwell is an attractive, traditional Cambridgeshire village about 7 miles southwest of Cambridge and a similar distance north of Royston.

The centre of the village carries very little through traffic and its compact size gives it a close sense of community aided by a thriving primary school, handsome dining pub, general convenience store, post office and hairdresser.

There is a large recreation ground and a Parish Council owned hillside nature reserve that is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest. A 15th Century Parish Church overlooks the village and there is a village hall and Methodist Church. There are tennis and football clubs, singing group, gardening group and a golf society amongst many of the other groups meeting regularly in the village

The National Trust's Wimpole Hall and Home Farm are nearby and can be accessed by a network of footpaths running off Hillside and out into the countryside.

For the commuter the A603 gives easy access into west Cambridge by Barton Road or on to the M11 in about 6 miles. Royston's mainline station gives access to Kings Cross frequently and quickly, often in under 40 minutes.

About Cooke Curtis & Co, Cambridge

40 High Street, Trumpington, Cambridge, CB2 9LS
Industry affiliations:

Cooke Curtis and Co. have been Cambridge's thinkingest estate agents since 2015.

We're warm, we're bright, we're experienced, we're calm and considered under pressure, we're masterful marketeers and we're entirely devoted to giving our clients the very best we can.

And our best is demonstrably pretty exceptional. Witness our glowing (genuine, not paid for - watch out for that) online reviews and the industry awards and plaudits we can't stop winning (including Best Single Office Estate Agency in the whole of Great Britain from The Best Estate Agent Guide 2022 - beat that).

The people of Cambridge who have embraced us and shared in our success have done so not because we're the cheapest or the most ruthless, but because we always work enormously hard to achieve the best results for all our clients and we do so without compromising our ethos of being fair, honest and kind. Don't get us wrong, we're here to sell and let as many properties as we can, that kind of drive is exactly what you need from an estate agent, but we manage to do it without forgetting to make our parents proud of our methods as well as our results.

If we sound like your kind of people, you're probably our kind of person too. Let's work together.
