Thornbury, Comberton

A high quality, detached family home, set in a small select development, on the edge of the village. The property provides over 2000 sqft (187 sqm) of bright well presented accommodation, with a private garden, double garage and off road parking.

Approached over a private road, the development is set around a lovely leafy wooded area with mature trees. The house is well planned and provides ample accommodation over two levels. There is an open porch to the front that gives protection from the elements as you go in and the entrance hall is wide and impressive, with plenty of space for welcoming guests into your home and storing coats and shoes. The staircase rises up to the first floor and there is a modern cloakroom with a w.c. and hand-basin off. The sitting room is a spacious dual aspect room with windows to the front and double doors to the rear that open to the garden and there is a beautiful stone fireplace that provides a focal point. The kitchen dining room overlooks the rear garden and side terrace and is a very light room with a large window and double doors out. There are matching floor and wall mounted cabinets set above and below the working surfaces, a built in double oven and hob with extractor over, and an integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer. The adjacent utility room has a door out to the garden, further storage cabinets, and space and plumbing for a washing machine. On the ground floor, there are two further reception rooms which are currently used as an office and a study, these could be used for a wide range of purposes such as a formal dining room, snug, playroom, or occasional bedroom.

On the first floor, is an open galleried landing leading to five double bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a bath with shower over and vanity cabinets with a concealed cistern w.c. and hand basin. The main bedroom is a very generous double with wardrobes extending across one wall and there is an en-suite shower room with a large shower enclosure and vanity cabinets with a concealed cistern w.c. and hand basin. The second bedroom is again very generously proportioned with extensive wardrobes to one wall and the third and fourth bedrooms both have a double wardrobe. The fifth bedroom is still a good size and could accommodate a double bed if required.

Outside the garden enjoys a good degree of privacy with a large terrace adjacent to french doors from the kitchen and sitting room and there is an area of lawn, attractive hard landscaping, and shrubs. The oil tank is neatly tucked in behind the garage and there are two parking spaces in front of the garage doors.

Vendors perspective: The property is in a quiet cul-de-sac location with a helpful community, just 2 minutes from a bridleway walk across open countryside and the cycle path into Cambridge can be joined at the end of the road. As a family, we moved to the village primarily because of the excellent schooling and we chose the house because of the space it offered and the private rear garden which is a lovely space for children to play and for entertaining. The village has all the essentials, with its amenities within walking distance.

Agents note: The property is on a private road with an annual service charge due on the 1st of April each year. In April 2024 this was £625
