Church Street, Gamlingay SG19 3JH

Delivering character and expansive living, this substantial detached family home, built in approximately 1870, is nestled in the heart of Gamlingay village. Beautifully restored and extended over three floors, it offers four versatile reception rooms, five double bedrooms, and four bathrooms. The property retains much of its period charm, with original features such as sash windows, stripped doors, and a mix of wooden and tiled floors throughout, all set on a generous quarter-acre plot.

Step through the wooden entrance door into a spacious reception hallway, featuring inlaid tile flooring and a graceful staircase leading to the first floor. From here, wooden doors open to the various ground floor living spaces, including a dedicated study with quarry tiled flooring and a sash window, offering a quiet retreat.

The impressive dining room, with its twin sash windows overlooking the front aspect and elegant Oak flooring, is perfect for formal entertaining. An inner hallway provides convenient access to the kitchen, a charming snug/playroom, and a full-height cellar, currently configured as a generously sized games room or home office, complete with comprehensive storage, recessed lighting, and heating.

The kitchen combines period charm with modern functionality, featuring a range of base and eye-level units, ample worksurface space, and integrated appliances. A feature stove and inlaid brick flooring add to its unique character, with a part-glazed door offering direct access to the rear garden.

A rear hallway provides further access to the garden and leads to a practical utility room and a ground floor shower room, ideal for busy family life. The family room is a bright and airy space with full-height glazing and French doors opening to the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

The first floor galleried landing, bathed in light from twin sash windows, leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom is a comfortable sanctuary with twin sash windows, stripped wooden flooring, and a private en-suite shower room. A spacious family bathroom on this floor, complete with a four-piece suite, offers a peaceful haven.

Ascending to the second floor, you'll find a landing with built-in display shelving, leading to two further double bedrooms, each benefitting from windows and eaves storage, providing flexible accommodation options.

Externally, the property sits on a substantial quarter-acre plot, featuring a predominantly lawned, part-walled rear garden with mature flower and shrub borders. A patio area immediately to the rear of the property is ideal for outdoor dining, with a pathway leading up the garden to a large decked area and a impressive timber workshop. A vegetable garden and brick-built greenhouse further enhance the outdoor space. Off-road parking is accessed via Bell Foundry Close, with a gravel driveway leading to a detached timber double garage.
