Kym View Close, Kimbolton, PE28

Positioned at the edge of Kimbolton on an exceptional plot, 1 Kym View is a substantial modern home offering a seamless blend of refined interiors, generous proportions and breathtaking gardens leading directly into meadowland. Completed in 2022 by esteemed local builder Bewick Homes.

The house benefits from air source underfloor heating throughout, a full LABC warranty, and is offered to the market with no forward chain. Designed with family living and entertaining in mind, the house flows from bright open-plan spaces to private rooms and opens effortlessly onto expansive landscaped grounds with direct access to the River Kym beyond.

Ground Floor

A wide, central hallway with double doors and glazed side panels sets the tone, leading into a home that balances scale with considered design. On one side, a study overlooks the front garden, while on the other, the sitting room is centred around a modern fireplace and enjoys views out to the rear terrace through glazed double doors.

At the heart of the home lies a striking open-plan kitchen, living and dining space. The kitchen is fitted with a full suite of integrated Neff appliances, including double ovens, a grill, steamer, full-height fridge and freezer, induction hob, wine cooler and dishwasher. Quartz worktops and a central island with boiling water tap elevate the space, while pantry cupboards and deep storage are cleverly integrated. This space flows into an informal seating area and onwards into the orangery, where a glazed lantern ceiling and bi-folding doors frame panoramic views over the garden. The result is an exceptional space for entertaining and family life, filled with natural light and perfectly connected to the outdoors.

Off the kitchen is a well-appointed utility room, with matching finishes and additional storage, which leads through to a family room offering flexibility as a games room, snug or gym. There is also a cloakroom and built-in coat and shoe storage off the hallway, completing the ground floor arrangement.

First Floor

A galleried landing gives access to five bedrooms, all well-proportioned and finished to a high specification. The principal suite enjoys a peaceful position overlooking the garden and meadowland, with fitted wardrobes and a generous en suite with walk-in shower. The second bedroom also benefits from an en suite shower room and a walk-in wardrobe, making it ideal for guests or older children.

Two further double bedrooms offer excellent proportions, one with additional fitted wardrobes, while the fifth bedroom is currently configured as a dressing room with extensive built-in cabinetry. A beautifully appointed family bathroom serves these rooms, with a separate airing cupboard also accessed from the landing.

Gardens & Grounds

The south facing gardens at 1 Kym View are a standout feature, with an expanse of manicured lawn bordered by mature planting and screened with close-board fencing for privacy. The large terrace, laid in natural stone, wraps the rear of the house and offers multiple seating and dining areas — ideal for outdoor entertaining, alfresco dining or relaxing in the sun. A timber gate opens directly onto private meadowland, with mown paths leading down to the River Kym, creating an incredibly rare sense of space, seclusion and connection to nature in the heart of the village.

To the front, the property is set behind a neat hedge with paved path to the front door, landscaped planting and a large block-paved driveway with EV charging point. There is gated access on both sides of the house and a shed discreetly positioned to the rear for garden storage.
