Description

Built circa 1850 and formerly a monastery, Olive house is an exceptional conversion into the incredible home we see today. The current vendors have meticulously shaped and improved the property within their ownership and are very proud of what they have achieved. On entry from the High Street you are met with a warm and generous entrance hall with built in furniture and a classic characterful style which gives you an idea of what is to come. The Inner Hall has stairs to the first floor fitted with luxurious wool carpets and a reclaimed parquet flooring which stretches the length of the ground floor. There is a useful downstairs shower room and generous utility room all fitted with high specification fixtures and fittings. On entering the open plan living space you are met with a wonderful contemporary/modern space which compliments the characterful nature of the property. The kitchen offers a high specification and has marble work surfaces, fully integrated Bosch appliances and breakfast bar offering additional dining options. The living/dining area is set off beautifully by the floor to ceiling sliding doors and picture window giving views over the garden. The glazed flame effect fireplace is an excellent focal point and the solar Velux windows let light flood into the room from the partially vaulted ceilings.

The first floor is accessed via a staircase which has full height mirrors to the west wall, cleverly creating a spacious feel and making the landing a light and spacious area. The hallway leads to the two double bedrooms, the beautifully finished family bathroom underfloor heating and on to the star of the show, The master bedroom !!! This is 28' in length and was formerly the chapel. This wonderful space has partially vaulted ceilings and double glazed timber bespoke sash windows and gives access to the en-suite shower room with Crosswater furniture and fittings and is enhanced by underfloor heating.

VENDOR INSIGHT
"Hemingford Grey is a lovely place to live with footpaths all around and scenic river walks to enjoy. Being located centrally in Hemingford Grey gives us access to all the great surrounding areas and amenities, including a coffee shop, post office, shop, hairdressers, sports pavilion and the award-winning pub, The Cock. Living here gives us a peaceful retreat, but it's only a 30-minute walk into St. Ives or a 35-minute bus journey into central Cambridge. We are close to road and rail networks, which is convenient for traveling into London, up North, or on a cross-country drive to Birmingham.

I often enjoy morning walks along the river, and everything you need is close by. One of the highlights is the beautiful landscape that offers a serene environment while still being connected to larger cities."
