Town Street, Newton

An established detached home, set in a generous plot of approaching a third of an acre. The property is bright and well planned, providing over 1500 sqft (145 sqm) of accommodation, with a private garden, double garage, and off road parking. No upward chain.

The property is exceptionally bright throughout, with large windows that flood the rooms with natural light, whilst the plot offers scope for expansion or the addition of outbuildings, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

40 Town Street is set back behind a front garden planted with mature trees and shrubs, with a path to the front door and a driveway to the garage providing parking. The entrance porch is ideal for storing coats and shoes as you go in, and there is a welcoming entrance hall with the staircase rising to the first floor and a large picture window over. The sitting room is a lovely, bright, nicely proportioned room with a window to the front and patio doors to the rear. A generous second reception/dining room overlooks the front garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets set above and below the working surfaces, and there is a built in double oven and hob with extractor over, space for a dishwasher, and room for a casual dining table and chairs. The adjacent utility room has a door to the garden, a second sink and drainer, and space for a washing machine and fridge freezer.

On the first floor, the landing is bright and spacious and opens to four double bedrooms and a family bathroom fitted with a bath, w.c., and handbasin. Bedroom one has an en-suite shower room with a shower enclosure, w.c., and hand basin, and bedroom three has fitted wardrobes.

Outside, the gardens enjoy a high degree of privacy, with mature trees, shrubs, and areas of lawn. An ambling mowed walkway leads to a greenhouse at the far end, and a personal door gives access to the garage.

Newton is a lovely, smaller village about 3.5 miles south of Cambridge. The village is popular with those looking for a location that is close to the City and major road links (M11, J11, 3 miles), but far enough out to be more peaceful and unspoilt by recent development.

There are mainline railway stations at Whittlesford (4 miles, London Liverpool St c. 75 mins) and Royston (9 miles, London Kings Cross c. 50 minutes).

Within the village, there is an excellent family-owned and run local pub, a lovely cafe/bakery/delicatessen, a recreation ground, a cricket ground with an active local club, a Sports and Social club, and various local clubs and societies. Harston and Newton Primary School (OFSTED 'Good') is in neighbouring Harston, about a mile away.
