Recently constructed family residence with far reaching countryside views

Description

Meadow View was built in 2022 by the current owners and has been finished to the highest of standards. Located on the peaceful South Road on the outskirts of the village giving you great access to both Granta Park and Babraham Research Campus.

The ground floor is arranged around a striking open-plan kitchen and dining room, designed as the true heart of the house. Here, bi-folding doors open directly onto the garden, filling the space with natural light and creating an easy connection between indoors and out. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of shaker-style units with integrated appliances including an induction hob with extractor, electric Aga, double oven and dishwasher. A central island adds both preparation space and a breakfast bar, making this a highly practical and sociable setting. Adjoining the kitchen, a utility room and cloakroom/WC provide useful additional space. The sitting room is generously proportioned and enjoys a dual aspect, creating a bright yet refined reception room an ideal place for both entertaining and everyday family life.

On the first floor, a wide and welcoming landing leads to three double bedrooms. The principal suite is a spacious retreat with views across the garden and countryside, served by an en suite shower room. The second bedroom also benefits from its own en suite, while the third bedroom is complemented by eaves storage and a cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. A family bathroom completes the accommodation, beautifully appointed with a freestanding roll-top bath.

The property also benefits from underfloor heating throughout and can be seen in greater detail on the attached floorplans.

The property is set well back from the lane, approached through secure gates and mature hedging. A gravel driveway provides ample parking and access to a detached double garage with electric doors. The garden extends to about 0.4 acres and is mainly laid to lawn, with a terrace ideal for outdoor dining and a detached log cabin with double glazing twist and tilt windows, which could lend itself to a home office or a gym.
