Description

An Exceptional Private Residence Set Within Tranquil Surroundings.

Discreetly positioned on a generous plot at the end of a peaceful country track, this exceptional four/five-bedroom detached home offers an enviable blend of privacy, architectural interest and refined living, all within the charming town of Soham.

Located at the foot of Longmere Lane and surrounded by natural greenery, the property immediately impresses with its contemporary design and striking feature windows. The ground floor is centred around a beautifully proportioned open-plan kitchen, dining and relaxation space — ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is finished to a high standard, featuring under-unit lighting, a breakfast bar and a water softener. Adjoining this space is a practical utility room, a downstairs WC, and a temperature-controlled, glass garden room, seamlessly connecting the interior to the garden via double doors.

Opposite the kitchen lies a spacious living room, flooded with natural light from full height glazing and enhanced by a stone fire surround and a feature mezzanine balcony overlooks the room from above. Dual access points lead directly to the enclosed outdoor areas. The ground floor further benefits from an additional fourth bedroom, a well-appointed study/fifth bedroom, and a family shower room, offering excellent flexibility for modern family life.

The upper floor opens into a light and airy landing area with views over the living room below, complemented by extensive built-in storage. Two generous bedrooms occupy this level, including the impressive main bedroom, which enjoys access to a substantial private balcony overlooking the secluded garden. The second bedroom is currently arranged as an additional lounge and features a pull-out balcony within a large Velux window. Both rooms share a spacious, modern family bathroom, complete with a statement bath and a separate walk-in shower with remote-controlled settings.

Externally, the property is screened by mature trees, providing excellent privacy. A substantial driveway offers parking for multiple vehicles and leads to a double brick garage alongside a large workshop or second garage. The fully enclosed grounds are thoughtfully landscaped, featuring mature planting, a potting shed, summer house and expansive wrap-around patio.

Soham lies just a short drive from the historic cathedral city of Ely and offers a wide range of local amenities, alongside a recently reinstated railway on the Ipswich–Ely line, providing direct services to destinations such as Bury St Edmunds, Stowmarket, and several others. Upon arrival in Ely, you can transfer to a direct service to Cambridge, London, and other destinations.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive and generously proportioned family home in a highly private setting. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate the quality, space and lifestyle this exceptional property offers.
