Description
An exciting opportunity to acquire a charming three-bedroom detached cottage in the heart of the sought-after village of Exning, set along Oxford Street, now benefitting from approved planning permission for a substantial two-storey extension.
The approved plans will transform the property into a spacious and modern family home, to include a large kitchen/breakfast room, separate dining room, and utility area to the ground floor, along with a principal bedroom featuring an en suite. Once completed, the first floor will offer three bedrooms and two bathrooms, creating a well-balanced and highly desirable layout.
Full of character and potential, the existing property already provides generous accommodation, comprising a living and dining space, kitchen, bathroom, and a detached utility room. Upstairs, a bright landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms. The home is further enhanced by fantastic-size front and rear gardens, offering excellent outdoor space and scope for further improvement.
Ideally suited to families, the property is located close to highly regarded local schools and enjoys a peaceful village setting while remaining well connected.
Offered with no onward chain, the purchase process is expected to be smooth and straightforward.

Village Information
Being near Newmarket, the headquarters of horse racing in England, there are many equine connections including several Stud Farms and the National Equine Hospital.
A spring at Exning was named St Wendreda's Well, and a local legend had it that the seventh century Saint Wendreda used its water for healing. Newmarket jockeys used to take horses there to drink before a race. Local lore reputes Exning to have been the capital of the Iceni tribe and therefore home of Queen Boadicea (Boudicca) who defeated the Romans. She appears on the village sign.
The village has several beautiful countryside walks, including one which takes you onto Newmarket Racecourse (allowed from 13:30).
