Description

Little Orchard is one of those properties that genuinely has it all — and it's been looked after to a really high standard throughout. Tucked away on a quiet lane in the idyllic village of Houghton, it's the kind of home that feels special from the moment you arrive.

Step inside and the entrance hall immediately gives a sense of the space on offer. The  recently refitted kitchen/dining room is a real highlight — well-fitted with high-end integrated appliances, and south-facing with double doors opening straight out onto the garden. It's a lovely space to cook, eat and spend time in.

The sitting room is equally impressive — a generous, light-filled room that also opens onto the garden, giving the whole ground floor a really easy, flowing feel. There's a dedicated study too, which works brilliantly as a home office or quiet retreat, and a fully refitted family bathroom.

The three bedrooms are all good-sized doubles, with the main bedroom benefitting from its own en-suite. Everything feels well considered and comfortable throughout.

The self-contained annexe is a real bonus — accessible from the main property but equally able to function completely independently if needed. Recently redecorated and carpeted, it has its own sitting/dining room, kitchen, bedroom and en-suite, as well as direct access to the rear garden. Whether it's for elderly relatives, grown-up children, or guests, it works brilliantly.

Beyond the annexe, the games room is a genuinely versatile space — built to full building specifications and currently equipped with Wi-Fi and an en-suite bathroom. It could easily become a home office, treatment room, studio, playroom or additional bedroom depending on what you need.

Outside, the south-facing rear garden is a real treat. Meticulously maintained with established shrub and flower borders, multiple seating areas and a covered storage area for bikes and garden tools, it approaches a fifth of an acre and enjoys a wonderfully private feel.

The location is second to none. Houghton is a beautiful Cambridgeshire village with a real sense of community — the iconic clock tower, village shop, café, art gallery, pavilion and playpark are all close by, alongside traditional pubs and easy access to the countryside. Houghton Mill, owned by the National Trust, is just a short walk away with beautiful trails along the River Great Ouse where you can hire a boat or punt. It really is a special place to live.
