Description
Cambridge City Centre 4 miles, M11 (Junction 11) 3 miles, Mainline Railway Station (Liverpool Street line) 500 yards, Stansted Airport 27 miles, London 50 miles (distances are approximate).
Browning House is situated at the end of a long, cherry tree-lined driveway in a wonderful private position.
Three, steeply pitched gables give a striking appearance to this magnificent period house, which is believed to originally date from the late 16th/early 17th centuries. Constructed with rough cast rendered elevations under tiled roofs, the property has been subject to a carefully considered programme of alterations and extensions over the years and the resulting accommodation is both substantial and immaculately presented. Particular care has been taken to retain the considerable charm and character of the house with the preservation of many of its attractive period features.
The versatile layout of the accommodation is particularly appealing for multi-generational living, with the main house featuring a ground floor bedroom with en suite shower room, ideal for a dependent relative, with an additional detached, one bedroom cottage.
