Huntingdon Road, Chatteris, PE16

Hockeys are delighted to bring to market this 2/3 bedroom character property, conveniently located on Huntingdon Road, Chatteris. The property offers a versatile layout, a deceptively spacious rear garden, off-road parking, and plenty of potential to improve and adapt to suit a variety of lifestyles.

Set back from the road and accessed via a private gate, the property opens into an inviting entrance hall, providing access to the kitchen, dining room, and a convenient downstairs WC.

The kitchen is fitted with a matching range of wall and base units with worktop space over, a 1½ bowl sink, plumbing for a washing machine, and space for both a fridge and freezer, along with electric and gas points for a cooker . Dual-aspect windows overlooking the garden provide a bright and airy feel to the space.

Leading from the kitchen is the designated dining area—a charming space ideal for dining and entertaining—featuring wooden panelling and exposed beams that enhance the character of the home.

A store/versatile utility space is located just off the dining room. This area is also accessible via an external door and is large enough to accommodate a bike or motorcycle.

The family room is situated at the heart of the home; a versatile space that can be adapted to suit a variety of uses. The bathroom is located just off the family room and comprises a three-piece suite, along with a newly fitted heat exchange extractor fan.

The lounge, accessible via the family room or an external door, offers a cosy and inviting space for relaxing and entertaining.

To the front of the property is a third versatile room, formerly used as a home office, now used as a music room, though it has previously served as a bedroom and cinema room. This room also benefits from access to a semi-boarded loft, ideal for storage.

Upstairs, the property comprises two well-sized double bedrooms and an airing cupboard on the landing. Two further loft spaces are accessible through the bedrooms, with one side being boarded.

Outside, the property offers a deceptively spacious rear garden, with ample parking on the gravel driveway. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn, with a range of trees and shrubs creating a beautiful, green, and private space. Planning permission was previously granted (now lapsed) for the erection of a single-storey, double-size garage with additional storage at the rear of the property . Drawings have also been prepared for a separate dwelling at the end of the plot (STPP).
