Description

WellingtonWise ByDesign is proud to present Maplefield House to the market — a bespoke-designed, substantial four double bedroom detached residence in the sought-after village of Warboys. Boasting four impressive reception rooms, this exceptional home is perfectly suited to growing families looking for their next step on the property ladder. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac behind electric gates, Maplefield House offers an abundance of flowing living accommodation, ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining guests.

Built in 2007, Maplefield House occupies a secluded position at the end of Longlands Close, a small cul-de-sac conveniently located close to the centre of the village. The property is within walking distance of local schools, one of the area’s finest bakeries, and a range of shops and amenities. Set behind double electric gates and an attractive brick wall, the property enjoys excellent kerb appeal and offers an exceptional amount of space and versatility throughout. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a spacious entrance hall featuring a sweeping staircase and solid oak doors leading to the living and sitting rooms, as well as a generous downstairs WC.

The sitting room measures an impressive 19 feet in length and features a wood-burning stove along with westerly views over the mature garden. This room flows through to the family room, which enjoys a wonderful sense of space thanks to its vaulted ceilings and dual-aspect design. Currently used partly as a study, this versatile room could also serve as a ground floor fifth bedroom, offering a variety of possibilities to suit individual needs.

The living room is beautifully proportioned and feels particularly grand, benefiting from dual-aspect windows and an open fireplace that creates a warm and cosy atmosphere during the cooler months. From here, there is access to the stunning fitted kitchen/breakfast room, complete with a luxurious central island and breakfast bar, quartz and solid wood work surfaces, and space for a high-specification range-style cooker.

The kitchen seamlessly opens into the dining area and continues through to the truly bespoke garden room — undoubtedly one of the highlights of this remarkable home. Featuring exposed timber beams reminiscent of a 13th-century chapel, this space offers both character and charm in abundance. A well-proportioned utility room, housing the gas boiler and providing ample storage, completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor offers a spacious landing leading to all bedrooms. The principal bedroom is an impressive suite featuring a walk-in wardrobe/dressing area and a beautifully presented en-suite shower room with his-and-hers wash hand basins and an oversized shower enclosure. The remaining three bedrooms are all excellent-sized doubles, two of which benefit from fully fitted wardrobes. One bedroom also enjoys Jack-and-Jill access to the generous 15-foot four-piece family bathroom, making it an ideal guest suite.

Outside, the property occupies a mature plot of approximately a quarter of an acre, enjoying countryside views to the rear. The garden wraps around the property beyond the double garage and features a large timber storage outbuilding, multiple patio seating areas, and a variety of mature shrubs, trees, and flower borders. External lighting and electric sockets serve much of the garden, enhancing its practicality and appeal.

An additional standout feature is the brick-built double garage, which has been thoughtfully converted into a professional music studio. Designed as a “room within a room,” the conversion can be removed should a future owner prefer to reinstate the garage for traditional use. The original double up-and-over doors remain in place, and there is also side access from the garden.

To the front, the driveway provides off-road parking for up to four vehicles.

WARBOYS VILLAGE
Warboys is a popular and well-served village set within the attractive Cambridgeshire countryside, offering a balance of rural charm and everyday convenience. The village benefits from a strong sense of community together with a range of local amenities including shops, pubs, a primary school, medical facilities, and recreational spaces.

Ideally positioned for commuters, Warboys provides good access to nearby market towns such as Huntingdon, St Ives, and Ramsey, while larger centres including Cambridge and Peterborough are also within easy reach. Excellent road links via the A1(M) and A14, together with mainline rail services from Huntingdon to London King’s Cross, make the village particularly appealing to professionals and families alike.

Surrounded by open countryside and scenic walking routes, Warboys combines a peaceful village setting with practical connectivity, making it a highly desirable location for those seeking a relaxed lifestyle without sacrificing access to wider amenities and transport links.

Seller’s Story
“In 2007, in association with a local builder, we part designed and built this individual unique home specifically for our family and have subsequently loved every moment of our time here. We wanted a house that felt spacious, welcoming and practical for family life, with large rooms, high ceilings and plenty of natural light throughout.
One of the things we’ve always loved most is the feeling of privacy and space — from the gated entrance and peaceful private road setting to the open views across the fields and the completely brick walled enclosed garden area. We have been delighted and fortunate to watch the natural world in our very own back garden over the years, with visiting pheasants, muntjacs, squirrels and a wonderful variety of birds, including goldfinches and even a green woodpecker, becoming part of everyday life here. On most Thursday evenings, the campanologists practice their bell ringing, which is quite charming, especially if you are sitting outside in the summer sun with a refreshing drink.
The house has been wonderful for entertaining, family gatherings and simply enjoying everyday life together. One of our favourite traditions, on Christmas Eve, is to walk through the countryside to the neighbouring village by a footpath to our favourite pub, the Crown, before returning home to enjoy drinks and conversation in the garden room around the large Christmas tree. The garden room itself is a particularly special feature of the property, with its striking exposed timber roof structure creating a beautiful church-like character and atmosphere.
Over the years we have invested in high-quality finishes and features throughout the home to ensure it remained both comfortable and timeless. Another aspect to consider is the flexibility the property offers, including the opportunity for future owners to further extend the house if desired, subject to the necessary permissions.
Living in Warboys has also been a huge part of what has made this such a wonderful home. The village has a genuine community feel whilst still being incredibly practical for day-to-day life. There is an excellent local doctors’ surgery, a dentist, chiropractor, two barbers, bakery and tea room, Chinese takeaway, fish and chip shop, garage, library, pub, bowling green, three churches and a brand-new community centre. There are also two convenient village shops — one open every day (including Xmas day), with both offering long opening hours that has been incredibly useful.
Every month, we get a booklet delivered that lets us know what is happening in the community, detailing all the activities and events organised throughout the year for all ages. The village also gets a visit from a Grimsby fish supplier who sells extremely fresh produce; he parks up every Tuesday near the bakery / tea room; that latter establishment also happens to make the most delicious hot sausage rolls — something family and friends always remember when they visit.
The location has always suited us perfectly, offering peaceful country living while still being exceptionally well connected. Cambridge and Ely cities are both around a 40-minute drive away, making it easy to enjoy the amenities, shopping and culture of these historic places. Transport connections have also worked brilliantly for us over the years, with a bus service linking surrounding towns and villages, whilst Huntingdon railway station is less than 15 minutes away, providing excellent rail links both into London (around 1 hour) and northbound (to Edinburgh if you so wish). The road network is also excellent, with easy access to A14, A1 and M11.
The house has been the perfect family home for us, but now that our family has grown up and moved on, we simply feel the property is far too large for the two of us — and it’s time for another family to enjoy it as much as we have.”
