Property Insight
A brand-new detached home on a private road opposite the recreation ground, this is a house with more of a high-end self-build feel than the average new build. The buff-brick frontage sits beneath a slate roof, with an oak canopy over the front door, a lawned front garden and side access through to the rear. Finished to a high specification throughout and carrying a 10-year building warranty, it suits anyone after a low-maintenance, energy-efficient home ready to move straight into, with nothing left to do.

Inside, the entrance lobby sets the standard with luxury Amtico flooring, stairs rising to the first floor and a ground-floor WC off to one side. The lounge runs to the front, a comfortable and well-proportioned room with a large window and neutral decor, with space for a range of seating and storage. Across the rear, the kitchen/diner is the heart of the home, opening through windows and doors to the garden. It is fitted with modern shaker units, quartz-style worktops and a breakfast bar, with an integrated oven and hob, dishwasher and washer/dryer, an instant boiling hot water tap and room for a dining table.

Upstairs, the first floor holds three bedrooms laid with quality carpets, two comfortable doubles and a third single ideal as a child's room or home office. The family bathroom is generously sized and fitted with designer sanitaryware from Ideal Standard and Geberit, comprising a bath, WC and hand wash basin. Outside, the rear garden is a good size and fully enclosed by fencing, with a paved patio for seating and al fresco dining, gated side access back to the front, and a detached garage. A rare chance to secure a high-specification new home in one of the village's most settled positions.

Location – Bassingbourn
Bassingbourn is a pretty parish village in South Cambridgeshire, a couple of miles north of Royston and 14 miles from Cambridge. The village has a network of 24 public rights of way extending over 13 miles, plus a further mile of permissive paths, giving ample opportunity for circular walks and linking the parish with Whaddon, Melbourn, Litlington and Abington Pigotts. Facilities include a doctor's surgery, a dental surgery, a garage, sub-Post Office, coffee shop, chemist, hairdressers and general grocers, alongside two pubs: The Hoops, in a 17th-century building in the village, and The Belle at North End. Bassingbourn Village College, Community Primary School and Pre-school sit on the edge of the village, providing education from the age of two and a half to school leaving age. The Church of St Peter and St Paul is older than the Church of England itself. Royston's mainline station offers fast services to Cambridge and London Kings Cross, with Meldreth a further option, and the A1M and M11 are within a 20-minute drive.
