The ground floor comprises a welcoming entrance hall laid with engineered wood flooring, with stairs rising to the first floor, a built-in coats cupboard and a cloakroom WC.

The kitchen/dining room is fitted with a comprehensive range of units complemented by solid wood worktops, a breakfast bar, Rangemaster cooker with extractor hood and tiled splashbacks, and ample space for a six-seater dining table. A separate utility room provides additional worktop space with an inset ceramic sink, further storage cupboards and space for two white goods.

To the rear of the property is a spacious garden room extension, filled with natural light from three Velux roof windows and featuring French doors, together with an additional glazed door opening onto the rear garden, and a further door providing access to the front driveway and bin storage area. Offering ample space for a dining table or seating area, this versatile room provides an excellent extension of the living accommodation. Double doors lead through to the rear-facing sitting room, which also benefits from French doors opening onto the garden, LVT flooring, and access to a useful storage room created from part of the double garage.

The first floor offers a generous rear-facing room, complete with a feature gas fireplace, which could equally serve as a second living room, or guest double bedroom. Also on this floor is the principal bedroom, featuring a bay window, double built-in wardrobe and a modern ensuite shower room. A useful storage room completes the accommodation on this level.

The second floor comprises three further double bedrooms, including a guest bedroom with its own ensuite shower room, together with a family bathroom fitted with a shower over the bath. The landing incorporates an airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder and provides access to the loft.

OUTSIDE AND PARKING

The south-east facing rear garden is generously proportioned and laid mainly to lawn, with established shrubs and bushes bordering the garden and a paved patio providing an ideal seating and entertaining area. A row of mature trees beyond the rear boundary provides an excellent degree of privacy.

To the front of the property, a double-width driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the partially converted double garage. The front garden is attractively finished with slate chippings and enclosed by established planting to one side. To the right of the property is a further strip of land, providing a third possible parking space.

LOCATION

Cottenham is one of the largest and best-served villages in South Cambridgeshire, situated approximately six miles north of Cambridge. The village enjoys excellent connectivity, with convenient access to the A14 and regular bus services linking Cottenham with Cambridge, Ely and surrounding villages. Cyclists are particularly well catered for, benefiting from largely flat, well-used routes into Cambridge via Histon and established cycle paths.

Cottenham has a thriving and welcoming community, supported by a comprehensive range of local amenities. These include independent shops, cafés, pubs and takeaways, alongside churches, a community centre, library, medical practice, dentist and pharmacy. Leisure facilities are a particular strength, with a sports centre, skate park, recreation grounds and a wide variety of clubs and societies. A full calendar of community events throughout the year contributes to the village’s lively and inclusive atmosphere.

Education provision is a key attraction for families. Cottenham Primary School is well regarded, while Cottenham Village College provides local secondary education and sixth form, and is known for its positive learning environment, strong academic performance and wide-ranging extracurricular opportunities. Additional Post-16 education is served by the nearby Impington Village College Sixth Form, which offers a broad choice of A-level and vocational courses and is easily accessible by bus and cycle routes. These excellent transport links make Cottenham a practical and popular choice for students, families and commuters alike.
