Green Man Lane, Harston

Tucked away in a peaceful position just off Harston's historic High Street, in Green Man Lane is a deceptively spacious detached bungalow extending to over 1,100 sq ft, offering versatile accommodation, generous living space and a mature, private garden. The property occupies an established plot within this highly regarded South Cambridgeshire village, combining a quiet setting with excellent access to Cambridge, Addenbrooke's and the M11. Available with no chain.

Stepping inside, the spacious entrance hall with beautiful Marble flooring and underfloor heating provides access to all principal rooms and immediately gives a sense of the property's generous proportions. Access to the loft, which is half boarded and reinsulated in 2022.

The heart of the home is the impressive sitting and dining room, a wonderfully bright dual-aspect space extending to almost 24 feet in length. Large windows and glazed doors frame views of the garden while flooding the room with natural light, and a contemporary new wood-burning stove creates an attractive focal point. An impressive vaulted ceiling measuring approximately 12ft / 3.65 m high provides volume. There is ample space for both relaxed seating and formal dining, making it an ideal room for everyday living as well as entertaining.

Open to the adjoining kitchen is in need of refitting a range of units complemented by work surfaces and a sink unit. Integrated and spaces for additional freestanding appliances. There is plenty of space and direct access to the garden, making it a practical and sociable space for family life.

Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, located to the front of the home, with an en-suite with a three-piece suite. The second bedroom is also a double and benefits from its own external door providing direct access to the rear garden.

A beautifully refitted family bathroom completes the accommodation with a wash hand basin with vanity unit, wall-hung WC, and walk-in shower, with drench and handheld shower attachments. Underfloor heating.

Outside, the rear garden enjoys a high degree of privacy, enclosed by mature trees including two apple trees, plants and shrubs, timber fencing and gated access. A patio area provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the remainder of the garden offers excellent potential for further landscaping or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. A gravel driveway to the front of the home provides off-street parking, and a walnut tree and borders, gated access to the side.

Offering spacious single-storey living, flexible accommodation and a tucked-away village setting, this is a home that will appeal to a wide range of buyers seeking both tranquillity and convenience, within easy reach of Cambridge and the surrounding transport links.

Agent's Note: The current owners have undertaken a number of high-quality improvements, significantly enhancing both the property and its layout. Externally, works completed during 2022/23 include new gutters, soffits and fascias, together with a new door to bedroom two and a replacement bathroom window. Internally, the ceilings have been professionally re-plastered, cast iron radiators have been installed to the hallway and bedrooms, and attractive wood flooring has been fitted throughout the bedrooms.

Some internal finishing works do, however, remain, including sections of flooring, skirting boards, elements of plastering and the completion of the kitchen. This provides an excellent opportunity for the next owner to complete the property to their own specification while benefiting from the substantial investment already made.

Harston is the first village coming south out of Cambridge on the A10 and has an excellent range of day-to-day facilities, plus exceptionally easy road links both into the city and south towards Royston and London.

A new purpose-built, road traffic-free cycle route has recently opened that leads over the M11, into Trumpington, and on to the city. There is also a regular bus service, which is a most useful asset.

The village is the right side of town for the Addenbrooke's Campus, the science parks at Melbourn, Abington, and Great Chesterford, and Foxton's mainline railway station to Cambridge (approximately 13 minutes) and London Kings Cross (less than 1 hour) is within 2 miles.

Within the parish, there is an Ofsted 'Good' rated primary school, a restaurant, doctor's surgery with dispensary, an excellent local shop with a Post Office counter, village hall, hairdresser, petrol filling station, and a large recreation ground with a recently improved children's playground.
