Rampton Drift, Longstanton, CB24

The property occupies an end-of-terrace position and benefits from the rare advantage of owning an additional strip of land running alongside the house. Currently laid to lawn, this land offers potential for a side extension, subject to the necessary planning consents.

The accommodation is bright and well proportioned, with attractive bamboo flooring throughout the ground floor. The entrance hall provides access to a generous storage cupboard, further under-stairs storage and a ground-floor cloakroom.

The open-plan kitchen/dining room is fitted with a modern range of units, complemented by a built-in oven and hob, a 1½ bowl stainless-steel sink and a large pantry cupboard. The dining area comfortably accommodates a six-seater table and features a half-glazed door opening onto the rear garden. Alongside is the rear-facing sitting room, conveniently accessed from both the entrance hall and kitchen/dining room.

The first floor comprises three bedrooms, including two generous doubles, both benefiting from built-in wardrobes, together with a comfortable single bedroom. There are two additional storage cupboards on the landing, one housing the Worcester combi boiler. The accommodation is completed by a bathroom fitted with a bath with shower over and wall-hung wash basin, together with a separate WC.

Outside and Parking

The enclosed rear garden is bordered by brick walling to the rear and left-hand side and is thoughtfully divided by a central pathway. One side is predominantly laid to lawn with established planting around the borders, while the other is arranged as a vegetable garden with raised beds. A useful brick-built store is positioned at the rear, with a second brick storage cupboard located to the front of the property. Parking is provided by an allocated space to the rear, with additional on-street parking available to the front.

LOCATION

Longstanton is a well-connected and fast-growing village located directly on the Guided Busway, providing exceptional access to Cambridge and St Ives. Its position near the A14 offers additional convenience for road commuters. The Busway cycle path — a fully segregated, traffic-free route — is extremely popular with cyclists, connecting Longstanton safely to Cambridge, St Ives and the new town of Northstowe.

The village has expanded significantly in recent years, offering a blend of traditional homes and modern developments. Amenities include a Co-op, cafés, takeaway, medical centre, pharmacy, hairdressers, golf course, sports fields, village hall and church. Nearby Northstowe enhances local facilities further with new retail, community spaces, sports pitches and upcoming leisure developments.

Hatton Park Primary School serves Longstanton and is well regarded (Ofsted Good). Secondary education is provided by Northstowe Secondary College (Ofsted Good) or Swavesey Village College (Ofsted Outstanding). The Guided Busway’s cycle path makes school travel particularly safe and convenient for older students.
