FOR SALE WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN. If you're looking for your first home, or perhaps something with a little more personality than your typical modern development, 42 High Street could be exactly what you've been searching for.

Positioned in the heart of the popular village of Harston, just south of Cambridge, this attractive two bedroom end of terrace home combines the charm and appearance of a traditional cottage with contemporary building standards (re-built in 2012), eco-efficient Grade B EPC and a surprisingly spacious and practical interior.

For first time buyers and professional couples, it ticks an impressive number of boxes. Two bedrooms, a spacious kitchen diner, a separate living room, two bathrooms, a downstairs WC, private garden and off road parking. All without sacrificing the character that makes a property feel like a home.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors, with a welcoming entrance porch leading into a particularly generous kitchen and dining room. This is a lovely sociable space with plenty of room for a dining table, making it just as suitable for entertaining friends as it is for everyday meals. The kitchen itself features attractive shaker style cabinetry, wooden worktops, a ceramic sink and integrated cooking appliances, with windows allowing plenty of natural light into the room.

The living room is another excellent space, enjoying a bright and airy feel thanks to its attractive bay style windows and glazed door opening directly onto the enclosed garden. There's ample room for a comfortable sofa arrangement, while the contemporary wood effect flooring provides a smart, easy to maintain finish. A particularly inviting room to relax in at the end of the working day.

A useful ground floor WC completes the downstairs accommodation.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a generously proportioned double with the added luxury of its own private en suite shower room. It's a particularly welcome feature for a property of this size and something that certainly sets it apart from many other two bedroom homes.

The second bedroom provides flexible accommodation, equally suited to a guest bedroom, child's room or dedicated home office for those working remotely. The characterful sloping ceiling adds a little individuality to the space, while a separate main bathroom, complete with a full sized bath, provides further convenience.

Outside, the property enjoys its own enclosed garden, screened by established evergreen hedging which provides a pleasing degree of privacy. A combination of lawn and paved seating areas offers just enough outdoor space to enjoy summer evenings, entertain friends or unwind with a coffee, without committing your weekends to endless gardening. A timber shed provides useful additional storage.

Off road parking to the rear is another significant advantage, particularly for a home positioned so centrally within the village.

And when it comes to convenience, it doesn't get much easier. Harston's village shop and Post Office are literally next door, meaning popping out for a pint of milk barely qualifies as a trip!

Location

Harston is a well established and characterful South Cambridgeshire village, approximately five miles south of Cambridge. It has long appealed to those wanting a more traditional village setting while remaining within easy reach of the city, particularly professionals working in Cambridge, Addenbrooke's Hospital and the Biomedical Campus.

Unlike some smaller villages, Harston has an excellent selection of everyday amenities. There is a village convenience store and Post Office, the Queen's Head pub, a local café, GP surgery, hairdressers, village hall, primary school and recreation ground. The village also enjoys an active local community, with regular clubs, activities and events throughout the year.

For those who enjoy getting outside, Harston is surrounded by attractive countryside, with local footpaths and walking routes leading towards neighbouring villages including Hauxton, Newton, Foxton and the Shelfords. The village recreation ground, community orchard and nearby countryside provide plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors.

The location is particularly convenient for commuters. The A10 provides straightforward access towards Cambridge and Royston, with the M11 also readily accessible. Trumpington Park & Ride and the Waitrose supermarket are just a short drive away, while Foxton railway station provides services towards Cambridge and London King's Cross.

Cambridge's main railway station and the newer Cambridge South station also provide excellent connections, particularly for those travelling into London or working around the Biomedical Campus.

Families are well catered for too, with Harston and Newton Primary School located within the village and Melbourn Village College serving the local secondary school catchment.

For first time buyers and professionals, 42 High Street offers an appealing combination. A home with a little character, genuinely usable living space, outdoor space and parking, all within a thriving village community and just a short distance from Cambridge.
