MAIN HOUSE PLUS DETACHED BUNGALOW (ANNEX)
The main house comprises a generous sitting room which offers a comfortable space to relax and enjoy a centrally designed log burner, providing an attractive focal point which also leads nicely into the snug area of the open plan kitchen/dining/living room. The impressive modern kitchen has an attractive, light grey finish with quartz worktops and integrated appliances. Dual aspect windows let in lots of light, plus bi-folding doors which lead to the courtyard and garden. In addition to this is a well-designed utility room, which includes a range of further wall and base units with space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, a wall-mounted gas boiler and a ground-floor WC. The ground floor has underfloor heating throughout.
Features include an oak staircase which leads to the spacious first floor accommodation, comprising four double bedrooms with an en suite shower room to bedrooms one and two, plus a family bathroom, all fitted with quality modern suites.
A detached two-bedroom bungalow comprises an impressive open plan kitchen/dining room which is fitted to a high standard with an attractive modern kitchen and includes a vaulted ceiling. This is adjacent to the vast lounge, which again features a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and French doors which lead to the private garden. The inner hall features a double built-in cupboard and a walk-in wardrobe that can equally be used as a home office, if required. There are two generous double bedrooms, both with vaulted ceilings, and a family bathroom, complete with a four-piece suite. There is also the potential of a first-floor room, with the installation of a staircase, the room is already used as storage and has been insulated, plastered and painted, with a radiator and electric points.
OUTSIDE AREAS AND PARKING
This attractive period property is located within a central position, walking distance to the many amenities offered within this sought-after village. The property was extended and renovated by the current vendors to a high standard in recent years, which included the conversion of a barn into a detached two-bedroom bungalow, complete with its own private garden. There is a double-gated access with cedar gates that lead to the rear garden, currently laid out to gravel for low maintenance, but this could easily be changed to grass to create a more traditional garden feel. There is a detached four-car garage with cedar doors, power connected, and the potential to be converted partly/fully into a home office/studio, or gym.
LOCATION
The popular village of Over lies approximately 10 miles (16 kilometres) northwest of the university city of Cambridge, providing easy access to A14 and M11. The nearest stop for the Guided Busway is just a mile away in neighbouring Swavesey; this is a direct route west to the market town of St Ives and south to the city of Cambridge, stopping at the Science Park, train station and Addenbrooke’s Hospital. Parallel to the Busway is a cycle path which is also popular for runners and walkers. The community centre, located next to a sports field and children's play area holds many events such as weddings, parties and sports matches. The recently upgraded village green is the perfect place to watch a cricket match, walk the dog or play football. There are two preschools, a successful primary school and Over is within the catchment for Swavesey Village College, which was rated as outstanding by Ofsted following their most recent inspection. Along the High Street is a convenience store, village garage, a pub, hairdressers and a café serving tea, coffee and cakes. A butcher, bakery, farm shop and Co-operative are located in the neighbouring village of Willingham, as well as an antique and new furniture sale hall with tea rooms and an outside eatery. Wonderful walks can be enjoyed in the surrounding countryside including orchards which are open to the public, the picturesque fen or along Chain Road to the River Ouse. A short walk reaches the RSPB Ouse Fen Nature Reserve for bird watching just north of the village with parking and access to the river.
