Full Description: The Property<br />Tucked away on a quiet single-track lane in the charming village of Kedington, this Grade II listed thatched cottage offers a peaceful village lifestyle with excellent modern connectivity. Believed to date back to the 1640s, this characterful home pairs centuries of history with practical modern living.<br /><br />Inside, the property retains a wealth of period features, including exposed beams and working fireplaces. The ground floor layout comprises a welcoming living room, a separate dining room, a newly fitted kitchen, and a downstairs bathroom. Modern upgrades include an instant hot water system and Wi-Fi-connected heating throughout. Upstairs, three individual bedrooms reflect the charm and unique layout expected of a home from this era.<br /><br />The exterior features established gardens extending to the side and rear, long featured in the local annual open gardens. A highlight of the outdoor space is a large koi pond that attracts local wildlife, which also offers potential for conversion into a natural swimming pool. Parking is provided via a private driveway with space for two vehicles. Additionally, a detached former bakehouse now serves as a versatile studio and store—ideal for a home office, workshop, or hobby space (subject to necessary consents).<br /><br />Kedington provides a well serviced but traditional countryside setting, while Haverhill (3 miles) offers entertainment, leisure and your choice of supermarkets. Newmarket sits 12 miles away, and Cambridge is approximately 20 miles to the west. Rail connections to London are accessible via Audley End and Cambridge, with London Stansted Airport also within easy reach.<br /><br /><h3>Property Description Disclaimer</h3><p>This is a general description of the property only, and is not intended to constitute part of an offer or contract.
