Available to purchase with the benefit of no onward chain is this four-bedroom family home located within easy reach of the many amenities nestled within the High Street.<br/><br/>This four-bedroom detached home, originally constructed in approximately 1999, and unusually for a modern home, it is particularly well-proportioned and offers high ceilings throughout providing that sense of space. The property was subsequently extended to provide a modern conservatory adjoining the kitchen/dining room. The property occupies a desirable and quiet position within this popular residential area of Cottenham and offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors, together with a generous driveway, carport, garage and a private, enclosed rear garden.<br/><br/>The property is approached via a spacious entrance hall, providing a welcoming first impression and access to the principal ground floor accommodation. A useful cloakroom/WC is situated off the hallway, whilst stairs rise to the first floor with useful storage beneath. The living room is a comfortable and well-proportioned reception space, featuring a large bay window to the front elevation which provides an attractive outlook and allows plenty of natural light into the room.<br/><br/>To the rear of the property is a generous kitchen/dining room, fitted with a replacement Shaker-style kitchen offering a range of wall and base level units together with ample work surface and storage provision. Opening directly from the kitchen/dining room is a modern conservatory, creating an additional reception space with a pleasant outlook over the rear garden. Bi-folding doors open directly onto the patio, providing a seamless connection between the house and garden and making the space particularly well suited to entertaining during the warmer months.<br/><br/>The first floor provides four bedrooms in total. The principal bedroom is a generous double bedroom and benefits from fitted wardrobes and a private en-suite shower room. A further double bedroom is complemented by two well-proportioned single bedrooms, providing flexibility for family living, children’s bedrooms, a home office or occasional guest accommodation. Completing the first floor is a family bathroom suite with panelled bath and shower above.<br/><br/>Externally, to the front the property benefits from a tandem driveway providing off-road parking beneath a useful carport. The driveway continues through to a generously proportioned, brick-built garage beneath a pitched roof, which benefits from storage space in the eaves and both power and lighting. <br/><br/>The rear garden is south-facing, enclosed and enjoys a high level of privacy. It is predominantly laid to lawn, with established herbaceous borders providing colour and interest to the side. A paved patio area immediately adjoining the conservatory and accessed via the bi-folding doors provides an excellent outdoor entertaining space, ideal for dining and relaxing during the warmer months.<br/><br/><b>Location</b> - Cottenham is a large and thriving village located approximately 6 miles north of Cambridge with many excellent facilities including a wide variety of local shops.
