A substantial four-bedroom detached home in an established Haslingfield setting, offering around 1,375 sq ft of accommodation together with a particularly generous and mature rear garden and a large double garage. The house has been a long-term home and now presents its next owner with the opportunity to modernise it to their own requirements, offering plenty of space to work with. <br/> <br/>The ground floor is arranged around a central hallway, with a sitting room to the front and a second reception room extending to almost 20 ft at the rear. This latter room has broad sliding doors onto the garden, creating a useful connection between the principal living accommodation and outside space. Alongside is a generous kitchen/breakfast room with extensive worktop and cupboard space and room for informal seating. Subject to the necessary investigations and consents, there is clear potential to reconsider this part of the house, opening the kitchen and rear reception room into one generous kitchen, dining and family space. A ground-floor WC completes the arrangement and adds everyday practicality. <br/> <br/>Upstairs, four bedrooms give the house useful flexibility for family life and for home working. The two largest bedrooms are particularly good-sized rooms, with the principal bedroom benefitting from a built in wardrobe, an en-suite shower room and its own private balcony overlooking the rear garden. Bedrooms three and four provide credible children's rooms, guest accommodation or dedicated workspace. There is a separate family bathroom with a bath with shower over, WC and basin. <br/> <br/>Outside, the rear garden is a meaningful part of the proposition. It has good depth and a broad central lawn, framed by established planting that gives the space a mature, pleasantly enclosed character. There are several areas around the house that can be used for sitting, gardening or storage. The large double garage is another considerable asset, particularly for buyers needing secure parking, workshop space or substantial storage. <br/> <br/>The Hemlocks sits within the established village of Haslingfield, a charming and highly sought-after South Cambridgeshire village, situated approximately four miles south-west of Cambridge. Offering the perfect balance of rural village life and city convenience, it enjoys easy access to Cambridge, the A10 and M11, while a network of bridleways and permissive paths provides excellent walking and cycling routes to Grantchester, Trumpington and Harston. <br/> <br/>The village has a thriving community and offers an excellent range of amenities, including a post office and general store, independent café, Indian restaurant, village hall, an active parish church, recreation ground, playground, skate park and a variety of sporting clubs, societies and community groups. Secondary education is provided by the highly regarded Comberton Village College, which is Ofsted rated Outstanding, as well as a pre-school and an Ofsted rated Good primary school, further enhancing the village's appeal for families. <br/> <br/>Cambridge city centre, Addenbrooke's Hospital and the Biomedical Campus are all within easy reach, while nearby Foxton railway station provides direct services to London King's Cross.
