The brick elevations sit under a tiled roof, with a covered parking area to the side and a smart composite front door opening straight into the heart of the home. For a property of this size, the balance of living space, storage and garden is unusually well judged.</p><p>Inside, the ground floor is given over to a bright, open living arrangement. The lounge runs the depth of the home, with wood-effect flooring, a window to the front and the staircase rising from one corner, leaving plenty of room for seating around a central table. It opens through to the kitchen, which has been fitted with cream gloss units, timber-effect worktops and a tiled surround, with an integrated electric oven and hob beneath a stainless chimney extractor, and space for a washing machine. A glazed door from the kitchen leads directly out to the garden, drawing in light and making everyday cooking and outdoor living work well together.</p><p>Upstairs, the generous double bedroom is a real strength, carrying a run of fitted sliding wardrobes with mirrored and oak-fronted doors, a window to the rear with a pleasant leafy outlook, and ample space for further freestanding furniture. The shower room is fully tiled and well presented, with a glazed shower enclosure, a vanity wash basin and a WC. Outside, the rear garden is a genuine highlight for a home of this type — fully enclosed by timber fencing, laid to lawn with a paved patio off the house, a pathway leading to a timber shed, and gravelled borders. A rare chance to secure a home with parking and a private garden at this level.</p><p><strong>At a Glance</strong><br/><strong>Type:</strong> End-of-terrace house, freehold<br/><strong>Size:</strong> 448 sq ft<br/><strong>Bedrooms:</strong> 1 double<br/><strong>Bathrooms:</strong> 1 — first-floor shower room<br/><strong>Reception Rooms:</strong> Lounge open to the kitchen, with wood-effect flooring<br/><strong>Kitchen:</strong> Cream gloss units, timber-effect worktops, integrated oven and hob, space for a washing machine<br/><strong>Outside:</strong> Enclosed rear garden, paved patio, timber shed<br/><strong>Parking:</strong> Off-road parking to the side<br/><strong>Station:</strong> Newmarket, direct services to Cambridge and London</p><p><strong>Walk Through This Home — Virtually</strong><br/>Take a 360° tour from your phone or laptop.

It is steeped in history, with two conservation areas, the earthwork remains of Burwell Castle — a scheduled monument — and nearly 60 listed buildings. The Grade I listed parish church of St Mary the Virgin dates back earlier than the 15th Century and has an active membership with events throughout the year, alongside a Baptist church and a Trinity church. An annual carnival in June raises money for charity, with a parade travelling to the recreation ground for stalls and fairground rides. The village has two village halls and three public houses — The Fox, which often hosts street food vans, The Five Bells and The Anchor, now serving Thai food — plus allotments, a café, a fish and chip shop, a doctor's surgery, a nursery, a Montessori and a primary school. Wicken Fen Nature Reserve is within striking distance.</p>
