Set within a modern residential development on the edge of Willingham, this well-kept two-bedroom semi-detached house offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home with a practical layout and enclosed garden. The property is likely to suit a first-time buyer or those seeking a manageable home with outside space and parking, within easy reach of Cambridge. <br/> <br/>The ground floor is arranged with a separate contemporary kitchen/breakfast room to the front, offering good worktop space, a large window and room for informal dining. To the rear, the sitting/dining room provides a more generous living area, with a layout that accommodates both seating and a table without compromise. Natural light is drawn in through the rear aspect, with direct access out to the garden, making it a sociable and usable space day-to-day. A cloakroom is positioned off the entrance hall. <br/> <br/>Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom spans the width of the house and offers ample space for storage alongside a double bed. The second bedroom is a comfortable single or small double, suitable as a guest room, child’s room or home office. A family bathroom serves both rooms, and there is additional storage off the landing. <br/> <br/>Outside, the rear garden is enclosed and mainly laid to lawn, with a paved terrace providing space for outdoor seating. The proportions are manageable and suited to everyday use rather than upkeep. To the side/rear, there is allocated parking on a brick-paved driveway. <br/> <br/>Willingham is a popular and well-served village located approximately 9 miles north-west of Cambridge, or around 6–7 miles by bicycle via the scenic Guided Busway cycle route, providing a pleasant and convenient alternative route into the city. <br/> <br/>The village offers an excellent range of local amenities for everyday living, including a Co-op supermarket, post office, bakery, butcher, farm shop, and a small business park hosting a variety of local trades and services. Fitness facilities are also well catered for with Neil Marsh Gym and Willingham Gym. Additional village amenities include a doctor’s surgery, three public houses, restaurants, cafés, and a selection of takeaway options. <br/> <br/>Further shopping and leisure facilities are available in Bar Hill (approximately 4 miles away), which offers a large Tesco supermarket, coffee shops, and other services. <br/> <br/>For commuters, the Guided Busway provides quick and convenient access into the north of Cambridge, Railway Station, Science and Business Parks, without the need to contend with road traffic, as well as direct links to St Ives in the opposite direction. The A14 is only a few miles away, offering excellent connections to the M11, providing straightforward access to Addenbrookes Hospital and the surrounding campus, Stansted Airport, London to the south, and the A1 to the north. <br/> <br/>Willingham is also well served for education, with a village nursery and primary school, while secondary schooling is available at the nearby and well-regarded Cottenham Village College, Swavesey Village College, and Northstowe Secondary College.
