Wimpole Road, Barton SAT NAV CB23 7AB

Property Description

Walking down the shared gravel driveway you will notice how the timber framed, thatch cottage is well screened from view by the plants and shrubs of the front garden. 

Once inside you are treated to the cosy interior with low ceilings, and latch doors. Step into the SITTING ROOM with useful understairs storage cupboard, original exposed timbers, and brick fire palce with inset wood burning stove

There is a small galley KITCHEN comprising a range of  both base and eye level oak storage cupboards with plinth floor heater, roll top work surfaces, a fitted electric oven and hob with extractor hood above, and a newly installed  sink and drainer unit. The window overlooks the cottage garden on the front.  There is plumbing for a washing machine, dishwasher, and space for an upright fridge freezer, all of which are included in the sale.

Also downstairs is the BATHROOM and airing cupboard with wood panelling surround and heated towel rail and extractor fan. There is a dwarf bath with a shower attachment over, and a low-level flush WC. 

Leading to the first floor is a feature narrow staircase that showcases original ceiling beams. At the top is a DRESSING AREA which has been previously used as a SECOND BEDROOM. This room leads to the MAIN BEDROOM, which has a raised bed area and a window to the side. There is also access to the loft, providing additional storage.  Both of the rooms have original floor boards and sloping ceilings.

It is worthwhile noting that due to the age of the property anyone over 6 ft would find the ceiling height challenging, which is typical of this age property and adds to the charm of the house. 

OUTSIDE

The front garden is delightful and has been planted with a variety of shrubs and plants to ensure colour throughout the year and provides adequate screening from the neighbouring property.  There is off road parking to the front with additional storage shed and three custom built log stores.

 VIEWING ARRANGEMENTS:

By appointment only.  Call or text Gavin Human during or after office hours.

REMOTE VIEWING TOUR:

Traditional property viewings are still vital when it comes to finding the right house. However, making these arrangements can be tricky and complicated, juggling work and home life commitments, or simply finding enough time if moving into a new area and traveling some distance.

Booking a Remote Viewing Tour puts YOU firmly in control. Arrange a day and time that is convenient for you to “look around” and I will be at the property at the appointed time to walk you around the house using WhatsApp or Facetime. The Viewing Tour can be as quick or as long as you like, making sure you have a good look round, focussing on the rooms that are important to you. This will hopefully help you decide to arrange an in person viewing at a later date.

HAVE YOU GOT A HOUSE TO SELL:

If you are thinking of moving and have yet to put your house on the market, or if you are on with another estate agent and have yet to find a buyer, I would welcome the opportunity of sharing my 30 years of estate agency experience with you. Please call Gavin Human for a free, confidential valuation and marketing review with no obligation.
