A private equestrian property in an accessible rural setting, comprising a two/three bedroom detached bungalow set within just under five acres of gardens and grazing land, with a large garage, stable yard, hay barn, arena and paddock grazing.
The bungalow, which is now in need of some modernisation and updating, has been enjoyed as a private equestrian home and is complemented by a practical range of facilities. Set well back from the road and approached via a long driveway, the property enjoys a pleasing sense of privacy, with its own land surrounding the residence. Local lanes and droves provide good hacking opportunities, while the competition centres of College of West Anglia at Milton, Fenning Farm, Forest Edge Arena, Ely Eventing Centre and Keysoe International are all within easy reach.
The nearby market town of Chatteris offers a good range of everyday amenities, including junior and senior schooling, a church, doctor’s surgery, dentist, supermarket and further shopping facilities. A variety of sporting and social recreation opportunities can also be found locally, while the improved road network provides convenient access to larger regional centres. Mainline rail services are available from Huntingdon, March and Ely.
A two/three bedroom detached bungalow with double-glazing and oil-fired central heating. The accommodation in brief is as follows, please refer to the floor plan for approximate room sizes.
A stable style door opens into a Utility with tiled flooring and plumbing for a washing machine. The Utility leads on to the Kitchen, which is fitted with a range of base and wall units with worksurfaces, 1½ bowl sink with mixer tap, integral electric oven and hob with extractor over (extractor not currently connected), space for fridge freezer, space for dishwasher and quarry tiled flooring.
