A charming and substantial Grade II Listed property with detached cottage annexe, set in a quiet location opposite the picturesque village green, in this popular south Cambridgeshire location.

The Old House is a wonderful period property, dating in part from the 17th century. Originally 2 thatched cottages, it has been altered and extended over the years with the later extensions being constructed from brick elevations under slate roofs. The spacious interior extends to 3,104 sq ft (288 sq m) and includes a wealth of original period features including exposed beams and brickwork, inglenook fireplace, panelled doors and sash windows. Finished to a high standard and beautifully presented throughout, the accommodation is vast and offers tremendous flexibility and can be reconfigured for a variety of needs.
The main residence is also complimented by a detached, one bedroom thatched cottage. This delightful annexe offers an additional and fully equipped space for numerous uses and could be ideal as an office for remote working, accommodation for a dependent relative or as potential rental property.
<br/><br/>Old House and its annexe cottage are set within a fully enclosed walled curtilage, enjoying a wonderfully quiet position opposite the tranquil village green and away from the main routes through the village. Within easy walking distance are the village’s primary school and Duxford Community Centre with its popular Café 19, and there is a good range of local footpaths to explore. Further village facilities include a store, medieval parish church, 2 public houses, Greystones Deli/Café, The Lodge Duxford which comprises a café, restaurant, work space and hotel, and Duxford Air Museum lies just 2 miles to the west. A wider range of shops and restaurants can be found in the village of Sawston which is only a short car or bicycle journey away and Waitrose supermarket in Trumpington is only a 12 minute drive away.
Rail and road communications are excellent and varied. The nearest mainline station is Whittlesford Parkway (1 mile) which provides services into London’s Liverpool Street (approximately 64 to 75 minutes), the West End (changing at Tottenham Hale approximately 70 to 80 minutes), Stansted Airport (approximately 30 minutes) and Cambridge (approximately 10 minutes). Additionally, there is a fast train commuter service from Royston (7 miles) to King’s Cross in about 38 minutes.
By car, the Trumpington Park and Ride is only 10 minutes away and runs regular services into Cambridge city centre and the A505 and M11 provide access to Stansted Airport and the M25. A wide range of cycle connections link to Addenbrooke’s Hospital/Biomedical Campus, Cambridge Mainline Railway Station and Sawston Village College and these wide ranging transport links mean access to The Wellcome Genome, Babraham Institute and The Cambridge Science Park are also all easily accessible.
