Set within a mature plot of over 0.66 acres and backing onto open fields, this established detached home is situated in a desirable non-estate position in the village of Hardwick, just a short drive west of Cambridge. The property is available with no onward chain and offers excellent potential for updating, extending or redevelopment, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The house is approached via a generous driveway, leading to a large detached double garage. A rear lobby provides access from the garage into the house via a spacious utility room, which is well proportioned and offers further potential for conversion or integration into the main home.
The ground floor layout begins with an enclosed porch opening into the central entrance hall, where a cloakroom/WC and storage cupboards, and stairs rising to the first floor. There is a dedicated dining room, and galley style kitchen fitted with a range of units with ample work surfaces. The generously sized living room enjoys a dual aspect and flows through into a large conservatory/garden room with wide garden views. This room spans over 20 feet and is ideally placed to take in the tranquil, mature setting and uninterrupted rural aspect.
First floor landing, the property offers four bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with built-in storage and an en-suite shower room. There are two additional double bedrooms and a smaller fourth bedroom, plus a family bathroom serving the rest of the accommodation.
Outside, the garden is a particular feature, mature, extensive, and largely laid to lawn with established borders, plants, shrubs, trees and mature hedging. A backdrop of open countryside. The overall plot exceeds 0.66 acres and provides significant scope for extension or redevelopment (STPP), making it a rare opportunity for those seeking space and potential in a well-connected village location.
Hardwick is a very popular village, about 4 miles west of the city boundary with excellent cycle routes in alongside Madingley Road. The A428 that runs north of the village gives quick access to the major road network.
Within the village is an Ofsted 'Good' primary school which feeds into Comberton Village College, a well-stocked general shop and a historic pub, The Blue Lion.
The village is surrounded by open countryside with various footpaths and bridleways over fields to the neighbouring villages. It offers a fine balance between convenient access to the city and a sense of being part of a small village community.
