COMMANDING a PRIME POSITION that cascades onto the MANICURED FAIRWAYS of RAMSEY GOLF COURSE, 'BROOKLANDS' is a RARE OPPORTUNITY to own a slice of CAMBRIDGESHIRE HISTORY. GRADE II LISTED & dating from circa 1693, this MAGNIFICENT FIVE DOUBLE BEDROOM home marries 17th CENTURY CHARM with an ELEGANT VICTORIAN EXTENSION, offering 5,237 sq ft of BEAUTIFULLY BALANCED LIVING SPACE on a PRIVATE 0.33 of an acre plot (sts).
Behind its handsome VICTORIAN façade, original EXPOSED TIMBERS, INGLENOOK FIREPLACES & MELLOW BRICKWORK whisper of centuries past, while lofty CEILING HEIGHTS in the Victorian wing and CHARACTERFUL, beamed rooms in the original house create a delightful contrast. Every inch has been sympathetically restored with reclaimed materials; the show stopping kitchen (new in 2021) forms the sociable heart of the home, crafted for modern family life without compromising heritage.
Outside, totally walled gardens cocoon the property in privacy and year round colour, planned so that something is always in bloom. A discreet gate opens straight onto the golf course – an unrivalled backdrop for morning walks or an impromptu round. Secure, gated parking for multiple vehicles lies to the rear.
Set in the very centre of Ramsey, Brooklands places everyday conveniences on the doorstep: primary and secondary schools, independent shops, welcoming pubs and eateries are all a short stroll away. For commuters, Huntingdon (20 mins), Peterborough (30 mins) and Cambridge (40 mins) are within easy reach.
Brooklands is more than a house; it is a treasured landmark that offers modern comfort, timeless architecture and an enviable countryside lifestyle – all in one exceptional package.
