This attractive three-bedroom cottage offers a lifestyle centred around space, flow and connection to the countryside, while remaining well placed for everyday amenities and transport links. Just ten minutes from Chatteris, approximately thirty minutes from Ely and around an hour from Cambridge, the location provides an appealing balance between calm and connectivity.
The property is approached via ample off-road parking, with multiple spaces available, including two directly in front of the double garage. This practical arrival space is a real advantage for family life, visiting guests or those requiring additional storage for hobbies and outdoor pursuits.
Internally, the ground floor layout has been carefully arranged to offer both separation and cohesion between the main living spaces. The kitchen sits at the front of the property and provides a generous, sociable environment for cooking and everyday dining. From here, the home flows naturally into the dining area within the extension, creating a transitional space that links the kitchen and living room while maintaining clear definition between each area.
This layout works particularly well for modern living, keeping the kitchen and living room separate so that cooking activity and aromas do not spill into the main relaxation space, while still allowing the home to feel connected and easy to move through. The extension, although an addition, has been well maintained and thoughtfully integrated, successfully pulling together the two principal ground floor rooms and enhancing the overall sense of space.
Beyond the dining area, the living room is positioned to the rear of the property and enjoys views over the garden. Centred around a wood-burner, it provides a warm and inviting retreat, ideal for quieter evenings or family time. The connection between kitchen, dining and living areas creates a natural rhythm to the home, well suited to both everyday life and entertaining.
The solid roof dining area further enhances the flexibility of the ground floor, offering a usable space throughout the year. With French doors opening out toward the rear of the garden or to the garage and side gate, it strengthens the relationship between the house and garden and lends itself to a variety of uses, from a second sitting area to a garden room or home office.
Outside, the wrap-around garden offers multiple seating areas and a sense of privacy, with space to entertain, relax or explore more practical uses such as a vegetable patch. The layout allows the garden to evolve alongside the needs of its owners, whether that’s family living or a quieter, more lifestyle-led approach.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms comprising two good-sized doubles and a generous single room, ideal for a child’s bedroom, guest room or home office.
The property will appeal to families or couples seeking a home that feels connected to its rural surroundings, while still offering access to nearby towns and transport links. For those who enjoy outdoor pursuits, the surrounding area provides additional lifestyle benefits, including fishing lakes within walking distance at Skylark Garden Centre, reinforcing the sense of countryside living on the doorstep.
Overall, this is a home that has been arranged to live well, offering space, separation and flow in equal measure, set within a rural environment that feels peaceful without feeling remote.
