3 bed link detached house for sale

Armingford Crescent, Melbourn SG8

Property Insight

Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after village of Melbourn, this link-detached family home offers noticeably more space than its position first suggests. Arranged across two floors, the accommodation runs to around 1,062 sq ft and includes two separate reception rooms, a fitted kitchen with adjoining utility, a ground-floor WC and an integral garage, giving a genuinely flexible footprint for family life. The house is well presented and ready to move straight into, while the garage and generous plot leave clear scope to extend or reconfigure further down the line, subject to the usual consents (STPP). It is a practical, comfortable home in one of the area's most established villages.

A welcoming entrance hall leads through to the main living space, where a comfortable lounge takes a window to the front and centres on a feature fireplace. An archway opens through to the dining room, creating an easy connection between the two while keeping them as distinct rooms - the dining room in turn opening onto the garden through sliding patio doors, making it a natural spot for meals and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with white traditional-style units and laminate worktops, with a gas hob, integrated oven and dishwasher, and a window over the sink looking onto the garden. Adjoining it, a separate utility provides further worktop space, plumbing for a washing machine and a door out to the rear.

Upstairs, the landing - with its own store cupboard - leads to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. Two are comfortable doubles, while the third works well as a single bedroom, nursery or home office, as it is currently used. The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite, with a bath and shower over, and there is the added convenience of the ground-floor WC below. Outside, the rear garden is a real feature: A good-size, enclosed plot laid mainly to lawn, with paved patio areas at both ends, a brick pathway and established, well-stocked borders framing the space. To the front, a driveway sits alongside the integral garage. A comfortable home ready to enjoy from day one, in a quiet and settled position.

Location – Melbourn

Melbourn is a large parish village in the far southwest of Cambridgeshire, 3 miles from Royston and 11 miles from Cambridge. It has a long history of occupation stemming from the springs and the River Mel, which rises at Melbourn Bury and runs clear and shallow over chalk and gravel. There are many countryside walks, including several ancient trackways crossing the parish. Melbourn is a bustling village offering two village shops, a pharmacy, doctor's and dentist surgeries, two traditional pubs, the highly regarded Sheene Mill restaurant and hotel, and a spa opposite. There are a number of parks and a wide range of clubs for all ages. Schooling runs from pre-school options through primary to secondary within the village, and there are two churches, including All Saints' Church, dating from the 13th Century. Meldreth station is within walking distance, Royston's mainline station offers fast services to Cambridge and London Kings Cross, and the A1M and M11 are within a 20-minute drive.
