4 bed detached house for sale

High Street, Swavesey, Cambridge CB24

A fantastic family home, steeped in history and nestled conveniently along the High Street and within easy reach of both Swavesey Village College and the Guided Busway.

Occupying a delightful position along the High Street, this attractive detached Grade II listed family home dates back to circa 1830 and has been subsequently extended to provide generous and versatile accommodation extending to approximately 1,292 sq ft (120 sq m).

The property offers a wealth of character and charm, with well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors. The ground floor comprises three reception rooms, including a sitting room, living room and a separate dining room accessed directly from the kitchen. The farmhouse-style kitchen was refitted in 2020 and features wooden work surfaces and a range of base-level storage units. An independent staircase from the kitchen provides access to the second bedroom, whilst further internal access leads to the adjoining garage, which also benefits from a separate WC.

To the first floor, the accommodation continues with four bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a separate WC, providing practical facilities for family living.

Externally, the property occupies an established plot extending to approximately 0.17 acres. To the side, a garage is complemented by driveway parking to the front. The fully enclosed rear garden is a particularly appealing feature, enjoying a mature and established setting with a variety of trees, well-stocked borders and a generous patio area, laid with a combination of block paving and paving slabs, providing an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. The patio is conveniently accessed directly from the rear of the property.

Further improvements include the installation of bespoke, handmade rear windows, all of which were fitted in 2024.
