If you are looking for a modernised home with character in a rural location then Crown Cottage could be your perfect pad. This beautiful home dates back to c1850 and offers a high end finish throughout, spacious living areas and a stunning countryside view.
A beautifully crafted oak porch covers the entrance into the light and airy open plan living space. This versatile area opens into a modern, fully fitted kitchen with the rooms divided by a double sided feature log burner. Additionally a lounge or snug, also with a log burner, offers a separate, cosy space away from the main hub of the home. Both the kitchen and the main living space open onto a wrap around terrace which makes the most of the country views and south facing garden.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms which all enjoy the rural views. The spacious master suite is situated in the extended part of the property and benefits from having a walk-in wardrobe and modern ensuite. There is also a modern family bathroom with separate bath and walk-in shower.
Outside the generous plot of approximately a third of an acre soaks up the sun on a warm day and is partially laid to lawn and bordered by a range of beds and shrubs including a fantastic fruit cage. Sit on the decking next to the large feature wildlife pond and enjoy a sundowner or two, or potter in the vegetable beds and create your own kitchen garden perhaps? A good size greenhouse and large shed are conveniently placed near the beds to aid you in your green fingered adventures and offers a good amount of storage.
A free standing swimming pool and good size, insulated cabin is also included in the sale and would make a perfect home office, studio or garden room.
Full planning permission is in place for further extension (see plans in photos) to create an even more substantial home.
This lovely home is situated on the outskirts of Great Staughton, which is a well serviced village with a thriving community. The village offers a good primary school, a range of amenities including a doctors surgery, a butchers, a hair dressers and two pubs. The nearby town of St Neots has a mainline train station with fast regular trains into London Kings Cross, and the A1 is within easy reach.
