4 Bed Cottage For Sale

Cakebreade Cottage is a beautifully appointed Grade II listed four-bedroom family home, extended and refurbished throughout, situated in a quiet position in generous picturesque grounds, about 8 miles from Cambridge.

Nestled up a private driveway in a quiet position, this detached house has been a labor of love for the current vendor, with the original cottage in parts dating back to 1550. The property has been reconfigured and lovingly restored to the highest quality and finest detail, and impressive oak and glass extensions have been added to provide versatile living spaces with modern features and finishes, with a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining room being the hub of the home.

The main entrance hallway is laid with attractive flagstone flooring, and there is direct access to the garden through a set of glazed doors. There is a useful deep storage cupboard and a shower room. Off the hallway is the kitchen, which is well appointed with stylish shaker style low level cupboards with granite work surfaces, a range cooker, integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer. The utility room has a stable door leading to the side of the property, and there are matching units to the kitchen with space and plumbing for a washing machine. The kitchen opens to the dining area, which boasts an oak framed vaulted ceiling and is flooded with natural light and overlooks the garden. An inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove is the focal point of the formal living room, which enjoys a dual aspect and leads to the morning room, which also boasts a feature inglenook. A relaxing snug links the main house to the barn which serves as a self-contained annexe with a shower room and clever bespoke hidden kitchen.

On the first floor are three double bedrooms accessed via separate staircases, there are ensuite cloakrooms in two of the bedrooms and a freestanding bath in the guest room.
