About this property

Located in Buckden is this detached five bedroom period family home, with a double garage and off road parking.

Originally dating from approximately the 1840s, with extensions added in the early 1900s, this property has undergone a major transformation throughout, blending period charm with modern touches.

Welcome To Church Street - Step inside an entrance hall, with space to hang coats and bags, leading through to a welcoming reception room. Built-in seating and storage frame a beautiful bay window, the perfect spot to sit and read. An oak mantelpiece forms the focal point of the room, with shelving and cupboards on either side. Currently used as a playroom, this space could equally serve as an additional lounge or a formal dining room.

To the right is the lounge and dining room, where you are immediately struck by the thoughtfully designed features and clever use of space. Two large bay windows flood the room with natural light, creating a calm and cosy atmosphere. The lounge area has a fireplace with a traditional log burner, patterned tiles, and a classic mantel. Built-in shelving with feature lighting, along with cupboard storage, provide stylish and practical additions. Underfoot is a combination of carpet and wooden flooring, leading through to the dining area. A modern log burner sits at this end of the room, ideal for hosting loved ones around a large dining table. The jewel in this room’s crown is the timeless cast-iron radiator, a true showstopper.

The kitchen features an array of original details, including a cast-iron stove and a beautifully arched window. Cream shaker-style cabinets and oak worktops lend a charming cottage feel, complemented by a Belfast sink. Appliances include an integrated under-counter fridge, a Bosch dishwasher, and a microwave. Off the kitchen is a hallway with additional space for hanging coats and bags, as well as a large walk-in pantry. A spacious utility room follows, offering further worktop space, storage, and room for a fridge, washing machine, and tumble dryer. Completing the living space is a convenient W/C.

Sleeping Quarters. - Upstairs are five bedrooms, each offering its own individual features. The main bedroom has a large bay window at its centre, providing views across to the green, along with a walk-in dressing room. The en-suite includes a double walk-in shower complete with copper shower heads, a vanity unit with a feature bowl sink and copper tap, and a traditional towel radiator.

Bedrooms two and three enjoy views to the front of the property and both feature cast-iron fireplaces. Bedroom four is a good size and is currently used as a guest bedroom. Bedroom five is situated at the rear of the house and is flooded with natural light from its double windows. It includes built-in wardrobes for storage and offers fantastic garden views extending across to the spire of St Mary’s Church.

The family bathroom has been tastefully transformed into a luxurious retreat, featuring a roll-top bath, a separate shower, and additional storage for towels and bedding.

The Garden - Outside is a south-west-facing garden with space for all the family to enjoy. Steps lead down to a patio area suitable for garden furniture, creating an ideal spot for hosting family and friends during the warmer months. There is a large lawn with ample room for children’s play equipment, along with raised planting beds for growing your own produce. Two log stores, and sheds provide secure storage for gardening equipment.

To the rear is a brick-built, double-glazed outbuilding, currently used as a gym, though it could easily be transformed into an office for those who work from home. Access to the front and the garage is via a side gate, where there is driveway parking for three cars. The garage features an electric door and offers plenty of space to park an additional car and store bicycles. The driveway is framed by iron gates, providing added security.

An additional garden space is located at the front of the property, featuring a neat lawn with a box hedge, and a spectacular red climbing pyracantha that beautifully frames the double frontage.

The property also benefits from eco-friendly solar panels, and an electric vehicle charging point.

What's In The Area? - The property is located at the heart of the village, a stones-throw away from the excellent Buckden CofE Primary School, a private day nursery, and pre-school, making it ideal for a growing family. The village has a range of amenities including a Post Office, convenience stores, a well renowned Butchers and three pubs, as well as a Doctors surgery, pharmacy, and hairdressers. Countryside walks are right on the doorstep, along with excellent sports facilities at the local playing fields. For commuters, the A1(M) and A14 are just minutes away, with nearby mainline train stations in Huntingdon and St Neots offering fast services into London King’s Cross and St Pancras.
