Rosemary & Lavender Cottage is a quintessential English country property, formerly two cottages, dating back to the 17th Century which has been transformed into a superb and substantial family home on the outskirts of one of most sought-after villages in Cambridgeshire. Since purchasing the house, the current owners have carried out an impressive programme of extension and renovation and now offer beautifully presented and extensive accommodation laid out over three floors. The layout is hugely versatile with a possible ground floor bedroom with en-suite, a lower ground floor self-contained annexe with its own access, ideal for dependent relative, nanny or teenager as well as flexible, detached outbuildings. The ground floor offers a good range of reception rooms including a lovely, fully fitted, vaulted kitchen/breakfast room with central island and French doors to the terrace, a useful study/, characterful dining room and sitting room with inglenook fireplaces, a bedroom/family room and two bathrooms. On the first floor are four further bedrooms, served by three staircases so all fully accessible, and a family bathroom.

The delightful south-facing gardens, extending to around 0.75 acres, are mainly laid to lawn and are wonderfully secluded with exceptional views across the meadow beyond.
