The Old Court House is an impressive Victorian period property which was part of the original Wimpole Hall Estate as a Magistrates Court and Police houses. Retaining a wealth of period features, the house offers elegant, light-filled spaces totalling almost 3,500 sq. ft. arranged over two floors.

The spacious open-plan kitchen and orangery are flooded with natural light via a large lantern roof and tall French doors to the terrace. Alongside is a utility and cloakroom, with a luxurious formal dining room completing the floor.

In addition, the ground floor has an array of high-ceilinged reception rooms, including a breath-taking drawing room with French doors to the landscaped topiary garden, a sitting room, a snug and a bright study, all of which feature characterful fireplaces.

With two staircases to the first floor, there are 5 generously sized bedrooms, one of which features an ensuite shower room. There also a modern family bathroom with dual sinks.

The property boasts a contemporary landscaped garden and is completely private thanks to tall topiary hedging. Two large, gravelled driveways, accessed via Automatic Gates from the main road, give plenty of off-road parking and access to the house and its separate detached garage. A terrace spans the width of the property and a large decked area provide the ideal spots for al fresco dining and entertaining. Surrounding are sections of carefully manicured level lawn and formal borders, while vibrant climbing plants adorn the home’s façade.

Within walking distance to the Wimpole Hall National Trust estate, the charming and picturesque village of Arrington offers a village hall, several local clubs, a public house, church, and a plethora of countryside pursuits surrounding. The village is also a ten-minute drive to nearby Royston, which has trainline access to King Cross Station in under 40 minutes and Cambridge in under 15 minutes. Royston also provides an extensive array of amenities including supermarkets, shops, sports clubs, a leisure centre, doctors’, and dentists’ surgeries. The M11 is under 10 miles distant, offering convenient road links. Notable schools in the area include King’s College and St Francis’, St Edmund’s and St John’s Colleges.

Royston station 5.7 miles (Cambridge 14 minutes, London Kings Cross 36 minutes), M11 (J12) 9 miles, Cambridge 11.1 miles, London Stanstead Airport 31.3 miles

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
