Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 4 bedrooms
  • 2 reception rooms
  • 3 bathrooms
  • Detached
  • Riverside
The pretty commuter village of Hemingford Abbots has been named by 'The Telegraph' as one of the most desirable villages to live in Britain, surrounded by tranquil meadows, numerous walking and cycling trails, a 500-year-old pub (the Axe and Compass), a village hall, and playing fields. With a strong community feel, it runs into the neighbouring Hemingford Grey, sharing events such as a flower festival and the Hemingfords' Regatta.

Riverside is a wonderfully renovated home in a quiet, idyllic location on the corner of a no-through road shared with St Margaret's Church, backing on to what can only be described as a 'nature reserve' with the rear garden edging the River Ouse. A spacious entrance hallway leads to a sitting room with a view of the church to the front.

A modern walnut effect kitchen, with a tiled floor, stone worktops, and fitted appliances, opens to a dining and living area that spreads across the rear of the property, featuring twin French doors and panel windows, creating a naturally bright space with breathtaking views. A rear hallway gives access to a ground-floor shower room, a fitted study/bedroom four with a door to the paved entertainment area, a utility room, and a small garage. A bright landing area leads to a family bathroom and three bedrooms with picture-perfect views, including a principal bedroom suite with a rear terrace off the dressing area overlooking the rear garden and beyond.

The property is approached via a shared driveway with a hardstanding area at the side with double gates leading to the rear garden. A walled area gives privacy to an extensive paved entertainment area, an elevated lawn, and steps dropping off to further lawn and mature trees reaching the river with a deck for mooring. The neighbouring house has pedestrian and vehicle access, walled off for privacy.


Hemingford Abbots is a picturesque and sought-after village to the northeast of Cambridge, situated along the banks of the River Ouse, with excellent facilities. Neighbouring Hemingford Grey has a village shop, post office, primary school, a tennis club, bowls club, sports field, and the award-winning pub and restaurant, The Cock, serving modern British fayre.
The Hemingfords sit between the towns of Huntingdon and St Ives, where a wider selection of shops, restaurants and leisure facilities are available. The A14 provides quick and easy access into Cambridge and links to the A1, M11 and major road networks. Huntingdon mainline station is approximately 4.6 miles away, with regular commuter services into London Kings Cross (from 50 minutes) and St Pancras, while St Ives offers the Guided Busway service to the Cambridge Science Park and city centre. There is a good selection of local primary schools, including Hemingford Grey Primary, with several well-regarded private and state schools within easy reach.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 5, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. 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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 5, 2023

    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

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on September 6, 2016 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
