Hockeys proudly presents this exceptional property, boasting a remarkable history that adds to its unique allure. With a 94-year-old heritage, this residence has never been available on the open market and has been cherished by only two families throughout its existence. While it requires comprehensive renovation, the potential it holds is vast. Currently occupying a one-acre plot, the property comprises a house, a spacious barn, a single garage, a paddock and stables.

The words "blank canvas" and "undiscovered jewel" fall short when attempting to capture the essence of this idyllic setting. Surprisingly, despite its tranquil ambience, the property is conveniently located a mere six miles from the heart of Cambridge. Additionally, it is less than two miles away from Waterbeach Station, allowing for easy access to London in under an hour via the fast train. Notably, this property is not listed, does not fall within a conservation area, and is not subjected to any development restrictions imposed by the vendor.

Approached via a private driveway, the existing house sits comfortably away from the road. Inside, it offers three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, two reception rooms, and a generously sized kitchen. The delightful hallway features an inviting wide staircase adorned with a turned balustrade. The property enjoys over 7 metres of space on each side, providing ample room for future extensions, subject to the necessary planning permissions. The mature gardens, albeit currently overgrown, display an abundance of attractive shrubs and perennials. In the past, the rear lawn even accommodated a tennis court. Beyond the barn lies a pony paddock, 4 small stables,  a hay and straw store and a small orchard, adding to the charm of this remarkable property.

The nearby A10 provides convenient access to the A14, Cambridge and Ely, with the railway station in Waterbeach also providing fast access into Cambridge and London.

Landbeach has a church and a Baptist chapel, both with regular communities, a thriving village hall and a bar and social club called “The Old Forge”. The village hall runs weekly coffee mornings and a regular lunch club. Local events and get-togethers are held at The Tithe Barn which is a grade II listed, sixteenth century, thatched, timber-framed and weatherboarded building. The barn is owned by a charitable trust which has modernized and re-thatched the building.

The playing field has tennis courts, a children’s play area, and a sports field for cricket and football. There is a “pocket park” for free dog walking and a millennium wood, three big fields belonging to SCDC for the benefit of the community.

Primary schooling is available at the neighbouring Waterbeach Primary School located about 1.5 miles (2.41 kilometres) away and rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted. Secondary schooling is provided at Cottenham Village College, located about 3 miles (4.83 kilometres) away plus a number of secondary schooling options are available at the wealth of independent schools in Cambridge (Perse, St Mary’s, Leys, Sanction Wood, St Faiths, Heritage, St John’s) and in Ely there is The Kings School.
