Built with a timber frame and rendered elevations under a tiled roof, this property is arranged over two floors and extends to over 3200 sq ft. College Farm House benefits from spacious living accommodation which is well-maintained and full of character whilst providing the convenience of modern day living, making this a perfect family home.


Fen Drayton is a popular village situated between Cambridge and St Ives. Local facilities include a primary school, village hall, tennis courts, football pitches, The Three Tuns Public House and the church of St Mary.

Secondary school education is available at Swavesey Village College, an outstanding OFSTED school, about 1.5 miles and just to the north of the village is the Fen Drayton Nature Reserve, an 108 hectare reserve comprising 4 lakes and habitat to some 190 species of bird along with other associated wildlife.

For the commuter there are mainline railway stations at Cambridge, or Huntingdon both providing services to London's King's Cross. Road communications are good with the A14 within about 1 mile connecting with the M11 to the south, A1M to the north and within 45 minutes of Stansted airport. The guided bus service runs from Huntingdon to Cambridge with a Park and Ride site at nearby Longstanton.

Outside
To the front of the property, behind a low level brick wall is a gated driveway which provides off street parking for several vehicles and leads to an integral double Garage with up and over doors. A side pedestrian gate offers access to the lovely secluded rear garden, mainly laid to lawn with a variety of trees, mature shrub borders, a separate area with raised beds and greenhouse which would make a perfect kitchen garden and a brick-built summer house. Adjacent to the rear elevation is a paved terrace offering a perfect spot for al fresco dining in the warmer months.

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
