Swavesey itself has a diverse community and is popular with families, due to the successful Primary School and Outstanding Ofsted-rated Village College. There is a convenience store with Post Office and a thatched village shop situated in an historic market square, as well as various churches, a coffee shop, butchers and farm shop and a public house serving a wide range of real ales. On the green sits an attractive pavilion, used by the community. Swavesey is also fortunate to have the wonderful RSPB nature reserve at Fen Drayton lakes leading to miles of walks along the river and a stop for the guided bus. With the completion of the expansion to the A14, residents now benefit from better-flowing traffic, cycle paths and additional local byroads. The village also has a stop for the guided bus, which travels through the nature reserve to St Ives and Cambridge city centre and Addenbrookes. Parallel to the track is a cycle path which is popular for runners, cyclists and walkers.
EPC Rating: C
Garden
The extensive garden, with a southerly aspect, is designed to provide various areas of enjoyment. To the rear of the kitchen, and accessed via bi-folding doors, is a large patio area with pergola and climbing plants offering shade. The main part of the cottage-style garden is laid to lawn, with mature trees providing privacy and well-stocked borders, a timber lean-to, a timber shed and an arch takes you through to the bottom part of the garden where there is a raised deck area with above ground pool, complete with pump and filter included in the sale. (TBC). Adjoining the rear of the garage is a converted outbuilding that is insulated with underfloor heating and a vaulted ceiling with Velux window; this is a perfect studio/home office/snug and located away from the house itself, and also offers potential as a self-contained annexe, with planning permission for a bedroom and shower room to be added.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
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
