3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

Inside it is full of character, including fireplaces, stripped floorboards and ledge-and-brace timber doors. There are three good size bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor and on the ground floor, three reception rooms, a further bathroom, a new conservatory and the kitchen.

The property occupies a wider plot than many semis of its era, creating a real sense of space both inside and out. The rear garden is broad and private, facing west to capture the afternoon and evening sun. It has been attractively landscaped with a variety of mature trees, plants and shrubs set around a central lawn. From the house, a patio area provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, while the garden itself wraps around to the side, offering excellent scope for extension, subject to consent or further landscaping.

Newton is a lovely, smaller village about 3.5 miles south of Cambridge. The village is popular with those looking for a location that is close to the City and major road links (M11, J11, 3 miles), but far enough out to be more peaceful and unspoilt by recent development. There are mainline railway stations at Whittlesford (4 miles, London Liverpool St c. 75 mins) and Royston (9 miles, London Kings Cross c. 50 minutes).

Within the village there is an excellent family-owned and run local pub, well-stocked farm shop, Days bakery and cafe, a recreation ground, cricket ground with an active local club, a Sports and Social club and various local clubs and societies. Harston and Newton Primary School (OFSTED 'Good') is in neighbouring Harston, about a mile away.
