3 bedroom detached bungalow for sale

Tucked into the quiet stretch of Colletts Bridge Lane, this three-bedroom home offers a rare mix of modern living and genuine countryside openness. Beyond its welcoming hallway, you’ll find a spacious kitchen with a breakfast bar and a comfortable living room where French doors frame the garden and fields beyond. All three bedrooms are sensibly sized, with the master benefiting from a bay window and its own WC for everyday convenience. What truly makes this property stand out, though, is the outdoor space. The main garden is enclosed and family-friendly, but it’s the additional parcel of land beyond the back fence that sets it apart, a generous, allotment-style area that neighbours have used for everything from raised beds to chicken coops or substantial storage. Even with a public footpath running through, it offers valuable room to personalise and make productive. With ample off-road parking and Elm’s down-to-earth village feel all around you, this home pairs comfort with a level of outdoor potential that’s hard to find elsewhere.

The Location

Elm is a small, calm and genuinely down-to-earth village. It has that typical Fenland feel, big open skies, long straight roads, and fields stretching out around you. Life moves at a gentler pace here. People tend to know their neighbours, and there’s a steady, lived-in atmosphere.

It’s the kind of place where you’ll hear birds, tractors and quiet mornings more often than traffic.

Day-to-day, Elm has the essentials you actually use: a primary school, a convenience shop, a couple of pubs and some practical local services. Nothing flashy, just the basics that make village life workable without having to drive miles for everything. Buses run to nearby towns like Wisbech and March, so even if you’re not constantly on the road, you’re not isolated.

For bigger shops, rail links or wider services, you just head into those towns, they're close enough that it doesn’t feel like a chore.

The village has plenty of history too, grounding it with a sense of place. Older houses, a traditional parish church with a long past, and bits of heritage dotted through the area all add character. The wider parish includes surrounding hamlets and a lot of farmland, which is part of why Elm feels spacious and rural.

If you enjoy space, quieter roads and that steady, peaceful “village rhythm,” Elm fits well. It suits families, people who prefer a calmer environment, or anyone who wants countryside living without being completely removed from amenities. You get field views, rural charm and a friendly community but still enough access to nearby towns and major routes to make life practical.
