- Landscaped Rear Garden
- Over Half an Acre
This individually designed home blends contemporary architecture with its idyllic rural setting, creating a beautifully balanced residence of exceptional quality.
Tucked away along a quiet country lane in the highly regarded South Cambridgeshire village of Arrington, the property enjoys open field views and a wonderfully private position. Built to exacting standards by the current owners, the house has been thoughtfully planned to maximise space, light and flow, resulting in a truly distinctive family home.
Set within grounds of over half an acre, the landscaped rear garden is a particular highlight, enjoying far-reaching views across open countryside. Designed to offer both privacy and tranquillity, the garden features a sunken terrace ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation, with mature planting creating a natural and inviting backdrop. To the front, there is ample off-road parking for several vehicles, together with access to a detached double garage.
The accommodation extends to approximately 2,831 sq ft, arranged over three floors and offering generous, well-proportioned living space ideally suited to modern family life. The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, which opens directly onto the garden, providing a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A separate sitting room offers a more intimate space to relax, while a dedicated office provides an ideal environment for home working.
The first floor features a luxurious principal bedroom suite, alongside three further bedrooms and family bathrooms, all arranged around a bright and spacious landing. The second floor provides two additional bedrooms, offering flexibility for guests, older children or alternative uses. Including the detached double garage, the total footprint extends to approximately 3,498 sq ft, completing a home that combines scale, comfort and elegance with ease.
Seller Insight
Set within a peaceful country lane in the sought-after village of Arrington, Craig and Jackie have created a home that sits within a landscape rich in history and character. The village is intersected by the ancient Roman road, Ermine Street, while the nearby medieval Clopton Way offers picturesque walking routes through the surrounding countryside, lending the area a timeless and distinctive charm.
“This is our third self-build project and by far our most accomplished. Managing the build ourselves allowed us to design a home that reflects our lifestyle, with a strong emphasis on quality, comfort and practicality. Being so closely involved also meant we could incorporate high-quality fixtures and finishes throughout.”
“The open-plan living space has always been the heart of the home. It’s wonderfully light, with French doors opening onto the garden, and the log burner creates a cosy focal point during the winter months. It works perfectly for everyday living but really comes into its own when we are entertaining family and friends.”
“We gave just as much thought to the garden as we did the house. Backing onto open countryside, it feels calm and private, and the sunken patio has become our favourite place to unwind on warm summer evenings. Whether hosting friends or simply enjoying the peace and views, it’s a space we’ve truly loved.”
“Despite the rural setting, the location is incredibly convenient. Royston is around fifteen minutes away with mainline services into King’s Cross, while Cambridge can be reached in under thirty minutes and offers an outstanding choice of culture, shopping and dining. There are excellent state and independent schools nearby, along with beautiful walks, leisure facilities, Wimpole Hall and the Imperial War Museum at Duxford.”
“This has been a very special and much-loved home for us, filled with wonderful memories. We leave knowing it offers not just a beautiful house, but an exceptional lifestyle in a truly peaceful and rewarding setting.”
