The Property
A little piece of idyllic rural England, perfect for home food self-reliance or a start-up small market garden, but within an easy commute of Cambridge and direct mainline train service to London. For the boat lover Littleport boasts its own marina and a lovely village local on the side of the river Great Ouse giving navigable access to Cambridge, the midlands and the North Sea. All this and a gorgeous, energy efficient, tastefully retrofit, early Edwardian spacious detached home. This large three bedroom detached Edwardian house has recently been substantially retrofitted with many energy efficiency measures and improvements, making it very economical to run, whilst retaining and enhancing the original Edwardian character and feeling of space. Externally there is a large integral garage and workshop; a useful WC and wood store, two big sheds and a good-sized greenhouse. Outside is a large patio area, a formal top garden with mature trees and an extremely large rear garden, currently down to grass with a natural pond and a river boundary backing onto open fields, there are also pear trees and soft fruit including a fig tree.

The property has scope for further energy efficiency innovations and has potential for “Off-grid” living with the addition of solar PV with battery storage and a heat pump. City Road, Littleport is a quiet, friendly street in a vibrant, growing, yet still affordable, small Cambridgeshire town boasting new schools, sports facilities, cafe's and restaurants, shops and many other amenities.
