GREAT COMMON FARMHOUSE
The property is a Grade II listed 17th Century farmhouse with a wealth of original features and exposed beams with timber framed single glazed windows. The property offers great renovation potential and ample parking and benefits from spacious accommodation which once modernised will be an exceptional family home.
On the ground floor there is a hallway leading to a study and the kitchen which then leads on to two spacious reception rooms and a conservatory with lovely views and access over the large garden. The four double bedrooms are located on the first floor alongside the family bathroom and one of the bedrooms benefits from a dressing room.
The garden is 0.3 acres of lawn easily accessible from the house. The garden is shielded by mature trees and offers privacy from the road.
BUILDINGS
Included within the sale are a range of buildings including a grain store with concrete floor, open fronted store and traditional buildings. The majority of the buildings are within the farm yard however there are a range of buildings immediately to the rear of the farmhouse that offer the opportunity for conversion as part of the dwelling.
The site of these buildings is suited for redevelopment subject to planning consent and the development overage.
LAND
The land consists of approximately 4 acres of grass with 0.6 acre pond. The paddock is currently cut for hay however it would offer ideal grazing for horses or livestock, subject to improving the fencing in places and connecting to the adjoining water supply.
Due to the proximity of the land to the adjoining Cambourne development overage, the land could be developed.
