Lingdale
Set well back from the road, and wrapped in three acres of hugely versatile land, Lingdale sits in a very peaceful and private elevated position on Paxton Hill, with far reaching views over the surrounding countryside. Behind automated gates, this lovely three / four bedroom home offers spacious single floor living flooded with bags of natural light in every room.
Situated on the edge of the friendly village of Great Paxton, with all it’s community activities, Lingdale is also just a very short drive to the riverside town of St Neots. Here you will find lots of amenities such as cinema, restaurants, shops, a highly regarded golf club as well as being just a 45-minute commute to London.
Lingdale has some great features including, but not limited to an impressive paved driveway and turning circle and a timber-built log cabin style garden building, currently used as a fun bar room with pool table and dart board. The star feature though, without question, has to be the huge, west facing terrace with a beautiful 32’ heated pool. You are spoilt for choice on this terrace for areas to sit and enjoy both the panoramic views and the sunsets. When the weather is good, it would be very easy to feel like you were in a very salubrious villa in Marbella.
This superb plot extends right down to the railway line to the west, which is screened by some mature trees. The trains that pass buy here only disturb the peace and tranquillity for just 5 seconds at a time. Whist for some, this occasional noise might be an issue, the undoubted benefit is that there will never be any development of the land to spoil your views.
Whilst there is a substantial lawned garden to the south, the majority of the land, also laid to grass, is to the northern side. There is approximately two acres here that has been a fruit orchard in years gone by, which would be absolutely perfect for anyone looking to create some equestrian facilities or even with the relevant permissions, to run a business from. The Highways agency has within the last two years approved additional vehicular access to facilitate this. You really are only limited by your own imagination with regards to a use for this land.
Entrance
Covered porch and front door to a Light and airy hall giving access to all the reception rooms via glazed doors. The alarm system and gate controls are located here, which allow you communicate with your visitors via an integrated intercom system and let in only those you wish to.
Kitchen Breakfast room
The Kitchen is fitted with quality, honey coloured medium oak units, whilst the tiled flooring benefits from underfloor heating for those colder days. The built-in appliances include a handsome ‘Diplomat’ range, a fridge/freezer, microwave oven and a very handy waste disposal unit. The Utility room is accessed from here where all the noisy appliances can be hidden away. French doors also give access to one of many seating areas, this one is a delightful patio, perfect for your morning coffee and breakfast, weather allowing.
Dining Room
A lovely bright room with views over the garden in two directions and French doors to the main terrace with countryside views.
Lounge
This is a very welcoming room with a smart feature fireplace crafted from Portuguese marble. However, when you enter the lounge from either the dining room or the entrance hall, you will be hard pressed to notice anything other than the stunning view of the terrace and pool through the sliding patio doors.
Principal Bedroom
With views over the driveway, the two acres to the side and the rear terrace, this is a great size room covering the entire width of the property. There is an en-suite shower room, vanity area and lots of fitted furniture. There is also access to a further potential fourth bedroom or nursery from here, which is currently used as a dressing room. Once again though, the view directly over the pool with access through sliding patio doors steals the show. A morning swim is literally just a few steps from your bed.
Other Rooms
As well as two further good size bedrooms, one of which currently used as a study, there is a good size family bathroom with a white fitted suite including a raised corner ‘air bath’ and a bidet.
Outside
To the front there is a blocked paved driveway with an impressive turning circle with access to storage sheds and a garage. The three acres of garden / land is almost entirely laid to grass and interspersed with a range of mature trees and shrubs.
The log cabin style garden building could be used for any purpose, such as a home office etc, but is currently fitted out as a bar and games room.
There are six different seating areas on the various patios and terrace allowing you to decide on whichever view you fancy, or whether you would like sun or shade. With the heated 32’ x 16’ pool and the fantastic galleried terrace, this is surely one of the best outside entertaining spaces on the market.
The whole plot is screened on all sides by mature trees and hedging, to the front however, there is a lovely woodland spinney running the entire length of the plot. All of which affords Lingdale a very high degree of privacy security.<br /><br />
