House For Sale £700,000
A rare opportunity has arisen to acquire this stunning grade II listed, detached cottage, which has been tastefully and lovingly refurbished by the current owners to achieve a very clever blend of old and new. The Watchmakers now offers the discerning buyer all the modern amenities required for life today, whilst retaining much of the character and charm of the period.
Situated in the heart of Old Eyensbury and within a very short walk of pubs, shops, eateries and other local amenities, this impressive home offers extremely versatile accommodation throughout. There are four double bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor and three separate reception rooms and a further bathroom on the ground floor.
There are two separate staircases, which would make it very easy to segregate one of the bedrooms and one of the ground floor reception rooms. This would be perfect as a guest suite or perhaps for providing a teenage child with their own space if required.
Unusually for properties of this type, there is a garage and a large driveway behind security gates providing off road parking and access directly on to St. Mary’s Street.
For families, The Watchmakers is situated within very easy reach of local schools and for commuters, St Neots train station is just 1.4 miles away.
