House For Sale £725,000
Introduction
‘Living here is like living in a garden. You can follow the sun around the grounds all day!’ The current owners of Field Cottage adore its stunning, rural setting, and tranquil, verdant lawns - but this exceptional property also has much more to offer.
With rustic, timber-framed, whitewashed walls, a fetching thatched roof, stout beams, and period inglenook fireplace, Field Cottage speaks of a past where things were built to last.
But at the same time, it has kept up with the times, and has an eye firmly on the future. Extended since it was built in around the eighteenth century, it has acquired a pool, shower room, summer houses and outbuildings, complemented by three very large reception rooms and a roomy conservatory.
It’s a marriage of space, seclusion, and exclusivity, from its sweeping, gated driveway, to the rolling fields that surround it.
And with massive development potential on 0.25 acres, plus further land available, this love story is ready for someone to write its next chapter.
Lounging in luxury
This is a home that knows how to welcome guests.
It starts with a spacious, well-lit lounge, offering a serene view of the garden greenery and its many decorative features.
It’s perfect for chilling on a summer’s day, but with its tasteful, brick hearth and rustic brick wall features, it’s as snug a space as you could wish for on a winter’s evening, too.
And with generous floorspace, and room for at least two sofas, this handsome room delivers for stand-up parties and extended family gatherings alike.
In short: Grace and space in your living-place!
Nights in white: A rural dream
Under the big, dark, West Anglian night skies, the white walls and twinkling lights of Field Cottage are nothing short of enchanting.
And with its four generously sized bedrooms, including a very large master bedroom, to spend a night at Field Cottage is to leave the day’s noise and worry behind and be at one with the quiet and repose of your surroundings.
With nights like that, tomorrow cannot be anything but a good day!
Far from the crowd, close to what matters
Think of a hamlet and it’s easy to imagine a place miles from civilisation – but at Field Cottage nothing could be further from the truth.
The Cambridgeshire market town of St. Neots is less than five minutes’ drive away. To the west, Bedford beckons in under 25 minutes, and to the east, Cambridge is just over half an hour distant. Each has shops, rail links to London and elsewhere, and schools and colleges.
Buses run from just a few yards away from the cottage, and there are pleasant walks across fields to local pubs and restaurants.
The acclaimed Wyboston Lakes golf course and spa is also just minutes away on the A1.
Scope for so much more
As if Field Cottage didn’t already offer enough, just consider its potential!
Aside from the land included in the sale, the additional purchase of adjoining land can also be negotiated, giving access to an existing tennis court and potential new development opportunities.
And with outbuildings in good repair, some of which are in use as artisans’ workshops and similar, and one of which has planning permission for an annexe, further opportunities are not in short supply!
Field Cottage: So much history, so much beauty, so much potential. A rare sight (and site) indeed. EPC rating: F.
