House For Sale £1,400,000
Substantial family home in South Cambridge village.
Description
5 High Meadow is a substantial five bedroom family home on a plot of approximately 0.2 acres, set within a small development of just ten houses built in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s. Set back nicely from the road, there is ample space for multiple cars at the front where a path leads up through the front lawn to the front door.
Inside, all rooms span from the central hallway with high quality wooden floors only in the hall and living room, and high ceilings. Immediately to the right as you enter is an impressive dual aspect sitting room which spans the width of the house. A large fireplace with an inset wood burner takes centre stage while double doors open up to the garden at the rear.
The kitchen/family room has been created by the current owners and now offers a large open space with white cabinetry and Corian worktops. The kitchen is well equipped with a steam and conventional oven, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and wine cooler, all of which is centred around a unique horseshoe shaped island. Just off the kitchen is the utility room with space for a washing machine, tumble drier and dish washer, as well as a sink. The side door comes in to the utility room, which is handy when bringing shopping in from the double garage or front of the house. The dining room is directly adjacent and has double doors leading out to the garden.
At the other end of the hall is a room currently used as a snug/second sitting room although the room would make an ideal home office or could be easily converted into another bedroom for older parents etc to visit, as it is next to the downstairs cloakroom.
Upstairs are five double bedrooms and the family bathroom. Of particular note is the principal bedroom which has been remodelled by the previous owners and features a walk in dressing area. At the far end is a large bathroom with a walk in shower as well as a separate bath. Furthermore there is an en suite shower room for the guest bedroom and beautifully re designed family bathroom which incorporates both a large walk in shower and separate bath.
Outside, the garden is mainly laid to lawn with a large patio area for outside dining. A high hedge at the rear which provides a high level of privacy as well as a herbaceous border to one side. The focal point of the garden is the garden office which the current owners installed in 2019 and offers a tremendously adaptable space as it could be used as an office, gym or games room. The office also offers the benefit of its own cloakroom facilities and air conditioning.
