This property has been thoughtfully renovated and extended to create a harmonious, spacious home with a refined palette of heritage paints and materials.

After walking through the elegant front door, the welcoming entrance hall leads to a generous kitchen featuring a central island and attractive views over the west-facing rear garden. The kitchen opens into a spacious living room filled with natural light, which also benefits from a second entrance directly from the hallway, creating an excellent flow throughout the ground floor. French doors enable access directly to the paved outdoor terrace.
From the living room, there is access to both a useful utility room and a separate dining room, again with French doors opening to the terrace and garden beyond.
To the right of the entrance hall is a peaceful sitting room, complete with a charming wood-burning stove, which in turn leads to a convenient ground floor WC. This sitting room/WC might be used as a ground floor level-access bedroom suite.
The first floor continues the harmonious flow of the house, comprising four well-proportioned double bedrooms, with three benefiting from built-in storage. Bedrooms one and two each feature walk-in wardrobes leading through to their own en-suite bathrooms. The remaining bedrooms are served by a bright and spacious family bathroom, complete with both a separate walk-in shower and bathtub.
Outside, the property enjoys a delightful mature walled garden, providing a secluded and tranquil setting for year-round entertaining. A generous, paved terrace creates the perfect space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while established planting, mature trees and neat lawn enhance the garden's peaceful atmosphere. Adjacent to the garden is off-street parking, accessed through secure double gates at the rear of the property.
Families will benefit from the property's proximity to King's Ely, one of the country's most prestigious independent day and boarding schools for pupils aged 2 to 18. Renowned for its excellent academic standards, outstanding pastoral care and extensive extracurricular opportunities, the school is conveniently located within easy reach of the property.
For those interested in outdoor pursuits, there is easy access to the river for water sports and fishing, to Ely Country Park for its walking and running trails, and to nearby children’s playgrounds.
For commuters, Ely railway station offers superb transport connections, with Cambridge approximately 17 miles away and direct services to London's King's Cross taking around 70 minutes. This is an ideal location for those seeking the charm and character of an historic cathedral city, combined with excellent connectivity to Cambridge and the capital.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a beautiful and functional home that has been thoughtfully refurbished and extended, sitting within beautiful historic environs yet perfectly placed for the convenience needs of modern life.
