Property summary Harvey Robinson Estate Agents St Ives are delighted to present for sale this unique period cottage, set on approximately a third of an acre just outside the popular village of Somersham. Originally two semi-detached properties built in 1905, it has since been converted to one dwelling and offers a huge amount of accommodation both on the ground floor and first floor. This property would benefit from renovation inside and would be perfect for an established family, with easy access to amenities both in Somersham to the north and St Ives to the south. The accommodation comprises a renovated entrance porch with downstairs cloakroom, a spacious lobby area, a dining room with double doors to the side of the property, a 26ft lounge area with fireplace, and an extension housing the kitchen, utility room, and conservatory. On the first floor, there are three generous double bedrooms with en suite to principal bedroom, as well as a further family bathroom and separate W/C. There is also a part-converted loft area which is currently used as a gym, but would benefit from full conversion to use as a third floor of accommodation. Outside, the extensive gardens include rear and side patios, as well as a vegetable patch and brick-built summerhouse covering approximately 130sqft, complete with integrated storage and a bar. There is also a driveway to the front, with ample parking for multiple vehicles as well as a double garage.
The property overlooks agricultural fields to the rear, with uninterrupted views stretching as far as the neighbouring village of Bluntisham. Viewings of this truly unique character cottage are essential to appreciate the property, so to avoid missing out contact the St Ives office to arrange.
