Property Insight
Ensum Brown are delighted to offer for sale this generous 4-bedroom detached bungalow in the popular Cambridgeshire village of Shepreth. Offered with no upward chain, this well-presented home provides over 1,600 sq ft of light-filled, contemporary accommodation including a kitchen/breakfast room, utility, two further reception rooms, cloakroom WC, four well-proportioned bedrooms, family bathroom with four-piece suite and an en-suite to the primary bedroom. Set in a unique position backing directly onto open Shepreth fields, the property enjoys a peaceful country outlook.

This spacious bungalow enjoys a very generous frontage, positioned behind a gated entrance and surrounded by fencing and attractive brick walls. A remote-controlled timber gate opens onto an extensive block-paved driveway, giving parking for several vehicles and leading to an oak-built car-port that links directly to the back door for all-weather convenience. Front lawns with mature borders provide colour and privacy, and there is gated access to the wrap-around rear garden.

Built circa 2003, the property has an appealing double-fronted design with two rear bay windows. On entering, the reception hall is wide and bright with engineered wood flooring, inset lighting and room for furniture.

The kitchen/breakfast room is incredibly bright and inviting, enjoying large windows to a glorious garden aspect, a range of base and wall units, laminate worktops, tiled flooring and splashbacks, inset lighting, an integrated double oven, gas hob and dishwasher, and space for a fridge/freezer, breakfast setting and other small kitchen appliances. The utility room provides further storage, space for large laundry appliances, access to a WC and a side door to the car-port.

Adjacent, the dining room shares an open-plan flow with the kitchen and features engineered wood flooring, inset lighting, windows and French doors to the garden with space for a large dining table and side furniture. The lounge is a superb dual-aspect reception with French doors, an attractive decorative fireplace, plush carpets and ample room for seating. Thanks to its open-plan layout and extensive glazing the home is flooded with natural light and offers three generous reception zones ideal for modern family living.

Through to the sleeping quarters are four spacious bedrooms with integrated storage and a family bathroom comprising bath, shower, WC and hand-wash basin. The principal bedroom enjoys built-in wardrobes and its own en-suite with bath and overhead shower, WC and hand-wash basin.

Outside, the wrap-around garden is fully enclosed and mainly laid to lawn with a paved patio perfect for al-fresco dining. The rear boundary adjoins open village fields, giving uninterrupted green views, while the garden itself is regarded by the owners as a year-round “sun-pot”, benefiting from early-morning sunshine even in winter. There are well-tended beds, a good sized timber shed/workshop with power points throughout and plenty of scope for green-fingered buyers to personalise the space.

Despite its rural backdrop, the property is conveniently positioned for Shepreth station local amenities, garden centres and the larger facilities of Melbourn and Royston, both about ten minutes’ drive away. Village facilities include The Plough Pub, a newly-created public tennis court on the green and a sizeable children’s play area beside the village hall.

Early viewing of this exceptional home is strongly recommended for families, commuters and down-sizers alike.

Location - Shepreth
Shepreth is a peaceful civil parish village in South Cambridgeshire, lying 6 miles from the town of Royston and 10 miles from the city of Cambridge. While a small village, there are many attractive benefits, including a variety of shops, tea rooms, and two highly-regarded pubs offering brilliant food, beers, music, and a lively atmosphere.

The village is also home to Shepreth Wildlife Park, a famous local attraction working to conserve all manner of creatures from hedgehogs to owls, meerkats to lynx. Situated to the south of the village, the All Saints Church is a historic 12th Century building and is in regular use today with a small but active congregation. There are many clubs and organisations to join, as well as fitness classes to attend.

Shepreth also benefits from its own railway station, with regular services to both Cambridge and London, and there is a wide range of amenities, including recreation grounds, a village hall which is available for hire, and schools and doctor's surgeries in neighbouring villages.

Since Royston is also very close, residents have access to the many other amenities the town has to offer, such as the leisure centre, sports clubs, dentist's surgeries, and highly-regarded schools for all ages. The A1M and M11 are within a 20-minute drive via the A10/A505, and London Stansted and Luton Airports are both 30-minutes away.

To truly appreciate what this lovely village has to offer, we invite all potential buyers to visit and explore the local area. You won't be disappointed!
