3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Orchard Terrace, Whittlesford CB22

A charming three-bedroom period home tucked away in the heart of the sought-after village of Whittlesford. With no onward chain.

Approaching the property, you're greeted by a gravel driveway providing off-road parking, mature planting and an attractive pink rendered façade that immediately hints at the character waiting inside.

Stepping through the front door, you arrive in what is undoubtedly the heart of the home. The sitting room is an impressively proportioned living space, filled with natural light and packed with original features. Exposed timbers, a substantial brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove and views through to the dining room all combine to create a wonderfully welcoming room that's equally suited to cosy winter evenings or entertaining friends and family. French doors open off the sitting room onto the garden, drawing the outside in.

The open connection through to the dining room creates an excellent sense of flow, giving plenty of flexibility for everyday family life while still allowing each space to retain its own identity.

From here we move into the kitchen. Overlooking the conservatory and garden beyond, it offers generous worktop space, ample storage and room for everyday cooking while remaining connected to the rest of the house.

The adjoining conservatory provides another lovely reception area. Bathed in natural light throughout the day, it's the perfect spot for a morning coffee, a quiet read or simply enjoying views across the beautifully established rear garden in every season.

Beyond the kitchen is a practical utility with its own external access and offers ample storage, keeping laundry and day-to-day household tasks neatly separate from the main living accommodation. The ground floor is completed by a family bathroom.

Heading upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms and two storage cupboards in the hallway.

The principal bedroom is particularly generous, stretching over sixteen feet in length and benefits from an en-suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe, giving a calm and peaceful atmosphere.

Bedrooms two and three are both comfortable with fitted double wardrobes, making them ideal as children's rooms, guest accommodation or home office space depending on your needs.

Returning downstairs, the conservatory opens onto a spacious secluded patio area which leads into the beautiful mature garden which is a real highlight of the property. Beautifully established with well-stocked borders, mature apple, pear and plum trees, and an expansive lawn, it offers an exceptional amount of outdoor space. Whether entertaining on a summer's evening, gardening or simply relaxing in the sunshine, this is a garden that feels wonderfully private and peaceful. Detached garage/outbuilding in need of repair.

The setting is equally appealing. Orchard Terrace enjoys a tucked-away position within Whittlesford, one of South Cambridgeshire's most desirable villages, offering an excellent range of local amenities, beautiful countryside walks and a mainline railway station providing fast connections into Cambridge and London.

Full of character, offering over 1,440 square feet of accommodation and occupying a generous plot, Orchard Terrace presents a rare opportunity to acquire a charming village home with fantastic potential to make it your own.

Whittlesford is a sought-after historic village, ideally placed for both Cambridge and London commuters. Junction 9 of the M11 is about a mile away, and Whittlesford Parkway railway station (on the edge of the village) provides regular services to Cambridge (approx. 15 minutes) and London Liverpool Street (just over an hour).

The village offers a strong community and excellent facilities, including a post office and shop, several popular pubs and restaurants, local sports clubs, and an ofsted-rated ‘Good’ primary school that feeds into Sawston Village College, also rated ‘Good.’
