Cottage
Superb opportunity to acquire this part-thatched cottage with an abundance of character requiring further renovation. Situated on a large plot set back from the road, and surrounded by mature trees and borders in an idyllic location with views of Kings Ripton Church.
Approached via a driveway setting the cottage back from the road, with parking for several cars and double garage.
The cottage comprises a good size kitchen leading to two reception rooms; the reception room within the original thatched section of the house boasts beamed ceiling and walls with central brick feature fireplace. There is also a further utility room. The sun lounge to the rear overlooks the good-sized mature garden in this tranquil village setting.
There are two staircases to the first floor. The first staircase leads to three bedrooms and shower room, and the rear staircase leads to a further bedroom with beams and bathroom off.
This property does require updating and renovation with fantastic potential to provide a superb family home.
Kings Ripton is a picturesque village listed in the Domesday Book. There are quaint cottages and half-timbered houses. The property itself has views of St Peters Church and nearby thatched cottages. Whilst Kings Ripton enjoys a tranquil location, it has good access to the A14 and A1 with connections to the wider road network. Huntingdon is 3 and a half miles away with many shops and eateries along with mainline railway with access to London within the hour. Cambridge is 19 miles and Peterborough 20 miles.
