About
Property Insight Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the popular South Cambridgeshire village of Bassingbourn, this detached chalet-style home has been well looked after and is ready to move straight into.
The painted brick and tile-hung elevations give it a distinctive character on its plot, set behind a shared driveway with a garage to the side and a generous lawned garden to the rear.
Arranged over two floors with two double bedrooms, flexible ground-floor living space and a conservatory overlooking the garden, it offers a comfortable and manageable home in a settled position with a pleasant outlook over the neighbouring cricket pitch and playing field.
Being offered with no upward chain, it is available for a straightforward and timely purchase.
A welcoming entrance hall with wood-effect flooring sets the tone, with the staircase rising ahead, a useful understairs storage cupboard, and the main rooms opening off to either side.
The kitchen is fitted with cream shaker-style units and solid timber worktops, with space for freestanding appliances, and opens through to the dining room via a peninsula - a sociable arrangement with room for a full table and a feature wall adding warmth.
The lounge is a bright, generous room with sliding patio doors leading into the conservatory, which runs along the rear, frames the garden through three sides of glass and gives direct access out to the lawn.
A ground-floor bathroom, fitted with a bath and shower over, completes the downstairs.
Upstairs, the layout makes the most of the chalet design, with two well-proportioned double bedrooms set beneath characterful sloping ceilings and useful access to eaves storage on either side of the house.
Both are comfortable doubles, with one benefiting from a wall of fitted wardrobes and a striking painted feature wall, and the other offering flexible space for freestanding furniture.
A modern shower room serves the first floor, finished with a corner cubicle and a heated towel rail.
Outside, the rear garden is a real asset - a good-size lawn bordered by established hedging, with a raised decked seating area and a timber shed to the far end.
To the front, a shared driveway provides off-road parking alongside the garage. A rare chance to move straight into a settled cul-de-sac position.

Location – Bassingbourn Bassingbourn is a pretty parish village in South Cambridgeshire, a couple of miles north of Royston and 14 miles from Cambridge.
The village has a network of 24 public rights of way extending over 13 miles, plus a further mile of permissive paths, giving ample opportunity for circular walks and linking the parish with Whaddon, Melbourn, Litlington and Abington Pigotts.
Facilities include a doctor's surgery, a dental surgery, a garage, sub-Post Office, coffee shop, chemist, hairdressers and general grocers, alongside two pubs: The Hoops, in a 17th-century building in the village, and The Belle at North End.
Bassingbourn Village College, Community Primary School and Pre-school sit on the edge of the village, providing education from the age of two and a half to school leaving age.
The Church of St Peter and St Paul is older than the Church of England itself.
Royston's mainline station offers fast services to Cambridge and London Kings Cross, with Meldreth a further option, and the A1M and M11 are within a 20-minute drive.
