101, High Street, Great Abington, CB21 6AE

Located in the heart of the village, Corner Thatch is a charming, characterful home with a five-bar gate to the side, opening onto a gravel driveway that leads through to a detached double garage at the rear.

The plot extends to approximately 0.14 acres (592 sq.

Metres), with established, mature gardens that wrap around the property, partly enclosed by traditional walling and offering a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion.

Stepping through the front door, you arrive into a hallway, where the age and charm of the home are immediately apparent, with exposed beams adding warmth and texture.

A conveniently placed ground floor WC sits just off the hall.

To the left-hand side, the house opens into a generous dining room, a well-proportioned space ideal for entertaining, with a natural flow through into the adjoining sitting room.

This is a particularly atmospheric room, centred around an impressive inglenook fireplace, creating a cosy focal point and reinforcing the cottage’s period character.

The dual-aspect layout allows for plenty of natural light, while the proportions offer flexibility for both relaxation and hosting.

Moving back through the hallway, a ground-floor bedroom (Bedroom 4) provides versatility, perfect as a guest room, study, or snug.

Beyond this, the home transitions into the kitchen/breakfast room, a functional space overlooking the gardens to the side of the property, with scope for reconfiguration or modernisation.

From here, access is provided to a rear lobby and utility room, offering practical day-to-day convenience and access out to the garden.

Upstairs, the first floor landing connects three further bedrooms.

The principal Bedroom 1 is a spacious double, enjoying a dual aspect and a range of fitted wardrobes, while Bedrooms 2 and 3 provide additional accommodation, ideal for family, guests, or home working.

A centrally located family bathroom serves all rooms on this floor.

Outside, the pretty and established gardens are a standout feature, thoughtfully enclosed in part by traditional walls, creating distinct areas for planting, relaxation, and outdoor dining.

The gravel driveway and detached double garage provide ample parking and storage, completing the practical elements of the home.

Overall, Corner Thatch presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home rich in character and charm, now ready for general updating, with the potential to extend (STP), allowing the next owner to sensitively enhance and personalise the space while preserving its inherent period appeal.
