About
A beautifully restored late Victorian detached residence with landscaped gardens, exceptional parking and no onward chain.
Occupying a prominent position within the sought-after conservation area of Eaton Ford, this elegant four double bedroom detached home enjoys landscaped south-westerly facing gardens, extensive driveway parking for up to five vehicles, and is offered for sale with no onward chain.
Ideally located within walking distance of Riverside Park, the River Great Ouse, St Neots town centre and local amenities, the property combines period character with thoughtfully integrated modern conveniences.
Originally built in 1900 as the former Police House, the property has been sympathetically restored and refurbished to an exceptional standard.
Great care has been taken to preserve its Victorian character, with original internal doors, stripped pitch pine floorboards and period fireplaces sitting comfortably alongside contemporary upgrades.
These include acoustic double glazing, gas-fired radiator central heating with a replacement boiler installed in 2023, modern white sanitaryware and a well-appointed Shaker-style kitchen.
The property also offers scope for further extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions. The welcoming entrance hall leads to three versatile reception rooms.
The dual-aspect sitting room is a particularly impressive space, featuring a full-height window overlooking the rear garden, exposed pitch pine flooring and an elegant limestone fireplace with open grate and raised hearth.
The study, positioned at the front of the house, offers excellent flexibility and could equally serve as a ground floor bedroom if required.
The separate dining room enjoys views over the rear garden and retains further period charm with its shaped fireplace recess and exposed timber flooring.
The kitchen is fitted with an attractive range of solid maple Shaker-style cabinetry complemented by quality work surfaces and limestone tiled flooring, which continues seamlessly into the adjoining utility room.
There is space for a freestanding range cooker and American-style fridge/freezer, while the adjoining breakfast room provides an ideal everyday dining space with direct access to the garden.
The utility room offers matching cabinetry together with space and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher, leading through to a practical boot room.
Gardens and Outside The beautifully landscaped rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's finest features.
Enjoying a sunny south-westerly aspect, it has been carefully designed for both privacy and ease of maintenance, creating an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining and family life.
A generous paved terrace leads onto a shaped lawn bordered by mature shrubs, established planting and ornamental beds.
A purpose-built detached garden room provides excellent additional living space and incorporates a fully equipped home office with power and Ethernet connectivity, making it ideal for remote working.
Further benefits include an Elite greenhouse with toughened glass and a recently replaced polycarbonate roof.
The extensive driveway is secured by an impressive automated bespoke cantilever gate and features a fully automated 4.5-metre circular vehicle turntable, providing effortless manoeuvring and parking for up to five vehicles.
Situation The property occupies an enviable position within the highly regarded Eaton Ford Conservation Area.
