About
Occupying a wider plot within Abbey Homes' Poppyfields development, 9 Trout Beck is a substantial four-bedroom detached family home extending to approximately 1,700 sq ft , offering a level of space and flexibility that sets it apart from many modern properties of its type.
The house is brand new, has never been occupied and is ready for immediate occupation , with the further advantage of no onward chain The ground floor is particularly impressive and has clearly been designed around family life.
A spacious entrance hall gives an immediate sense of the size of the property and includes a large coat cupboard and ground-floor cloakroom.
There are three distinct living areas , allowing plenty of flexibility for day-to-day family life, entertaining and home working.
The main sitting room is a particularly generous space, with a large box bay window providing excellent natural light , together with doors opening directly onto the rear garden.
At the heart of the house is the open-plan kitchen and dining room , providing plenty of space for a full-size dining table and incorporating fitted kitchen appliances.
Alongside this is a separate family room , again with doors opening onto the garden. This additional reception room would work equally well as a children's room, snug or informal sitting room.
Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress.
The principal bedroom forms a proper suite, with a separate dressing room and private en suite shower room The dressing room itself provides useful additional flexibility and, subject to any necessary alterations and consents, could potentially be adapted to provide a dedicated home office.
Bedroom two also benefits from its own en suite , making it ideal for older children or guests.
There are two further bedrooms together with a separate family bathroom, while a large airing cupboard on the landing provides valuable additional storage.
Outside, the rear garden has a split-level design , with patio and lawned areas connected by steps and planting, creating a more interesting and established feel than a conventional flat new-build garden.
The double garage is positioned to the side/rear of the property and can also be accessed from the garden, while the driveway provides parking for two cars.
There is also gated pedestrian access to the rear garden.
The property has an EPC rating of B , with an energy-efficiency score of 85, reflecting the high-performance glazing, insulation and modern heating controls incorporated within the house.
Situated within the popular village of Linton, the property combines the convenience of a brand-new home with the space required for modern family life.
Linton itself provides a good range of everyday amenities, schooling and transport connections, while Cambridge, Saffron Walden and Haverhill are all readily accessible.
Local amenities include Linton Village College, Linton Heights Junior School, the village Co-op and community sports facilities.
For buyers looking for a substantial four-bedroom family home without the wait, uncertainty or onward chain normally associated with a move , this property represents an opportunity to purchase a newly completed house that is ready to move straight into.
