PROPERTY SUMMARY The Collection by Harvey Robinson are thrilled to present for sale this impressive, four-bedroom detached family home, located in the heart of the ever-popular village of Colne in Cambridgeshire. Individually designed and constructed in 1984 by a local builder and having just two owners since new, Woodstock offers over 3000sqft of spacious living and sleeping accommodation spread over two floors, perfect for a long-term home for a growing family.
Stepping inside the property, you are greeted by the entrance hall, which leads to an impressive 25ftx13ft (approx.) dual-aspect lounge complete with a living flame gas fire, a bay window to the front, and double patio doors out to the garden. From the entrance hall, you can also access the 13ftx14ft (approx.) family dining room, which leads into a stunning 30ft long kitchen breakfast room fitted with neutral grey wall and floor units, and a cohesive wood countertop to match the flooring. Here you can enjoy the late morning sun as it beams through the kitchen patio doors, which have been thoughtfully chosen by the owners to maximise the amount of sunlight the kitchen receives. A short walk takes to you to the extended family room with beautiful high ceilings, Velux windows, and panoramic views of the garden. To complete the kitchen area there is also an enclosed utility area, again fitted in floor-to-ceiling grey units and wood countertops. Finishing the ground floor accommodation is a neutrally-presented downstairs cloakroom, and a 9ftx9ft (approx.) standalone study.
Upstairs, Woodstock boasts a generous four double bedrooms, two of which have adjoining en suites. From the bright and airy galleried landing you can access the principal bedroom, which includes integrated wardrobes and overhead storage, as well as a four-piece en suite bathroom. The second bedroom also benefits from an en suite, this time a three-piece suite with walk-in shower, as well as eaves storage and a built-in wardrobe. Bedrooms three and four are also generous double rooms both with built-in wardrobes. Completing the first floor, there is also a spacious three-piece family bathroom.
Outside, the property sits on approximately one third of an acre, with ample off-road parking to the front as well as a lawned section setting the property back from the road. A detached double garage also sits on the plot, with ample storage space or space for two vehicles, as well as power and lighting. Upstairs there is further storage room which is currently set up as a playroom but would be perfect as a home office space.
To the rear there is a south-east facing garden with a great degree of privacy, perfect for making the most of the extensive solar panels that are in situ on the roof and would be inherited by the new owner, as well as a patio area with space for a garden furniture set. To truly appreciate the vast amount of accommodation on offer, contact the St Ives office to arrange a viewing.
