This delightful period cottage sits in a quiet spot within the sought after village of Fen Ditton. The property occupies a generous and mature plot with a sunny westerly aspect, overlooking the river Cam. Inside, the accommodation is well-proportioned and large windows provide a good supply of natural light. The sitting room and a separate dining room, sit either side of an impressive brick-built inglenook fireplace, creating a versatile and practical entertaining space. At the rear, overlooking the garden, there is a small snug/study, a kitchen breakfast room, and a useful utility with W.C. beyond.

Upstairs a bright and airy landing provides access to two double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The larger of the two bedrooms is a particularly generous double with a dual aspect providing an abundance of natural light. Built into the landing / hallway between the two bedrooms is a full wall of wardrobe storage.

The driveway is suitable for parking two vehicles and provides access to a detached double garage. The rear garden has been beautifully stocked, with landscaping as you would expect to find in a country, cottage garden. Immediately adjacent to the kitchen is a large, paved terrace. The terrace sits above the garden and provides a pleasant outlook toward the river and over the garden and meadow beyond.

Fen Ditton lies on the east bank of the River Cam, on the road from Cambridge to Clayhithe, close to junction 34 of the A14 (access to and from the west only), about 4 miles from the city centre. The village has a thriving local community with a primary school, three public houses and a cricket club. It is often associated with ‘The Bumps’, the annual rowing races held on the river.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.

Once you’ve found a property you want to buy, it’s time to make an offer. A bit of negotiation is to be expected, however don't offer so little that you end up in a lengthy negotiation process, as you might lose the property altogether if someone else makes a higher bid.

If other offers have been made on a property we aren't legally able to tell you what they are, but we may indicate if they were close to the asking price.
