An exceptional opportunity awaits you to acquire a pair of charming Grade II
listed period cottages that have been opened up into one cottage, nestled side
by side and brimming with character. These cottages exude a rich historical
ambience, boasting original features such as exposed beams, timbers, and
inviting Inglenook fireplaces. Placed prominently at the heart of the highly
desirable village of Balsham in South Cambridgeshire, this is a rare find.
Balsham itself offers a wealth of local amenities, all conveniently within a
short stroll from the cottages. You'll find a primary school, post office,
butchers, a picturesque church, two inviting inns, and a recreation ground
with a bowls club and play area in close proximity. Moreover, this village
enjoys a strategic location, with Cambridge, Saffron Walden, and Newmarket all
equidistant at approximately 10 miles away. Should you require more extensive
shopping and schooling options, the nearby village of Linton is readily
accessible. For commuters, the convenience continues. There's a train service
to London available via Whittlesford or Audley End, and you'll have easy
access to the M11 motorway, with junctions at Duxford (Junction 10) and Stump
Cross (Junction 9). This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of history and
embrace the quintessential charm of village life with modern conveniences at
your doorstep. Please note the property is in a conservation area and there is
a right of way for no 5 at the back of the property.
Balsham has many local clubs and societies including a baby & toddler Group,
bridge club, brownies, cubs and scouts, sewing group, football and cricket
clubs, yoga, a Horticultural Society and a Choral Society – the Balsham
singers. Balsham Feast is held every two years at the recreation ground with
stalls, activities, dog shows, donkey rides and evening entertainment.
Schooling is provided by the Meadow Primary School, rated good by Ofsted, with
secondary schooling at the neighbouring Linton Village College. Students can
then progress to various sixth forms which are in the catchment area to Linton
Village College, including Long Road and Hills Road in Cambridge.
