Description:

An idyllically positioned, sizeable and beautifully presented detached converted chapel boasting endless character with over 2,900 sq.ft in the Cambridge village of Dullingham.

The accommodation comprises two large reception rooms, a study, inner hall, four double sized bedrooms and three bathrooms. Externally offering ample driveway parking, several outbuildings and beautifully presented mature grounds.

Ground Floor:

The vast and versatile ground floor offers two large and inviting reception rooms, that are effectively open to one another. The sitting room occupies the original chapel boasting a vaulted ceiling with a mezzanine platform and an inset woodburning stove. The kitchen/dining room forms the most recent extension with a stylishly fitted kitchen with a centralised island, ample dining space and floods of natural light from the several windows and French doors. The sizeable ground floor bedroom enjoys a pleasant south-facing aspect with French doors leading to the garden terrace and access to an en-suite. The remaining ground floor offers a further bedroom, inner hall, shower room and utility room.

First Floor:

The principle bedroom is vast and stunning with a balcony over-looking the south aspect of the garden. The en-suite is luxurious and the room has ample fitted storage. There is a further bedroom on the first floor.

Outside:

The established and uniformed grounds are a huge asset to the property with two driveways providing ample parking, three large outbuildings consisting of a double garage, triple garage and a sizeable workshop and a wrap-around garden offering endless character and charm.

The triple garage in particular presents significant development potential for either an attached extension to the property or a detached annexe or home office (subject to planning).

The gardens are predominately lawned with several seating areas, including a stable block that has been converted into an outside hosting space with a timber gazebo for further seating. The grounds are wonderfully decorated with an impressive and mature selection of shrubs, trees and plants throughout.

The next steps...

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.

If you have a property to sell, why not see how we can help you.
