Seller Insight
The ground floor's highlight is an expansive open space combining kitchen, dining, and sitting areas – a perfect blend for both entertaining and accommodating a busy family life. Bifold doors seamlessly connect the west-facing garden, and an oversized skylight floods the area with natural light. The sitting area, featuring an open fire for cosy winter evenings, is complemented by two additional reception rooms, including a vaulted family room with a galleried landing. ‘The layout has been brilliant for our family; it’s given us plenty of space to be social while offering us quiet areas to work or study. In fact, it’s so perfect that we are basing the design of our new house on the floorplan,’ say the owners.

The ground floor's versatility is enhanced by a bedroom, family room, shower room, utility, study, and office, with adjacent boot room. ‘This layout allows great flexibility and offers the opportunity to create a fifth bedroom and en suite should it be required.’ Half of the double garage has been converted into a very useful home gym. ‘Beautiful views down the rear garden and beyond to open countryside connect the property to nature – we frequently see owls hunting and deer grazing in the field.’ the owners add.

‘We fell in love with this house at first sight and wouldn’t be moving had we not been presented with the opportunity to build our own home.’

‘One of the reasons we moved here was to be in the catchment for the excellent Comberton Village College. With a lovely warm village community and a fantastic primary school, with wraparound care, a safe walkable distance away, it’s been a great home in which to bring up our children. Great Gransden offers a nearby pub, church, village hall, sports facilities, and a shop and post office. However, we are just minutes away from several towns, the splendour of Cambridge, railway stations, and good road networks. It’s a very commutable location to base oneself.’
