Property description
SWAN SONG - This wonderful light and spacious home sits on the edge of the North Cambridgeshire and Norfolk border in open fenland, an area rich in farming history, and offers a lifestyle in touch with the changing seasons and the natural world. The well-designed modern house is of a slick and streamline nature with beautiful oak herringbone parquet flooring throughout much of the downstairs complimented by areas of exposed reclaimed brick, and screams quality and contemporary style as soon as you step inside.The kitchen and dining room form a huge space for family eating and socialising, contrasting with the calm, relaxing living room with a feature brick fireplace and lovely hot log burner, perfect for winter evenings. These two spaces are linked by a dramatic entrance hall, with two-storey high barn-style windows letting light flood in and offering views for miles over the open countryside. Upstairs is a large, versatile landing providing a spacious office/study for home workers (with the same breathtaking views), or the option for an additional sitting area or open-plan fourth bedroom.Outside there are many additional benefits to the property: there is a five-bay oak cart shed with power and light which would suit a whole range of uses; a double garage (with potential to convert to additional accommodation subject to planning); a separate boiler and boot room with potential to use as workshop; a polytunnel frame with overhead irrigation system; ample room to build stables next to the polytunnel (subject to planning); a gravel drive with space to park multiple vehicles including larger vehicles such as a horsebox; and a 9000-litre fish pond in the front garden. \"Sweet smells and sounds of summer - ripening strawberries blush pink reflect a magenta sky, shimmering blankets of barley, the skylark's song up high. Then orange Autumnal stratospheres mirror swelling pumpkin spheres destined to the sharp cut of steel for children's antics or festive meal. And through mystical Fenland mists thick above, an arrowhead of swans, Whooper or Bewick, en route to or from some Arctic clime, this rural landscape unique and sublime.\"
