## Description

The Old Orchard is situated in a highly sought-after, prestigious village in South Cambridgeshire, nestled on a private road. Since its acquisition in 2019, the current owners have undertaken a comprehensive renovation, completely remodelling the property with side and rear extensions, high-quality fixtures, rewiring, and a new boiler, creating a flawless, modern family home.

Approaching the property via a private drive, it is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. Upon entry, you are greeted by a spacious reception hall with original parquet flooring, a customised trendy clothes cupboard with a floating console table and LED lights around the full-length mirror, additional coat hooks, a wall-mounted storage bench and a custom-made oak staircase leading to the first floor. The staircase features integrated LED lighting under the handrail, which can be controlled for brightness and on/off functionality from either the upstairs or downstairs switches.

A true standout of this home is the stunning open-plan kitchen, a perfect blend of modern design and functionality. The kitchen is equipped with plenty of storage space and underfloor heating, and expansive bifold doors open onto the rear garden, flooding the space with natural light. These bifold doors are fitted with an electric enclosed blind system, remotely controlled and fully automated to open at sunrise and close at dusk, offering both privacy and convenience.

The kitchen is designed with luxury in mind, featuring premium Dekton worktops and ample eye and base-level storage. High-end appliances include a Bora induction hob with a built-in extractor, alongside Gaggenau appliances: a steam oven, an electric oven with a dedicated pizza stone and heating element, and a microwave and two Gaggenau warming drawers. Additional luxury features include a Miele full-height fridge and freezer, a dishwasher, and a wine cooler. For practicality, there is a double sink, and a separate drinking water system with both hot and cold water. Three oversized Velux windows with built-in shades can be electronically controlled to open and close.

Adjoining the kitchen is a highly functional utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, a large single sink, a dog wash sink and shower for smaller pets, as well as fully fitted wall cupboards. The utility room also houses the airing cupboard,  hot water tank, gas boiler, electrical consumer unit, and solar control cupboard. The side door has a smart dog/cat flap with IRF sensor to the side entrance and bin shed.

The spacious triple-aspect sitting room, extended to the rear, is bathed in natural light through large windows. A striking Cosmic Black Granite-clad fireplace serves as a focal point, featuring an ultra-slim flat-screen TV and surround sound system mounted above an electric fireplace. This setup may be included in the sale, subject to agreement. The electric fire below the TV offers customizable flame colors, adding warmth and ambiance. Bi-fold doors seamlessly connect the room to the rear garden. 

The ground floor also features a versatile fifth bedroom that can be used as a playroom, as well as a stylish cloakroom with a wall-mounted toilet cistern, and a floating oak vanity with a Villeroy & Boch countertop basin.  

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms. Bedroom two benefits from an ensuite shower room. The magnificent master bedroom is a true retreat with vaulted ceilings, Velux windows, and a stunning ensuite bathroom with a large round spa bath by Duravit, separate shower, and Villeroy & Boch double sinks. The master also boasts a custom-made walk-in wardrobe with zone-controlled LED lighting and a mirror. 

The first floor is completed by a lovely family bathroom, featuring a spa bath and walk-in shower. All of the toilets in the house are made by Villeroy & Boch and wall-mounted with Geberit cisterns. All of the bathrooms and cloakroom are equipped with electric underfloor heating. 

Externally, the property offers an expansive driveway leading to a double garage with electric up and over door, providing ample parking for up to 5 cars. Located behind the garage is a large purposely built bike and garden shed, with electric power and lighting. The front garden is laid to lawn and wraps around to the side garden, where two mature apple trees stand. On the right-hand side, a gated access leads to a porcelain-tile-laid patio area with bin storage and a BBQ area.

The rear garden is generously sized, laid to lawn, and bordered by mature trees and hedging. Adjacent to the garden is a private woodland, ensuring complete privacy and tranquillity.

The property is equipped with a professional-grade Wi-Fi system, featuring five Ubiquiti Unifi access points, offering fast and reliable internet throughout. The current service provider is TalkTalk, providing stable speeds of 70Mbps download and 25Mbps upload. There are 22 roof mounted solar panels included in the property sale (East and south facing). 

Hauxton is a popular, historic South Cambridgeshire Village, located just four miles from the centre of Cambridge and within easy reach of the A10, M11 and the park and ride. The village has a range of amenities including a recreation ground with modern play equipment, sports pitches, an organic health shop, gym, ancient parish church, and a well-regarded primary school that goes on to feed either Melbourn or Sawston Village Colleges, with bus services to both. There is also a well stocked convenience store which is open seven days a week and a hair salon within the flats development opposite, both of which are open to the general public.

There are more comprehensive facilities, as well as a station providing services into London Liverpool Street, in the neighbouring village of Great Shelford.

There are good cycle routes to Cambridge, including a newly opened cycleway across to Trumpington Park and Ride and on to the Guided Busway cycle route into the city, plus a regular bus service to Addenbrooke's and into the city.

- **Rent ratio:** 0.25% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £350,000
- **Target investor price (1%):** £280,000

*Monthly rent ÷ price. 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak. Max investor price = rent ÷ 0.8% (Stoke-style target). Target investor price = rent ÷ 1% (strong cashflow band). Based on OpenRent comparables.*

- **Monthly cashflow:** £-1,837/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -6.9%

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
