Description

Nestled in the highly sought-after village of Melbourn, this beautifully presented double-fronted four-bedroom detached family home combines modern living with village charm. Sat back on a private row of houses, with a green to the front, this home is perfect for growing families or professionals seeking space and convenience, the property is ideally located within walking distance of local amenities and good schools, while the nearby Meldreth Train Station offers swift links to both London and Cambridge.

From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a large and welcoming entrance hall that sets the tone for the generous proportions found throughout. The heart of the home features a spacious living room, complete with French doors opening out to the private rear garden—ideal for indoor-outdoor living.

The well-appointed kitchen offers a perfect blend of style and practicality, boasting high-spec integrated appliances, including a Neff oven and hob and a Hotpoint dishwasher, alongside ample worktop space, storage, and room for a breakfast table. A separate utility room provides additional convenience, whilst the downstairs is completed by a formal dining room, ideal for entertaining, and a handy W/C.

Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to three generously sized double bedrooms and one good-sized single bedroom, all with built-in storage. The main bedroom benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, while a modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

The private rear garden is designed for low-maintenance living and entertaining, offering a large patio seating area, side space for a shed, and a pergola retreat tucked behind the garage—perfect for summer evenings. The garage itself has been converted into a home gym, complete with full power, lighting, and electric roller doors. To the front, the property features a driveway for three cars and a neat front garden area, completing the picture of an elegant and functional family home.

  • Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
  • Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
