Beautifully presented family home with open views in village location
West Point sits elevated from the road on a generous plot, offering a high level of privacy whilst offering beautiful views across the open countryside. You are well positioned for access back in to the village to take advantage of the wealth of amenities in the village, as well access to good transport links to the south and London and Cambridge.
The property is approached via an attractive pillared entrance, opening into a welcoming reception hall with a graceful staircase rising to the first floor. A cloakroom is conveniently positioned off the hallway, together with access to a cellar beneath the stairs. A particular highlight is the impressive drawing room, extending from front to back and benefitting from an abundance of natural light through triple-aspect hardwood sash windows. A stone fireplace with slate hearth and wood-burning stove forms a striking focal point. The formal dining room is equally charming, with a sash window and French doors opening onto the rear terrace. The kitchen/breakfast room is thoughtfully designed, featuring bespoke cabinetry, stone work surfaces and a classic Aga set within a chimney breast. A window seat provides an attractive vantage point over the garden, while stable doors open to an entertaining area outside. French doors lead through to a superb orangery, where a vaulted ceiling, extensive glazing and garden views create a wonderfully light and airy space. The adjoining family room offers additional versatility, with direct garden access via French doors. A generous side lobby provides access to outbuildings and an additional cloakroom to complete the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor landing is bright and spacious, enhanced by a picture window over the staircase. There are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, two with built-in storage, served by a shower room and a stylish family bathroom with freestanding bath and walk-in shower. The principal suite is situated separately and includes a further double bedroom or nursery, currently utilised as a study, with French doors opening onto a private balcony enjoying open views to the front. The principal bedroom itself features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, timber flooring and dual-aspect windows, together with a contemporary en suite shower room.
The property is set behind wrought iron electric gates, with a block-paved driveway providing ample parking and access to a garaging surmounted by an attractive clock tower. The approach is framed by, extensive manicured lawns, established planting and well-maintained hedging. The main garden is mature and private, offering a variety of seating areas suited to both entertaining and family use. A productive kitchen garden with raised beds is discreetly positioned. To the rear, additional access via Newnham Way provides further off-road parking and leads to a large timber garden store.
