There is a useful cupboard in the hallway, a bright, modern bathroom, double bedroom with fitted wardrobe storage and a dual-aspect, open plan living space which opens to a small private balcony. The living room is bright with space for sitting and dining and the kitchen area is fitted with a range of cabinets and has a built in oven and hob with extractor over and an integrated washing machine, dishwasher and fridge/freezer.

Great Shelford is one of the most sought-after villages south of the City thanks to its easy access to town and Addenbrooke's by road, regular buses, car-free purpose built cycleways and train from its mainline railway station that also goes direct to London Liverpool Street.
The historic village centre has excellent day-to-day facilities including two small supermarkets, a convenience store, a deli, hairdressers, doctors, dentist, dispensing chemist, two pubs, restaurants and more. The primary school is very well regarded and there are various community facilities and social clubs. The large recreation ground has a new pavilion, tennis club and sports pitches and annually hosts the excellent Shelford Feast festival.
It is a great community for those looking for a balance of convenience and traditional village feel and offers the real possibility of living day-to-day without the need to regularly drive out of the village
