Station Road, Foxton

A charming Grade II Listed cottage of considerable age and character, understood to be among the oldest in the village, set within established gardens and complemented by a substantial cartlodge/workshop with attic space above. The property offers a rare combination of period features, with practical living spaces, likely to appeal to buyers seeking an architecturally interesting home, with pretty cottage gardens, a cartlodge, and off road parking.

The house is arranged over two floors and retains a strong sense of its origins, with exposed timbers, brickwork, and uneven lines that reflect its history. The principal reception spaces are well-proportioned and distinct, with a sitting room centred around an open fireplace and a separate dining room. The kitchen is fitted with high quality bespoke cabinetry and is both functional and characterful, with an Aga and direct outlook to the garden. A ground floor bedroom and bathroom provide flexibility, whether for guests, single-level living, or study use. The principal bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation and is beautifully fitted with a modern suite.

Upstairs are three further bedrooms and a WC. The rooms vary in shape and ceiling height, as expected for a building of this age, but offer comfortable accommodation with exposed structural elements that give each space a clear identity.

The outbuilding is a particularly valuable addition, comprising a car barn and workshop with a substantial attic above. This upper space offers clear potential for conversion, subject to the usual consents, and may suit those seeking a studio, workspace or ancillary accommodation separate from the main house.

The village will appeal to those prioritising a quieter pace of life while remaining within reach of Cambridge or London. Day-to-day needs are typically met locally, with broader amenities, schooling, and commuter links accessible in the surrounding area.
