Description:
Aspen House is idyllically positioned, flawlessly designed and boasts grandeur and size in abundance. Measuring in excess of 7,000 sq.ft of accommodation and boasting perhaps the best village setting surrounding Cambridge. Unsurprisingly, the property is award-winning having won the UK single unit development of the year in 2017 having been constructed by Fairfield Home. The leisure suite is simply incredible giving the property a unique aspect that very few residential properties can offer. Externally boasting impeccably landscaped gardens, a large sweeping driveway and an integral double garage.
Entering into the initial part of the entrance hall, that then opens up the luxurious and light inner hall. The ground floor enjoys an impressive five reception rooms comprising a dining room, sitting room, family room, study and orangery. The kitchen/breakfast room is incredibly impressive with a partially vaulted ceiling and bi-folding doors opening to the sheltered rear garden terrace. The bespoke kitchen offers ample units and drawers with stone worktops over and an inset double sink. The integrated appliances include a dishwasher, wine cooler, fridge and freezer. The remaining ground floor offers a cloakroom, utility room, kitchenette and shower room.
The first floor boasts space in abundance with four bedrooms in total, all of which offering en-suites with two enjoying dressing rooms. The remaining first floor enjoys a large and particularly grand landing and a further bathroom.
On the second floor is a deceptively spacious with a large room, currently utilised as a dressing room, with a landing and store room.
Outside:
The property enjoys a wonderful approach off Kings Mill Lane entering onto the large paved driveway providing ample parking and access to the integral double garage. The driveway has a lawned island with a mature beech tree. The remaining front aspect enjoys high level hedging and some smaller decorative shrubs. The south-easterly facing rear garden is predominately lawned with an extensively paved main terrace, a sheltered seating area and flanking pathways leading to the leisure suite. The flowers beds are boastfully planted with established shrubs, plants and trees.
Leisure Suite:
A truly exceptional structure offering a rarity that very few properties do. Consisting of a gym, treatment room, games room, swimming pool, jacuzzi, kitchen and bathroom, this is an addition to a property that already offers so much. Beside the leisure suite is a small rubber surfaced area ideal for various sports. A space that captivates the word ‘Luxurious’ and is an incredible asset to the property as a whole.
Location:
Aspen House occupies an impressive and unrivalled plot on this private, residential no-through road which is broadly recognised as one of the best addresses in Great Shelford within walking distance of many of the varied amenities this popular village has to offer. These amenities include doctors’ and dentist’s surgeries, a primary school, chemist, several convenience stores, a butchers’ and bakers, public houses, a delicatessen, café, library and post office. In addition, there is a garden centre and Waitrose supermarket just a few minutes away. For the commuter there is excellent access to a railway station (to London’s Liverpool Street) along with cycle routes into the city and very good road access to major networks. Addenbrooke’s Hospital is close by which will soon be the site for the new Cambridge South railway station (into London’s Kings Cross). Great Shelford is in the catchment area for Sawston Village College along with a wide range of private schools in Cambridge itself.

The next steps...
1
Establish funds
How will you fund the purchase?
Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.
Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.
To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.
They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.
However advantages of working with your bank are:
You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
