Three Bedroom Cottage
Additional Two Bedroom Annexe
Twelve Minutes to Station
Approximately Fifth of an Acre


A stunning Grade II listed three bedroom cottage, dating back to around 1640 and set within beautiful and mature and private grounds. \"We have spent fifteen wonderful years at Pond Cottage raising our family through to adulthood and latterly having tenants in the annexe. Living under thatch is warm in winter, cool in summer and has a real charm with a sense of history. When the light fades the lounge comes into its own with its inglenook fireplace and multi fuel stove. The pond opposite the house is another attraction and we've enjoyed watching the ducks and moorhens raising a new brood each spring. The nearby woods and variety of walking circuits straight from the front door make it a outdoor lovers paradise.\" Pond Cottage and Woodpeckers is a place to create a wonderful home where cherished memories are made.

What the Sellers Say \"We have spent fifteen wonderful years at Pond Cottage raising our family through to adulthood and latterly having tenants in the annexe. When moving from Godmanchester we sought somewhere with quick, easy access to Huntingdon, London, Cambridge and Peterborough, but rural and quiet, away from the noise of the A14 and A1(M). Few villages in the area offer this combination, but Wennington fits the bill. Our teenagers loved living in Woodpecker Cottage (the annexe) enjoying the independence it offers with the proximity of help on hand in the main house if needed. After they left home we used the annexe as offices for some years and in more recent years we have secured some additional income by renting it out, with no adverse effect on our privacy or quality of life. We have loved our years at Pond and woodpecker Cottages and shall cherish these memories forever.\"
