Full Details for 7 Bedroom Detached for sale in Huntingdon, PE28 :
A fascinating and unique late 1930s built 7 bedroom residence standing in a delightful, secluded, edge-of-village setting, well detached and removed from any neighbours, in its own private and secluded grounds and gardens which amount to around 2 ½ acres. The property is entered by its 250 yard long tree lined driveway in glorious surrounding countryside and pastureland, up to the house front where there is almost unlimited turning and parking space. The house itself offers a considerable amount of accommodation approaching 4000 sq.ft.; the principal reception room measures a splendid 3110x174 and there is, from every window, a wonderful outlook onto either the formal gardens, the adjacent woodland areas or through a belt of trees towards meadowland beyond. This is an important and notable property whose architects were Dyson and Hebeler of Cambridge, with the design work under William (Bill) Parker Dyson and, for those who are aware of these things, this explains its Grade II listing as a property of considerable interest and a fine example of the Modernist Movement of architecture of the time. AGENTS NOTE: 13 photographs displaying the property in its mint condition are shown on the Royal Institute of Architects website (go to www.ribapix.com and search for Dyson & Hebeler). In fairness, the property now requires some renovation and updating to restore it to an up-to-date condition, but for the right buyer, this will be a delightful home in which to live and be happy, and indeed, a property of much greater future material value and therefore represents an excellent investment. Geographically, the property is well placed for good road access to St Neots railway station, the A1, M11, Cambridge, Stansted and Luton airports, the M25 & Heathrow/ Gatwick airports also.
