Pipers Close, Fowlmere

Property Insight
Set back behind its own frontage on a quiet Fowlmere through road, this three-bedroom semi-detached house offers a genuine blank canvas in one of South Cambridgeshire's most sought-after villages. The accommodation runs to around 929 sq ft across two floors, with a garage alongside, and while the property is dated throughout it has been well kept and is ready for a new owner to modernise to their own taste. A good-size plot, a long rear garden and clear scope to extend (STPP) make it a strong first purchase or renovation project, and it is offered with No Upward Chain.
The heart of the ground floor is a large through lounge and dining room running the full depth of the house, dual aspect with a window to the front and sliding doors opening to the garden, with a feature fireplace and ample room for both seating and a full dining table. The kitchen sits off the hall with fitted with older units and space for freestanding appliances, though the layout gives plenty of scope to create a proper family kitchen. Beyond it, a separate utility room adds further storage and workspace, and a ground-floor WC completes the floor.
Upstairs the property offers three bedrooms — two comfortable doubles and a single ideal as a child's room, home office or nursery — served by a family bathroom with a bath. Outside is where the property really comes into its own: a long, mature rear garden backs directly onto trees and greenery, giving a private, established outlook and generous space to landscape. To the front, a driveway provides off-street parking alongside the garage. A rare chance to add value in one of the area's most desirable villages, and one that warrants an early viewing.

Location – Fowlmere
Fowlmere is one of the southernmost villages in Cambridgeshire, on the edge of Hertfordshire, 6 miles from Royston and under 10 miles from central Cambridge — around ten and twenty minutes' drive respectively. It is surrounded by beautiful countryside while remaining within easy reach of both town and city. Within the village there are several village greens and playgrounds, a village hall with tennis courts, a village church, a playgroup, private nursery and primary school, a number of village groups, and The Chequers, a well-regarded village pub and restaurant. On the outskirts is the Fowlmere RSPB nature reserve. Royston's mainline station runs direct to London Kings Cross in as little as 38 minutes, with further options from neighbouring Meldreth and Foxton. The M11 is within a 10-minute drive, the A1 around 25 minutes, and Stansted and Luton airports are both half an hour to forty minutes away.
