Hardwick is a very popular village sitting just off of the A428, between the city of Cambridge and Cambourne. Cambridge city centre is under 8 miles away and is an easy drive or a short ride on the regular Number 4 bus. The village has a good primary school, village shop, pub and recreation ground. The property is also in the catchment for Comberton Village College.
This 4 bedroom semi-detached house has been extended and now offers over 1500sq ft of living accommodation. Of particular note is the large, open plan living space which leads onto the extended kitchen/breakfast room (re-fitted in 2022) and then onto a useful utility area and shower room. On the first floor there are four bedrooms (the main bedroom having an en suite shower room) and a family bathroom.
Externally, the property has an open plan front garden area and a recently re-landscaped and enclosed rear garden with lawn and patio area. The garage has been converted to a comfortable home office with high speed ethernet connection and a storage room with parking to front.
