Little Shelford is a highly desirable village in South Cambridgeshire, known for its excellent schools and picturesque setting. The property’s location on Whittlesford Road places it within easy reach of the village centre, with its amenities and the train station providing convenient access to Cambridge. The proximity to Great and Little Shelford Cofe Primary School, rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, adds significant value for families.

The property itself is a charming, characterful thatched cottage. While the images suggest it is well-maintained and presented, the traditional style and exposed beams indicate a period property that may require some ongoing upkeep. The kitchen and bathrooms appear modern and updated. The presence of a conservatory and a sizable garden adds to the property’s appeal.

The plot size is relatively modest for a detached property in this area, but the garden is well-maintained and offers a private outdoor space.

Considering the average price per square foot in the area is £519, and the property’s list price of £895,000 equates to approximately £457 per square foot, the asking price appears reasonable, especially given the property’s location, character, and condition. However, the lack of square footage data for comparable properties makes a precise price comparison difficult. The higher-priced nearby listings on Church Street suggest that the list price is not out of line with the market in this premium location.

Therefore, we give this property 8 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
