Newmarket is set in attractive countryside on the Suffolk/Cambridgeshire border and is world famous as the headquarters of British horseracing and Jockey Club Estates training centre with two racecourses. At the junction of the A11 and the A14, road access to all areas of the country is good. 

The market town of Bury St Edmunds (12 miles) and the University City of Cambridge (13 miles), which both have good rail and bus access from Newmarket, offer a wide range of additional shopping and entertainment amenities. The town itself has a wide range of shopping facilities. There is an independent preparatory school in the town and there are excellent schools in the area, particularly Cambridge. London and Stansted Airport are within easy reach by road or train.

Travelling West along the A14, exit at junction 39 toward Newmarket (B1506).  Continue along this road through the village of Kentford.  On reaching the traffic lights, turn left onto the A1304 to Newmarket.  At the roundabout take the third exit onto Fordham Road, then the second left onto Fred Archer Way/B1103.  Continue straight over the next roundabout and for a further half a mile on Exning Road where the property will be found on the right hand side.

Description
The property comprises a spacious and well proportioned three-bedroom house, that we believe originally dates from the early 20th century, set along Exning Road just a short distance to the north-west of the centre of Newmarket.

The property offers spacious and well proportioned accommodation that extends to just over 1,600 sq. ft (150 sqm) in all and comprises an entrance porch, entrance hall, sitting room with bay window and coal affect gas fire, dining room/study, 17’ kitchen/breakfast room, conservatory and cloakroom on the ground floor.  

On the first floor there are two good size double bedrooms, a third small double/single bedroom, a bathroom, separate shower room and box room.

Outside there is a driveway to the front of the property, that is sufficiently large enough to park up to three vehicles, together with a detached single garage.

At the rear there are two separate patio areas, that can be directly accessed from the kitchen/breakfast room and conservatory, together with a large garden, that is mainly laid to grass for ease of maintenance, but with a number of established trees that provide a good degree of privacy.

The property has been let for a number of years, and whilst it benefits from a relatively modern gas-fired boiler and UPVC double glazing, it now warrants some updating and improvement throughout – in particular the conservatory, which is of timber frame construction and coming to the end of its economic life, together with, potentially, extending and reconfiguring the accommodation to the rear – subject to the necessary consents.

Viewing – Strictly by appointment with the agent.  

Services – Mains water, drainage, electricity and gas connected.  Gas-fired boiler serving the central heating and hot water systems.
