Round House is a charming and historic Georgian building; the former toll house for Wimpole Estate, featuring a wealth of period features including original cast iron windows, clunch walls (local limestone) and slate roof.
The main entrance hall opens to either the 4th bedroom or as it is today, an impressive 23ft. dual-aspect music room, with its herringbone oak floor and garden views. The traditional kitchen with a tiled floor links the main hall with a second hallway with Victorian chequerboard floor tiles, which leads on to the striking octagonal drawing room, an excellent multi-aspect living and entertaining space with a central double-sided fireplace housing a multi-fuel stove. In addition, there is a dining room with an ornate cast-iron fireplace and a further cloakroom.
On the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a luxurious family bathroom with a freestanding rolltop bathtub and large separate walk-in shower. The generous 22 ft. principal suite also benefits from an ensuite bathroom.
Old Wimpole is located on the edge of the National Trust Wimpole Estate, although the house itself is set on the corner of the estate well away from the hustle and bustle of the main hall. Also, being on a hill, the home benefits from wonderful views, which is rare amidst the flat landscape of Cambridgeshire. The rural location provides privacy, although it remains within easy reach of nearby villages for shops and excellent local schools such as Comberton and Bassingbourn Village Colleges. The historic city of Cambridge is just a short drive away, while trains from nearby Royston or St Neots take you into London with ease.
Outside, the generous gardens serve as an extension of the house itself. The garden has a framework of box hedges complemented by lawned areas, herbaceous borders, shrubs and roses. At around a third of an acre, the garden also offers a fruit and vegetable patch, a charming summer house and a paved terrace all of which are lovely places to sit and relax with the views of the beautiful countryside just beyond.
A brick-paved driveway and built-in garage provide parking for several vehicles, whilst the flexible outbuilding has been converted into a workshop and separate hobby room.
