Moving to Huntingdon

Huntingdon is an old market town in Cambridgeshire. Throughout its history it has had many notable residents including Oliver Cromwell, EastEnders’s actor Himesh Patel, and Chelsea footballer Todd Kane. One of the most famous landmarks in the town is Hitching Brooke house, which once used to be a convent. It is rumoured to be haunted by the nuns of times gone by.

Detached homes are big business in Huntingdon, and many who move to the area are impressed with the prices. Large four-beds range between £225,000 and £330,000. For those seeking striking five or six bed detached properties, up budgets to around £340,000. The historic centre of Huntingdon is small but home to some beautiful period terraces and town houses; Ermine Street and Great Northern Street in particular. Head to Hartford Road if you have a penchant for Victorian homes. Semis range from £180,00 to £250,000. Terraces start at £125,000 for modern properties and £155,000 for period homes. For first time buyers, one-bed flats hover around £115,000.

In terms of rental opportunities, flats start at £500 pcm. For two bedrooms, a budget of £650 pcm is needed as a minimum. The closer flats are to the train station, the more the rent is. Terraced homes tend to have two or three bedrooms and are under £1000 pcm. Semis also fall into this same price bracket, whereas detached homes are over £1000 pcm. For prices over £1400 pcm, you can reside in huge and often period properties.
