An extended and much improved 1930’s bay-fronted home with a converted garage and a west-facing garden, enjoying a quiet, near central position just 2 miles east of the city centre.
This attractive bay-fronted home has served as a wonderful family home over the last decade. The property was extended to the rear in 2004 and also benefits from a recently updated bathroom and kitchen. Windows, doors, fascias and gutters were also all replaced in 2016.
On the ground floor is a welcoming entrance hall with space for coats and footwear with stairs up to the first-floor. There is a bay-fronted sitting room with a feature fireplace, finished with original wood flooring. Of particular note is the property's impressive open-plan kitchen / breakfast room, which has a breakfast bar peninsula and adjoins a large dining room. The kitchen itself has been fitted with a stylish and bespoke range of units, boasts a Butler sink and various integrated Bosch appliances. The room benefits from an abundance of natural light, courtesy of three large Velux windows and French doors opening onto the rear garden.
Upstairs are three bedrooms, two of which are comfortable doubles and both have feature fireplaces. The bathroom has been refitted with a white suite, complemented by attractive tiling, inset spotlights and a heated towel rail. The landing provides access to a partially boarded loft with a pull-down ladder.
Outside the front of the property has a driveway and small open-plan garden, partially enclosed by a picket fence and mature hedgerows. The west-facing rear garden has a patio area, well-suited to alfresco dining in the warmer months. The remainder is laid to lawn and bordered with a variety of raised stocked sleeper beds and trees. There is also a large garage, which has shared rear access, and has been partially converted into a home office with power. An additional parking space can be found to the rear.
Location
Meadowlands Road is conveniently positioned just off Newmarket Road and is ideally situated for access to the Cambridge Stations and the A14/M11 road networks.
