3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Newmarket Road, Cambridge CB5

A beautifully presented 1930’s bay-fronted home with a garage, driveway and a generous garden, situated near the city centre with easy access to the A14 and Cambridge North Station via the Chisholm Trail. Available with no onward chain.

This 1930’s semi-detached home has been well cared for and occupies a most convenient position, less than 2 miles from the city centre and just a 6-minute cycle from Cambridge North Station. With a well-designed layout, the property features bay windows, original exposed floorboards, a wooden staircase, pine doors, and a country-style kitchen.

There is a welcoming entrance hall with space for coats and footwear, finished with original wood flooring, which continues through to the main reception room. The bay-fronted living room benefits from southerly aspects and period features. The bespoke timber kitchen is finished with solid oak worktops and a butler sink and features a freestanding island. Wooden double doors open into the conservatory, which boasts delightful views over the landscaped rear garden. Completing the ground floor accommodation is an inner hallway that serves as utility/cloakroom with a semi-fitted pine wardrobe, providing access to the garden via a side-door, and leading to a downstairs shower room with a wash hand basin and W.C.

Upstairs are three bright bedrooms, all with exposed original wood flooring. The main bedroom benefits from southerly aspects and a bay-fronted window. The family bathroom has been fitted with a white suite, has a dual aspect and a shower over the bath. The landing provides access to a loft and a window above the stairwell gives extra light to the first floor.

Outside, the property is set back from the main road behind a brick wall and paved driveway. Gated side access leads to a generous garage with an adjoining garden store. The rear garden measures approximately 78ft (23m) x 27ft (8.2m) and offers a superb degree of privacy. There is a large, paved terrace, well suited to alfresco dining during the warmer months. The remainder is principally laid to lawn, stocked with shrubs and trees, and featuring an arbour; the whole is enclosed by fencing.
