A well-presented mid-terrace home offering spacious accommodation throughout, overlooking a small green and featuring gardens and off-street parking to the rear. Situated in a sought-after South Cambridge location.
The property is approached through a shallow front garden, with a pathway leading to the front door, which opens into a welcoming entrance hall. The hallway benefits from under-stair storage and a large additional cupboard, which was once used as a darkroom for developing photographic film, adding a touch of character and history to the home.
At the front of the property, the modern fitted kitchen features a range of units, ample work surfaces, a stainless steel sink with mixer tap, and space for appliances. A range cooker with a stainless steel extractor hood completes this well-equipped kitchen, with a window overlooking the front aspect. The sitting/dining room, located at the rear of the home, is bright and spacious, with windows and doors that allow natural light to flood the room and provide access to the rear garden. The room also benefits from a gas fire, with a back boiler system serving the hot water and central heating.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to three bedrooms—two doubles and a single, typical of homes from this era. The family bathroom has been refitted and converted into a modern shower room, complete with a three-piece suite: a low-level WC, pedestal wash hand basin, panelled bath with shower over and glass screen.
