Newmarket Road, Cambridge

A bay-fronted Edwardian house with driveway parking, approved planning permission for a two storey rear extension and loft conversion to create a substantial 5 bedroom family home, set in large grounds of 0.15 acres and for sale with no chain.

This spacious, mid-terraced Edwardian house dates back to 1918 and enjoys a generous private garden that extends to around 160ft / 48m. With planning permission already in place, the property represents an exciting opportunity to acquire a superb family home in a prominent location just east of the city centre.

On the ground floor are two reception rooms including a bay-fronted sitting room, which benefits from southerly aspects and has an open fireplace, contrasted by exposed brickwork. The kitchen has been fitted with a range of base and wall mounted units; integrated appliances include a double oven and an electric hob. There is a separate utility room with additional units and space/plumbing for appliances. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a W.C. accessed via the outside.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms and the main bathroom, which has been fitted with a white suite including a shower over the bath. The master bedroom is particularly spacious and includes a bay window. The landing provides access to a useful loft room, which has plenty of eaves storage and a large Velux roof light to rear.

Outside, there is a driveway providing off road parking. A side access leads to the rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn and measures around 160ft x 38ft (max), offering superb scope to extend further or to build a one and a half storey bungalow type property (subject to necessary consents). There is a raised terrace and a greenhouse. The garden itself is wonderfully mature and bordered with a variety of mature shrubs, plants and trees.
