This exceptional family home is located at the end of an attractive no-through road in Newnham and stands semi-detached, adjoining beautiful natural surroundings, rarely found within the city boundary. This broad and imposing 1930s house has been the subject of a full and exhaustive modernisation, expansion and renovation program. The end result is first class and provides extensive and well adapted accommodation finished to a high specification, which combines a creative, contemporary interior design with all the charm and character of a period home.

The property occupies a peaceful, semi-rural location adjoining countryside walks to Grantchester Meadows, the river and the Cocks and Hens Cambridge Tennis Club. Independent shops in Newnham, outstanding schools and the historic city centre are all within a short walk.

The impressive reception hall has been extended to create lots of natural light. Ample concealed storage space has been added to this area and there is a useful WC. The charming and beautifully presented sitting room benefits from dual aspects, replacement hardwood windows with bespoke shuttering, a large decorative fireplace with inset woodburning stove, attractive oak flooring, picture rails and original plaster coving. The principal reception area is an impressive open plan space with extensive glazing and oak flooring, made up of three main areas. The beautiful and well-equipped kitchen has a matching range of handmade solid wood cabinets and drawers, marble working surfaces with a bullnose edge detail, double Belfast sink, a range oven with extractor hood over, integrated dishwasher and central Island unit with a solid ash worktop and additional storage and breakfast bar overhang. The dining/family/study area enjoys a high degree of natural light, complete views of the garden and surroundings beyond, with access to a large outside terrace area via tri-folding doors. There is a cosy semi-open sitting room with woodburning stove, picture rails and plaster coving. A useful utility room providing additional storage space and plumbing for freestanding appliances completes the ground floor accommodation.
