Description
A spacious and well-proportioned semi-detached five-bedroom Edwardian family home, arranged over three floors. To the north of Cambridge city centre, and located within easy reach of local amenities, excellent schools, and transport links, it offers an ideal blend of practicality and charm, perfect for families or professionals.
The front garden is partially enclosed by a fence, with a block-paved path leading to the front door and a separate wide entry for off-street parking. There is also a gated side passageway providing access to the rear garden, making it ideal for bikes, buggies or storage.
Upon entry, you are welcomed into a bright and inviting hallway with original features such as stripped and varnished floorboards, decorative stained glass within the front door, intricate cornicing, and an archway with decorative plaster corbels. An antique-style radiator adds to the period character, and there is practical storage with an under-stairs cupboard.
The spacious front formal living room is flooded with natural light from the double-glazed sash windows set within the stone bay. A period fireplace with tiled slips, a hearth, and a decorative mantel serves as a striking focal point. Built-in bookshelves and cupboard space sit neatly in the alcoves to the side of the fireplace.
The open-plan kitchen, dining, and family room at the rear of the property is the true heart of the home, offering a fantastic space for everyday living for the entire family. French doors, with decorative glazing, open up from the family room to the terrace and south-easterly facing garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. Off the family room, there is a convenient WC as well as a well-sized utility room with separate external door.
The kitchen features Shaker-style wall and base units, solid wood countertops, a Belfast sink, an island with breakfast bar and a range cooker. There is an integrated dishwasher and space for a large freestanding fridge freezer.
The first floor retains more period features, with a mix of exposed floorboards and carpeted bedrooms. This floor comprises three double bedrooms and a further single bedroom – ideal as a nursery or study. The double bedroom at the rear of the property offers a bay window overlooking the garden, and is especially light and airy. A family bathroom with smart metro tiles and contemporary sanitaryware completes the floor.
The top floor offers a generous fifth bedroom with a large built-in wardrobe and air-conditioning. There is a separate bathroom with WC, bath and hand basin. This floor is bright and airy, with double-glazed sash windows overlooking the rear garden and Velux windows to flood the space with natural light.
The garden is a real highlight, enjoying a sunny south-easterly aspect. A paved terrace is perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining in the warmer months, with steps leading down to a generous lawn and a charming pear tree. Off-street parking at the front and convenient side access make everyday life that little bit easier.
This property also comes with the added benefit of planning permission for a single storey side extension.
This beautiful family home is located in an ever popular residential area just north of the river Cam and Midsummer Common and is just over one mile from Cambridge's bustling city centre. There are plenty of amenities close by including the ever popular Stir café; The Old Spring, Fort St George and The Tivoli pubs; superb restaurants; Milton Road library; and local shops, takeaways and other businesses towards Mitchams Corner.
The catchment area schools are the very well-regarded Milton Road Primary School and Chesterton Community College, which was last rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted.
