Maids Causeway, Cambridge

Grafton House is a 19th century villa that was previously a building used by a prestigious bank. Converted in 2020 it now provides modern and stylish accommodation; 18 apartments in total. It occupies a leafy position, set back from the sought after Maids Causeway in the centre of Cambridge.

This apartment is accessed via the left-hand communal entrance and is on the first floor. The communal areas are bright and luxurious.

The apartment itself benefits from a large window looking over the front of the plot. This means it is incredibly light. The kitchen is equipped with an electric hob, oven, washer / dryer and undercounter fridge with freezer compartment. A bathroom off to the side comprises a walk-in shower with glass screen, WC and basin. It is mostly tiled with a large mirror and a frosted-glass window.

The main living space of the apartment is technically a studio, but the high ceilings allow for a mezzanine over part of the room meaning spaces can be separated if required. The mezzanine is accessed via a ladder and it benefits from carpet.

The property has 120 years on the lease with a monthly service charge of £90 pcm.

There is no parking with the apartment but Grafton West car park is right behind the building. Bicycle parking is available just outside the main door to the building.

Grafton House is a recently converted building. Set back from the road, Maids Causeway, it is short walk in to the Cambridge City centre, the colleges and ideally located to enjoy all that Cambridge offers.

The Grafton Centre is behind the property, benefitting from two multi-storey car parks and a huge range of shops, bars, pubs and restaurants. The Grand Arcade shopping centre and historic Cambridge buildings are approximately 0.5m away via Christ's Piece.

In addition to Christ's Piece, there are further green spaces at Midsummer Common and Jesus Green, both of which are accessible on foot or by bicycle.

Cambridge Science Park is an approximate 17 minute bicycle ride. Addenbrookes Campus and Cambridge's main train station can both be reached in under 15 minutes too.
