Description
This beautifully improved 1950's bay-fronted residence blends timeless character with modern comfort and eco-conscious living. Thoughtfully redesigned for tranquillity and privacy, it enjoys a peaceful yet prominent setting on the sought-after Cherry Hinton side of Queen Edith’s Way, by Greystoke Road. With its solar panels installed in 2019 and mature landscaping that wraps the home in natural greenery, it is a calm and efficient city retreat.
The property welcomes you with a glazed panelled door that opens into a hallway showcasing original herringbone parquet flooring and ample storage, including under-stair space and a guest cloakroom. The bay-fronted living room is bright and inviting, with potential for an open fireplace, while the generous kitchen/dining room features solid oak worktops, soft-close cabinetry and integrated appliances. French doors lead to a landscaped garden, blending indoor and outdoor living. A modern WC and bespoke storage add further convenience on the ground floor.
Upstairs, the home offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two spacious doubles with garden or bay-window views and a third single room ideal as a bedroom or home office. The contemporary four-piece bathroom features underfloor heating and high-end finishes, with an adjacent utility area. The loft, already equipped with lighting, electrics, Velux windows and plumbing, holds exciting potential for conversion. Externally, the beautifully landscaped rear garden provides a private oasis, while the front garden and driveway offer off-street parking and a welcoming green buffer from the road.
Positioned for convenience, the property offers easy access to Addenbrooke's Hospital, a short walk to ARM, easy transport links to Babraham Research Campus, Cambridge Station, the Bio-Medical campus and key commuter links, including the A14, A11 and M11. Nature lovers will appreciate the proximity to the Chalk Pits Nature Reserve, Cherry Hinton Hall Park and other local green spaces like Wandlebury Country Park. Every day amenities are within comfortable reach.
