Description

Tucked away on one of Chesterton’s most sought-after terraces, this home on Pye Terrace is an enchanting Victorian home that seamlessly blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates. A true gem, rarely available and deeply loved, this character-filled property invites you to step into a lifestyle of comfort, creativity, and convenience—moments from the heart of Cambridge.


Dating back to the late 1800s / very early 1900s, this four-bedroom mid-terrace home is arranged over three floors and showcases its period roots with lofty ceilings, original stained glass sash windows, and the warm patina of exposed wood floors. As you enter through the front garden gate and step into the welcoming entrance hallway, you immediately feel the warmth of a well-cared-for family home. To your right, an open-plan kitchen-dining-living space flows beautifully from one area to the next, bringing character and practicality together in perfect harmony. The kitchen, fitted with a range of base, wall, and eye-level units, offers modern convenience with its Belfast sink, tiled flooring, and a Falcon gas range cooker, while retaining a rustic country aesthetic. There’s ample room to cook and entertain, and as you move through to the dining area and into the lounge, the tone becomes increasingly relaxed and cosy. A log-burning stove invites you to gather on cooler evenings, while timber-framed French doors open directly onto the south-east facing courtyard garden—bathed in morning and midday light, the perfect place to share breakfast, enjoy a book, or entertain late into the evening.


The outdoor space is lush and welcoming with mature planting, multiple areas to sit, and a large storage shed. Paved and easily maintained, it’s ready for low-effort enjoyment but with the space and sunlight to be shaped into something more if desired.


Upstairs, the middle floor houses three bedrooms; two generous doubles and a charming single currently used as a home office. The bedrooms have deep-set sash windows, while bedrooms three and four have the potential to be reimagined—either as one large suite or kept separate depending on your needs. The family bathroom is a true showstopper. Framed by exposed beams and drenched in natural light from both a skylight and sash window to the rear, it’s a tranquil space that feels like a retreat. With a large bath, rain shower overhead, floating washbasin, WC, and characterful detailing, it’s a space you’ll love retreating to.

Upstairs again, the loft conversion houses the principal bedroom—flooded with light through velux windows to the front and two rear windows. Cleverly designed with sliding wooden shutters, generous integrated wardrobes, and additional eaves storage, the room feels both spacious and private. The adjoining en-suite features modern tiling, a walk-in shower and sleek fittings, making this top-floor retreat a calm and stylish haven.


The current owners have made thoughtful, valuable updates including a new boiler installed in 2024, ensuring peace of mind for years to come. There’s also a solar panel hot water system helping to reduce household bills while embracing sustainability.
Homes on Pye Terrace rarely come to market and it’s easy to see why. This home offers a compelling blend of old-world elegance and modern family comfort—a soulful space that will continue to grow with whoever is lucky enough to call it their own.

And then, of course, there’s the location. Chesterton is one of the most desirable and vibrant areas of Cambridge, with a welcoming community feel and an unbeatable proximity to everything the city has to offer. Cambridge North Train Station is a leisurely 10-minute cycle and offers direct trains to London King’s Cross in under an hour, making commuting into the capital completely hassle-free. Cambridge city centre is easily walkable or cycleable, opening up world-class culture, dining, shopping and green spaces. Local shops, schools, cafes and pubs are all within strolling distance, including Chesterton Community College (rated Outstanding by Ofsted) and Milton Road Primary School (Good). The river is moments away, offering tranquil walks and a cycle path directly into the city or up toward Milton Country Park.


Parking is available on-street to the front and is generally easy. The property enjoys a tucked-away location off the main road, meaning peace and quiet without compromising on convenience. Whether you’re a growing family, a couple looking for something truly special, or someone seeking a character home that’s both elegant and practical—this home delivers on every level.


This is more than just a house. It’s a rare opportunity to own a slice of Cambridge heritage in a location that balances beauty, community and connectivity. Don’t miss your chance to fall in love with Pye Terrace.
