Cavendish Avenue, Cambridge

A charming and significantly extended 1930’s house providing characterful accommodation with modern additions extending to 1840 sqft, set in delightful surrounding gardens on Cavendish Avenue.

This 1930’s end of terrace house occupies a generous triangular-shaped plot with established wrap-around gardens, which provide a high degree of privacy, colour and space.

The property was significantly improved and sympathetically extended in 2016 to create additional two-storey accommodation on one side and a spacious loft conversion. The property effortlessly blends character and charm with thoughtful contemporary features. It should also be noted that the property benefits from wrap-around external insulation and a very large capacity underground water storage unit laid underneath the front lawn which provides rain water for flushing the toilets and watering the garden.

Set back and well-screened from the road, this fine family home is approached via a gravel driveway and natural gardens with an attractive pathway leading to the main entrance and rear garden areas.

A bright and open reception hall provides a cloaks area and leads to all ground floor accommodation. An impressive and well-proportioned kitchen/dining room was added in 2016. A well-equipped, custom-made kitchen provides extensive storage (including a walk-in larder) and enhances this homely space. There is ample room to extend the dining/seating space and double doors open to the garden.

A cosy sitting room with a wood burning stove and attractive flooring connects to the family room. A large and useful utility room with access to a outside covered storage area and wet room complete this level.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to a family bathroom suite with a separate shower cubicle and three spacious double bedrooms. Bedroom 2 (refer to floor plan) has a vaulted ceiling, a walk-in wardrobe. built-in storage areas and a feature porthole window.

The principal bedroom is located on the second floor. This generous room provides an ensuite bathroom, extensive under eaves storage and a study/dressing area.

Outside, there is off-street driveway parking to the front. Private and useable front gardens enjoy lots of colour and scent and tranquil spaces to relax and socialise. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with established hedging to the borders. Wild areas have been created to attract wildlife and there is space for a kitchen/vegetable garden. A broad covered area adjacent to the property provides excellent storage for bicycles, garden furniture and logs.
