Description

Located on the popular Alex Wood Road in north Cambridge, this spacious three-bedroom mid-terrace home offers generous accommodation spread over two floors, making it an ideal purchase for families or buyers looking for a well-proportioned property with potential for modernisation and further extension, subject to planning permission (STPP).

The ground floor is entered via a practical porch that leads into an entrance hall, providing access to the main living spaces. At the front of the house is a bright dining room, which connects through to a well-appointed kitchen fitted with cabinetry and appliances. Beyond the kitchen is a lean-to and a rear hallway, which leads to a ground floor bathroom complete with WC, basin, and bath with gravity-fed shower. Towards the rear of the home, the layout opens into a spacious living room, which flows into a large family room with views and access out to the garden, offering a perfect space for relaxing or entertaining.

Upstairs, the first floor comprises three bedrooms. The principal bedroom is positioned at the rear of the property and stretches over 4.5 metres in length, providing ample space for furnishings. The second bedroom is also a comfortable double room, while the third bedroom, which is larger-than-average for a single room, offers flexibility as a nursery, home office, or extra bedroom. All bedrooms have excellent built-in storage. A family bathroom is located off the landing along with a separate WC, adding to the convenience of the upper floor.

Externally, the property benefits from a paved front driveway with off-street parking. The rear garden is a charming and mature outdoor space with a lawn, planting beds, and a patio seating area—ideal for outdoor dining and leisure. The garden is south-facing and approximately 60 feet in length, and also includes fruiting trees, grapevines, and flower beds stocked with David Austin roses and other perennials.

With an internal floor area of approximately 100.4 square metres (1080.2 square feet), not including the additional lean-to space, this home offers plenty of room to grow into. Situated close to local shops, schools, parks, and transport links into the city centre and beyond, 83 Alex Wood Road represents a superb opportunity to secure a home in a well-connected and family-friendly part of Cambridge.

Alex Wood Road stands on the border between the city's West Chesterton and Arbury wards, just north of the city centre. It is very well located for access out to the A14/M11 road networks and is a short cycle ride to the Cambridge Science Park. Cambridge North Railway Station is located nearby with direct links to London Kings Cross and Liverpool Street. Close by there are shops which include butcher, bakery, greengrocer and supermarket.

Schooling is available nearby at Arbury Primary School with secondary provision at North Cambridge Academy, both of which are Ofsted rated as good. There is plenty more schooling in the area including The Grove Primary School and Chesterton Community College.

About Cooke Curtis & Co, Cambridge

40 High Street, Trumpington, Cambridge, CB2 9LS
Industry affiliations:

Cooke Curtis and Co. have been Cambridge's thinkingest estate agents since 2015.

We're warm, we're bright, we're experienced, we're calm and considered under pressure, we're masterful marketeers and we're entirely devoted to giving our clients the very best we can.

And our best is demonstrably pretty exceptional. Witness our glowing (genuine, not paid for - watch out for that) online reviews and the industry awards and plaudits we can't stop winning (including Best Single Office Estate Agency in the whole of Great Britain from The Best Estate Agent Guide 2022 - beat that).

The people of Cambridge who have embraced us and shared in our success have done so not because we're the cheapest or the most ruthless, but because we always work enormously hard to achieve the best results for all our clients and we do so without compromising our ethos of being fair, honest and kind. Don't get us wrong, we're here to sell and let as many properties as we can, that kind of drive is exactly what you need from an estate agent, but we manage to do it without forgetting to make our parents proud of our methods as well as our results.

If we sound like your kind of people, you're probably our kind of person too. Let's work together.
