Grantchester Street, Cambridge

An established, bay-fronted period residence with a well-tended west-facing garden, offering exciting scope to extend and improve (STPP) and situated close to the heart of Newnham.

This delightful bay-fronted property dates from 1880 and enjoys a delightful position on the west side of the street, close to the heart of Newnham.
