Ditton Walk, Cambridge

A beautifully presented and thoughtfully extended Victorian terraced home, offering a blend of character features and modern living accommodation, situated in a sought-after residential location.

The current owners have significantly improved the property during their ownership, most notably with a ground floor side and rear extension completed under Permitted Development in August 2020, creating a practical entrance hallway, a contemporary ground floor bathroom and an enlarged kitchen/dining space ideal for modern family living.

The accommodation extends to approximately 800 sq ft (74 sq m) and comprises a welcoming living room to the front, leading through to a separate family room which provides a versatile reception space. To the rear, the impressive extended kitchen/dining room enjoys excellent natural light and offers ample space for cooking, dining and entertaining. The ground floor is completed by a stylish bathroom fitted with a modern suite.

On the first floor are two bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom with built-in storage, together with a well-appointed family bathroom.

Externally, the property benefits from a low-maintenance rear garden which has been attractively landscaped with artificial turf, providing an ideal space for outdoor entertaining and year-round enjoyment. To the front, there is a driveway providing off-road parking and fitted with an electric vehicle charging point.

A particular feature of the property is the detached garden office, which is fully connected with power and internet, making it ideal for home working, a studio or hobby space. The building also benefits from its own shower room/WC facilities, offering excellent flexibility for a variety of uses.

Agents note: The garden office is available by separate negotiation and, depending on the level of offer received, the seller may be willing to include it within the sale.

The area of garden to the side of the property, which includes the home studio, is registered under a separate title. The sellers acquired this additional parcel of land to extend and enhance the size of the garden.
