Occupying a superb position on a popular riverside road, 28 Abbey Road is a handsome and generously proportioned five bedroom home offering the space, flexibility and convenience required for modern family life.

The property is situated just moments from the River Cam, with Midsummer Common, local schools, shops and Cambridge city centre all within easy reach. Despite its highly convenient setting, the house enjoys a peaceful rear garden, a garage and useful vehicular access.

A panelled entrance door opens into the hallway and through to the exceptionally spacious principal reception room. Measuring approximately 24'6" x 17'10", this impressive room provides ample space for separate sitting, entertaining, dining and play areas.

A double-glazed bay window fills the room with natural light, while the open fireplace, decorative tiled flooring and generous proportions give the space warmth and character. Stairs rise to the upper floors, with useful storage beneath.

At the rear of the house is a bright and contemporary kitchen fitted with an extensive range of sleek white cabinetry and generous work surfaces. Integrated appliances include a Bosch oven, five-ring gas hob, dishwasher and refrigeration, while the large central peninsula provides additional preparation space and storage.

The kitchen opens into a light filled breakfast and family area, creating an excellent everyday living space overlooking the garden. French doors and additional glazing connect the interior with the outside, making this an ideal arrangement for family life, summer entertaining and informal dining. A separate ground-floor cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.

The first floor provides three well proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from excellent built in storage, while the remaining rooms offer flexibility for children, guests or home working. The bathroom includes a freestanding roll top bath with shower above.

Two further bedrooms occupy the second floor. These characterful rooms would be particularly well suited to older children, teenagers, guests or dedicated study spaces. The three-storey layout also provides potential for future reconfiguration or the creation of additional bathroom facilities, subject to the necessary permissions and professional advice.

OUTSIDE

The property is approached through a shallow front garden enclosed by a low brick wall, with a paved pathway leading to the entrance.

To the rear is a private, east facing garden that provides a wonderfully peaceful retreat from the city. Principally laid to lawn, it includes established planting, raised borders and seating areas adjoining the house.

Gated vehicular access runs alongside the property and leads towards the rear garden and single garage, offering useful flexibility for parking, bicycles, storage or workshop use.

LOCATION

Abbey Road forms part of Cambridge’s highly desirable Riverside neighbourhood, an especially appealing location for families who want access to green open spaces, respected local schools and the amenities of central Cambridge.

The River Cam is approximately 30 seconds’ walk away, placing riverside walks, cycling routes and open countryside almost on the doorstep. Midsummer Common and Stourbridge Common are also nearby, offering extensive recreational space for walking, running and family activities.

The property is well placed for St Matthew’s Primary School and Parkside Community College, while a broad selection of independent and state schools can be found throughout the city. Prospective purchasers should confirm current admissions arrangements and catchment areas directly with the relevant authorities.

Local shops and everyday amenities are close at hand, with further shopping, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities available around Fitzroy Street, the Grafton area and Cambridge city centre. Cambridge Central and Cambridge North railway stations are also readily accessible.

Offered with no onward chain, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and highly adaptable family home combining riverside living, generous accommodation and exceptional access to central Cambridge.
