Situated in The Broadmeadows development on Manhattan Drive, the development enjoys an enviable location overlooking beautiful communal gardens, with Cambridge's historic city centre, Grafton Centre, Jesus Green, Midsummer Common, Cambridge North railway station and a wide range of shops, cafés and restaurants all within easy reach. The property also benefits from excellent transport links to the A14, M11 and Science Park, making it an ideal purchase for professionals, first-time buyers, downsizers and investors alike.

Radcliffe & Rust Estate Agents are delighted to offer for sale this beautifully presented two-bedroom ground floor apartment, positioned within the highly sought-after Broadmeadows development on Manhattan Drive, Cambridge. Occupying an enviable position within this landmark development overlooking Midsummer Meadows, the property has recently been enhanced with a stunning brand new kitchen and contemporary shower room, creating a stylish home that is ready to move straight into. Set within approximately four acres of beautifully maintained communal grounds, Broadmeadows enjoys a peaceful setting whilst remaining just a short walk from Cambridge city centre, the River Cam and an excellent range of local amenities.

The apartment is accessed via a secure communal entrance, with well-maintained communal hallways leading to the front door.

Stepping inside, the welcoming entrance hall provides access to all principal rooms and benefits from two useful storage cupboards, one housing the hot water cylinder whilst the other offers excellent space for coats, shoes and general household storage.

Positioned to the right of the hallway is the principal bedroom, a generous double room enjoying pleasant views across the communal gardens through a large window that fills the room with natural light. Finished in neutral tones with soft carpeting underfoot, the room offers ample space for additional freestanding furniture whilst also benefiting from fitted mirrored sliding wardrobes, providing excellent built-in storage.

Adjacent to the principal bedroom is bedroom two, another bright room overlooking the landscaped communal grounds. Perfect as a guest bedroom, child's bedroom or home office, the room comfortably accommodates a single bed and additional furniture whilst retaining a light and airy feel.

Serving both bedrooms is the beautifully refitted shower room, recently modernised to a high standard. Finished in crisp contemporary tones, it comprises a spacious walk-in shower with glazed screen, vanity wash hand basin with integrated storage beneath, concealed cistern WC, heated lighting, mirror and modern fittings throughout, creating a practical yet stylish space.

At the end of the hallway, the apartment opens into the impressive living and dining room. Stretching over 20 feet in length, this wonderfully proportioned room offers clearly defined seating and dining areas whilst remaining wonderfully open and sociable. The attractive bay window allows natural light to flood the room and enjoys attractive views across the communal gardens, creating a bright and welcoming environment for everyday living and entertaining alike.

Leading directly from the dining area is the recently installed kitchen, undoubtedly one of the property's standout features. Beautifully finished with sleek high-gloss light grey wall and base units complemented by oak-effect worktops, the kitchen provides a clean, contemporary aesthetic together with an excellent amount of storage and preparation space. Integrated appliances include an electric oven, electric hob with extractor above, whilst there is further space for a full-height fridge freezer and washing machine. Under-cabinet lighting and modern finishes complete this stylish space, making it both highly functional and visually impressive.

Outside, residents benefit from allocated parking together with additional visitor parking and secure bicycle storage. Broadmeadows itself is set within approximately four acres of beautifully maintained communal gardens, offering mature planting, manicured lawns and an exceptionally peaceful environment rarely found so close to Cambridge city centre.
