Hulatt Road, Cambridge

A three-bedroom home offering around 1,178 sq ft in total, with a garage, driveway and a notably established rear garden. The property now requires updating, but the underlying proportions and layout give a buyer plenty to work with, particularly in a part of Cambridge where houses offering this combination of internal space, parking and garden can have lasting practical appeal.

The ground floor provides more accommodation than the frontage might initially suggest. A central hallway leads to a separate kitchen, dining room and two connected living spaces. The sitting room extends to almost 16 ft and opens into the dining room, creating a useful degree of connection while retaining clearly defined areas for everyday living. Beyond this, the conservatory looks directly onto the garden and provides another adaptable space. There is also a ground-floor bathroom, while the existing arrangement presents scope for a new owner to reconsider how the principal rooms work together as part of a wider refurbishment, subject to any necessary consents.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a separate shower room. The two larger bedrooms provide comfortable double rooms, while the third is sufficiently substantial to work as a bedroom rather than simply an occasional study. Rooflights bring natural light into the first-floor rooms, and the overall arrangement should suit buyers looking for genuine three-bedroom flexibility.

Outside is an important part of the proposition. The rear garden has good depth and is enclosed by mature trees and planting, giving it an established, relatively private character. A detached garage measures approximately 21'8" x 9'6", with driveway parking alongside the house.

The property is currently held on a shared ownership basis with Cambridge City Council; however, it will be transferred to 100% ownership upon completion of the sale.

Hulatt Road is in the south-east of Cambridge, an established residential location well placed for access to the city, Addenbrooke’s Hospital, the Biomedical Campus and routes towards the A11 and M11. For buyers prepared to undertake improvement work, the appeal here lies in being able to shape a sizeable house to their own requirements while retaining the fundamentals that are harder to create: three usable bedrooms, generous ground-floor accommodation, a garage, parking and a mature garden.

This is a property where the opportunity is best understood by looking beyond the present finish and considering what the existing space could become.
