Gerard Road, Cambridge

This semi-detached family home welcomes you with a driveway and shingled frontage providing off-road parking for two vehicles.

Ground Floor
Inside, the living room is generously proportioned, with ample space for furniture offering a cosy atmosphere with useful shelving to the side of a boarded fireplace, complemented by durable Karndean flooring.

Completed in Spring 2016, the impressive kitchen extension forms the heart of the home. Flooded with natural light through Velux windows, it features solid oak cabinet doors, quartz worktops, integrated appliances, Karndean flooring and electric underfloor heating. A range of lighting options allows you to create the perfect setting for both everyday family life and entertaining.

A spacious and versatile intermediate reception area links the living room with the kitchen, offers excellent potential as a formal dining area, children's playroom, homework or study space, hobby room, or with additional cabinetry if desired.

The versatile ground floor study, currently used as a bedroom, could equally serve as a dining room, playroom or home office. Benefiting from underfloor heating and soundproofing with double-layer plasterboard and Rockwool insulation, it provides a comfortable and peaceful space.

To the rear of the property, a brick-built utility room and downstairs WC add everyday practicality. These are connected to the main house via a lean-to with wooden gates at both the front and rear, creating a useful covered passageway with ample storage for bicycles, gardening equipment and other outdoor essentials.

Outside
The private rear garden is bordered by mature trees, hedging and shrubs, creating a wonderful space for relaxing, and entertaining, the ideal space for family life and hosting.

First Floor
Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms, all benefiting from built-in storage. The principal and second bedrooms are generous doubles, while the third is a well-proportioned single, ideal as a child's bedroom, nursery or home office. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Further benefits include a fully boarded loft with a loft ladder, lighting and electrical sockets, providing excellent storage. The electrics were updated as part of the extension works, including a separate distribution unit for the kitchen extension, while the boiler and radiators were also replaced around the same time.

Location
Ideally positioned to the east of Cambridge city centre, the property enjoys excellent transport links via the A14, A10, Cambridge North and Cambridge railway stations, while remaining just a short cycle, bus journey or drive from the city centre, retail parks and a wide range of local amenities. The home is also well served by regular bus routes, with Galfrid Primary School approximately a five-minute walk away.

Coldham's Common and the Abbey Leisure Complex are both within easy walking distance, while a dedicated cycle path from the Common provides convenient access to the River Cam, Cambridge North Station and the Science Park.

The generous living spaces are ideal, while the mature rear garden with fruit trees offers plenty of outdoor space for families to enjoy. Combined with nearby green spaces, excellent transport links and local amenities, this property offers an outstanding setting for family life. Early viewing is highly recommended.
