A superb, three-storey period city residence offering an excellent blend of convenience and character, situated a stone’s throw from the historic centre. Sold with the benefit of no onward chain.

30 Newnham Road forms part of a very charming, mid-19th Century terrace and is of traditional, brick construction under a mansard roof. The property has been thoughtfully and comprehensively remodelled by the current owners and offers characterful accommodation with period features, which has been well-adapted for modern living. It occupies a superb, central location to the west of the city near to Mill Pond, very conveniently placed for access to the historic centre and many of its colleges and University departments.

An inner porch opens into the kitchen, which has a terracotta tiled floor and a range of fitted units with wooden worksurfaces, tiled splashbacks, inset stainless steel sink, fitted electric oven with gas hob over, space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher, and space for a fridge/freezer.
