Pearce Close, Newnham, Cambridge CB3


Description
In this friendly cul-de-sac, close to the heart of Cambridge, £1.65m buys you a bright & cheerful family-home circa 1983, whose Freehold includes the next-door land-with-building-consent for you to create an additional detached-house as shown: 3 floors/240sqm. Tailor-make your welcome home!

Location

The Sunday Times voted this elegant, peaceful neighbourhood of Newnham in the heart of Cambridge, “the best place to live in England”, and here’s your share of that natural beauty.

Please feel free to come view this land-plot & existing house from outside, without troubling to book an appointment. (Beware parking-restrictions 11am till 2pm that deter commuter-traffic.) You can see the site well enough from the curb-side, but please stroll on & around the grass, to get a feel for its full potential. East to West, the plot runs from its back boundary fence with Wolfson College (a quiet post-graduate Cambridge University College), all the way to its front curb-stone with the Pearce Close tarmac. There is no Council verge impinging on the Plot, which is why the lampost can be removed by you to a public verge elsewhere in the cul-de-sac. North to South, the approximate plot runs circa 6inches from the garage-wall of No3, all the way across to the southern garden boundary-fence of No6.

Please do call in at No6, just knock & ring the bell, no appointment necessary. The 20 year Resident-Owner & now Seller of 7 & 6, the Cambridge well-being psychologist Dr Nick Baylis, warmly welcomes discussing your interest in the various possibilities & the planning permissions for these two characterful homes/two detached houses, that will make great neighbors.

Property description

Tenure: Freehold

Number 6: The existing 1983, west-facing, 4-bed detached-house has circa 1,350sqft or 125sqm of internal living-space, gardens on three sunny sides, a 2 car gravel driveway, natural floorings of slate and solid wood with all doors to match, a spacious Study, and a real-fireplace in the Lounge.

This bright & cheerful family-home has great potential for enlargement into the Attic; full-extension to the boundary of her North-wing Breakfast-Diner; and a Conservatory in the southerly-garden area leading off the lounge. Cgi’s and floorplans illustrating these possibilities, plus the recent planning-consents for such additions, are all available from Nick.

Number 7: The additional new-build three-storey 240sqm luxury detached-house permitted to sit next door to number 6, is provisionally called number 7. Her good-looking, good-living design has Full Planning Consent legal for three years from 16th June 2021: 20/04715/Ful

She’s a unique & original concept whose windows & walls are thoughtfully arranged to ensure your peace & privacy (and afford the neighbours theirs). Her kind-natured & highly practical features include: A delightful top-floor master-suite with open-air sun-terrace; there are 3 real fireplaces; Juliet balconies, a secure bike-yard & big car port; a glass-brick natural-light staircase; and south-facing sun-blessed rooms that all open onto a walled back-garden.

The computer image at the front of this advert closely approximates what’s currently permitted for the new No.7 though your building-materials & colours can be varied to suit your tastes. Alternatively, you can apply to Cambridge City Council for Permission to build your own design entirely. Look for self-build mortgage companies, and imagine how you could live at the existing 1983 house (or rent it out) while you commission a brand new home built to your specifications, at which time you sell the older house tax-free.

Note that this No7 land-plot has enjoyed Full Planning Consent for a detached-house since 2015, i.e. The Permission has been renewed without problem or contest on three occasions now: 2015,2018,2021.

There is also a building-permission precedent for a full dig-out of No7 to provide an additional 1,600sqft of 12ft high-ceilinged, well-lit Lower-Ground living-space. CGis and floorplans are available.

To be clear : For Sale is the existing No.6 Pearce Close Freehold that includes its Plot-with-Building-Permission for No.7

Neither 6 or 7 is for sale separately; they are being sold only as a joint-pair.

There is no sales-chain. By arrangement, the existing No.6 house & its building-land No.7 can all be vacant within a few days of the Sale Completion.

Nick wishes a swift, good-natured, and conventional Sale, e.g. 10% Deposit before subsequent Completion.

An experienced and local specialist Conveyancing Solicitor will efficiently conduct the contracts of Sale for Dr Baylis.

Nick’s additional Legal Adviser is Mr C.L.G. Baylis, llm mba (Trinity Hall, Cambridge University).
