House For Sale £725,000
Highsett, Cambridge CB2


Description
Highsett is a secure and exclusive 4-hectare site, conveniently situated just off Hills Road in the heart of Cambridge. No.84 forms part of the Grade II Listed development, which was designed by Eric Lyons, an architect and former student of Walter Gropius, now widely regarded as one of the pioneering masters of modernist architecture.

The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance hall with a southerly aspect and views over a paved terrace. There is a light and airy sitting / dining room which benefits from a dual aspect and high ceilings. Adjoining the dining area is a kitchen which has been fitted with a modern range of units with various integrated appliances and built-in storage solutions, including an understairs cupboard.

Upstairs are 3 good sized bedrooms, 2 of which include built-in cupboards. The landing has an airing cupboard and gives access to the bathroom which has been fitted with a white suite, complemented by tiled walls and a heated towel rail.

Outside, the development features delightful communal gardens, designed to resemble a college courtyard and provide a unique and peaceful setting in which to relax, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The "bowl", which sits within the development has proven to be a most enjoyable communal area for residents over the years, having hosted garden parties amongst other events.

The property itself has a single garage (No.40) which is located in a nearby block. The property comes with permit parking for 1 vehicle and a visitors permit. Additional permits can be applied for. The front of the property has a paved patio, partly enclosed by bricked walls and overlooking a mature and well-tended communal garden. The rear garden extends to around 18m / 60ft and has been stocked with a delightful array of established shrubs, plants and trees, creating a real oasis and offering a superb degree of privacy throughout.

There is a service charge of £375 per quarter, covering the maintenance and upkeep of communal areas and gardens, window, roof and gutter cleaning is also included.

Highsett is arguably one of the city's most desirable locations. Situated just off Hills Road between Station Road and Tenison Avenue, the property enjoys a quiet, yet central position and is a short walk from The Cambridge University Botanic Garden.

The property would be ideal for young families, professionals or those looking to downsize from a larger city home. It is an ideal city home for commuters, within walking distance of the railway station and the city centre with its combination of ancient and modern buildings, winding lanes, excellent choice of schools and wide range of shopping facilities.

The area is in catchment for a number Ofsted rated 'outstanding' schools, including St. Albans Catholic Primary School and Parkside Community College, whilst the acclaimed Hills Road Sixth Form College is also close by.
