House For Sale £750,000
The house stands well back from Shelford Road along a short private driveway shared with 5 neighbours. It was bought in the 1980s by the current owner, directly from the first who had been there from new. It has been comprehensively restored and extended into a fine family home.
The ground floor sitting room is over 7.3m (24 ft) in length and retains its original character including picture rails and a handsome Art Deco fireplace. Behind here a separate dining room has been added that leads into a modern conservatory. The kitchen is also extended and refitted.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a fantastic period bathroom with high-level wc, original free standing bath and a separate shower cubicle.
The front garden is gravelled giving parking for three cars and double gates open into a driveway at the side that provides further parking if required and leads to an oversize garage / workshop.
The rear garden is about 70m (230 ft) in length and an average width of 10m (32 ft) and backs onto allotments at the far end. There is a paved patio immediately off the house, long lawns, neat shrub borders, mature trees and various storage sheds. At the far end is a working area with a greenhouse. The whole plot is about 800 sqm (0.2 acres) including the area of driveway in front of the house that it owns.
Trumpington is a thriving, fast growing part of the city that still manages to retain its village identity and sense of community.
It is exceptionally well located for access into the Addenbrooke's campus, out to the M11 and into the city by car, bus, guided bus, by bicycle on one of several purpose-built cycle routes, or even an enthusiastic walk. The city's mainline station can be easily reached along the guided busway cycleway without having to mix with car traffic at all.
The area has three primary schools and a brand new state-of-the-art secondary school that opened in 2016 bringing with it, excellent sporting facilities including a private members' gym. A number of private schools are within cycling distance.
There are also various restaurants, pubs, shops, a post office, hairdresser, surgery, pharmacy, library, Waitrose supermarket and two new country parks.
