House For Sale £550,000
A handsome, bay fronted, semi-detached home, with a generous 31m / 101ft long rear garden and a large garage / workshop and off road parking to the rear. Formerly a three bedroom house, the property could easily have the main bedroom sub-divided again to reinstate the third bedroom if preferred. Offered with no upward chain.
The property is bright, spacious and well planned, although it is in need of work, including the fitting of a new kitchen and floor coverings, etc. It also has a converted loft space with a roof light, which may offer scope for a full conversion. Enjoying a generous plot, the property benefits from many lovely features including picture rails, attractive four panelled doors and a beautiful front door. It also offers potential for further expansion subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
Set behind a low brick wall, there is a front garden with a path leading to the front door, which is a lovely traditional design and is set inside a small porch. The entrance hall has a cloakroom off and the staircase leading up to the first floor, with a window on the landing providing natural light over the stairwell. There is a bay fronted sitting room overlooking the front garden and a lovely extended room to the rear offers space for a new kitchen to be fitted, and at the same time has plenty of room for sitting and dining areas. This room is light and airy and has views provided via patio doors over the south facing garden. The kitchen is currently fitted with a sink and drainer, a cooker point, and an old fashioned pantry.
On the first floor, the landing opens to two double bedrooms, and a bathroom fitted with a bath, w.c. And hand-basin. The main bedroom has had a partition wall removed and this could easily be reinstated if three bedrooms are required. From this bedroom there is also an access trap fitted with a ladder leading up to the loft space, which benefits from lighting, power sockets, a skylight and radiator connected to the main central heating system. The second bedroom is slightly smaller but is still a good size.
Outside, the rear garden is south facing with a generous patio adjacent to the back of the house. Steps lead down to a large expanse of lawn. At the far end of the garden there is a personal door opening to a very sizable garage and workshop fitted with power, light and a sink unit. There is hardstanding for parking behind the garage, off Mariners Way.
The property is located just north of the river, less than 1 mile from the city centre, and a short cycle from The Cambridge Science Park, Cambridge North Station and Cambridge Station.
Nearby, Chesterton has an excellent range of local facilities and amenities including a Post Office, medical centre, 2 churches and a number of public houses, takeaways and restaurants. A Tesco superstore, the Newmarket Road and the Beehive retail parks are also within easy reach as is the Grafton Centre and everything the city has to offer.
You can walk or cycle along Riverside into the city or to various nearby green spaces including Midsummer Common, Stourbridge Common and Jesus Green where a number of traditional public houses can be found nearby.
There are a number of reputable schools including Milton Road Primary School and Chesterton Primary, both of which are Ofsted rated as 'good'. Secondary schooling is also available at Chesterton Community College, Ofsted rated as 'outstanding'.
