House For Sale £1,250,000
The five apartments at Number 423 Newmarket are of recent construction and comprise two properties on the ground floor, two on the first floor and one at the top level. The front elevation has been designed to harmonise with neighbouring properties, in particular the Victorian Terrace to the east, whilst also having elements that distinguish this as a modern building. With ground level entrance points at the front and rear of the block, the communal hallway gives access to Flats 1 and 2, with stairways rising to the first and second floor properties.
With neutral décor throughout and a light and airy ambience, all the apartments provide a sense of calm simplicity for an uncomplicated lifestyle. Fitted with modern white cabinetry, the kitchens offer integrated appliances which include oven and hob, refrigerator and dishwasher, with a washing machine/tumble dryer in a utility cupboard. The adjoining reception area provides space for dining and relaxed seating, with the ground floor apartments having doors opening onto the courtyard garden, whilst at the second level, the doors front a glazed balustrade allowing natural light and air into the properties. Each apartment has a good-sized bedroom, with skylight windows in the bedroom of the second floor property ensuring a light-filled retreat, whilst all enjoy the benefits of smart shower rooms with contemporary fittings.
Access to the apartments is either from Newmarket Road, at the entrance door, or through a rear timber gate from the footpath which adjoins Stanley Road. The building is slightly set back from the Newmarket Road footway where wrought iron railings form a boundary with shrubbery behind creating an attractive frontage. At the rear, the paved courtyard has timber fencing to boundaries providing privacy and security, with a central path leading to steps up to a decorative timber arbour. Brick retaining walls to either side of the steps form raised beds, which are planted with high and low level shrubs. The communal courtyard offers opportunities to sit on warm evenings and enjoy the westerly aspect, whilst also providing an amenity space for bin and bike storage.
Newmarket Road offers coffee shops, eateries and bars, with supermarkets nearby along with the Grafton Shopping Centre where there is a cinema and a good range of retail units. Anglian Ruskin University and Midsummer Common are both just a 1 mile distant and riverside walks/runs can be enjoyed with the Cam just metres from the property. Cambridge city centre offers a wide choice of high street stores, independent shops, high-quality restaurants, leisure facilities and cultural attractions, including The Cambridge Arts Centre and The Fitzwilliam Museum. Renowned educational facilities in the vicinity include The Perse School, The Leys and St Faith’s School. For commuters, the mainline train station offers regular services to London Kings Cross and Liverpool Street, along with train journeys to Birmingham, Norwich and Brighton. Road junctions to join the M11 motorway and A14 dual carriage are nearby and provide excellent links to the major road networks, whilst London Stansted Airport is less than 30 miles distant for travel further afield.
