128 Tamarin Gardens has been updated and improved by the current owners to create a bright well proportioned 2 bedroom maisonette within this mature residential cul-de-sac. The front door to the maisonette is set back from the road and is approached over a well-kept lawned front garden. The front door opens onto the entrance hall with room for coats and shoes and stairs leading to the first floor. The living room sits to the front of the property and is filled with natural light from the south-facing bay window. The living room measures over 21 sqm / 233 sqft providing room for living furniture and a dining table. A cupboard over the stairs provides useful storage. The modern kitchen has been comprehensively fitted with wall and base mounted units, oak work surfaces and integrated appliances including a dishwasher, washing machine, electric oven, ceramic sink with boiling water tap, and induction hob with extractor over.
Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles with bedroom one benefiting from built-in wardrobes. The stylish bathroom has been updated and fitted with a modern three-piece white suite with a shower over the bath, a glass shower screen and finished with attractive floor-to-ceiling tiles.
Outside the property has use of a carport and storage cupboard located to the right of the front door, and a shared garden to the rear.
The lease has been recently extended by the sellers and expires in 2177 (153 years remaining) with a peppercorn ground rent. The property has recently undergone fire safety works so the service charge has been higher than usual at £2192 pa. From 2025 the service charge will reduce back to its normal levels of £1045 pa.
Tamarin Gardens is a popular cul-de-sac conveniently situated within easy reach of the local amenities. Cherry Hinton is a thriving, sought-after suburb just south east of the city. It is incredibly well served by a traditional High Street with an excellent range of shops, pubs, restaurants and takeaways plus leisure and health facilities. There is also a major Tesco supermarket off Yarrow Road.
There are two primary schools which feed Netherhall secondary school.
The area is highly popular with commuters thanks to its excellent access Addenbrooke's (1.5 miles), Cambridge railway station (2 miles) and on to the city centre (3.5 miles) and also with those looking for a traditional community with excellent day-to-day facilities that feels close to the city but retains its own identity.
Cherry Hinton benefits from having excellent bus links into the city centre, central station and Addenbrookes, coupled with easy access on to the A14 for anyone commuting elsewhere.
