Description

This three-bedroom detached home presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment, boasting a mature garden and a garage, all while overlooking the scenic Girton Golf Club. Built in 1965, the property spans approximately 1,227 square feet (114 sqm) and is distributed over two levels, providing ample living space. On the ground floor, you enter through an entrance porch that leads into a welcoming hallway complete with a convenient WC and stairs to the upper floor. The layout includes three reception areas: a living room featuring a large picture window that opens onto the rear garden, a separate dining room, and a conservatory that has been updated with a durable composite roof. Additionally, the kitchen/dining area is notably spacious and filled with natural light. This level also contains a utility room and an integral garage for added practicality. The first floor comprises three bedrooms, each equipped with built-in wardrobes. The master bedroom stands out by offering picturesque views over Girton Golf Club. The bathroom has been modernized into a shower room fitted with contemporary fixtures including a walk-in shower, low-level WC, heated towel rail, and stylish vanity unit. Externally, the front of the property features a block-paved driveway leading to the garage alongside lush lawns adorned with mature shrubs and trees. The rear garden is particularly inviting; it boasts an array of established trees—including fruit-bearing varieties—alongside diverse plants that create an appealing wild garden atmosphere. A patio area off the conservatory and utility room provides an ideal space for outdoor dining during warmer months. A brook runs along the back of the plot, effectively managing surface water drainage. Located just two miles northwest of Cambridge city center via Huntingdon Road, Girton is recognized as a desirable residential area. Families will appreciate access to excellent local schooling options within walking or cycling distance, including both independent prep schools like St John's College and King's College as well as community schools such as Girton Glebe Primary School and Impington Village College. The village offers recreational amenities including its own golf course and tennis club while being surrounded by beautiful countryside perfect for leisurely walks. For everyday needs, Sainsbury’s supermarket in Eddington is nearby along with shops situated on Histon Road. Commuters will benefit from excellent road access to major routes like the A14 and M11 and can reach Cambridge North Station—a mere fifteen-minute cycle away—for rail travel to cities like London or Birmingham.
