Description

This semi-detached house presents a well-structured layout with three bedrooms, catering perfectly to families looking for space and potential. Set in a desirable area to the north of the city, the property resides on a spacious plot featuring a large rear garden and ample driveway parking, enhancing its appeal as an investment opportunity. Having been in the same ownership since its construction in 1956, this property has been maintained adequately but is now primed for modernization. With significant potential for expansion (subject to necessary approvals), it offers scope for both personal customization and increased value through renovation in a well-established residential neighborhood close to amenities and transport links. The entrance hall opens up to a kitchen fitted with essential units and plumbing provisions, leading into comfortable living and dining spaces that connect seamlessly with a conservatory overlooking the generous garden. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms—two being doubles with built-in wardrobes—and a family bathroom that could benefit from updating. The front of the property features a part-paved, part-gravelled driveway behind a low boundary wall, while the rear garden boasts a warm southwesterly aspect, providing an ideal spot for outdoor enhancements or landscaping projects. Located near Cambridge North railway station and local facilities on Chesterton High Street, this home is well-situated for both convenience and future growth prospects.
