Description

This property presents a remarkable investment opportunity on a spacious south-west facing plot, perfect for redevelopment or modernization. The 1960s home boasts over 1,600 sq ft of adaptable living space, making it an ideal canvas for those looking to create a personalized family residence in a prime location. The substantial front and south side areas of the plot open up possibilities for significant extensions or even a new build, subject to planning consents. The ground floor features a central hallway leading to a bright and airy sitting room with a gas fireplace, which flows into a conservatory that overlooks the garden. In addition to this principal living area, there are two versatile reception rooms that can serve multiple purposes such as dining or study spaces. A practical kitchen with integrated appliances, utility area, and a shower room complete the downstairs layout. Upstairs offers four bedrooms—two generous doubles and two comfortable singles—alongside a family bathroom. With natural light flooding through double-glazed windows and the benefit of gas central heating throughout, this home is ready for modernization. The rear garden stands out with its mature landscaping and sunny exposure, providing an excellent outdoor space. To enhance your vision further, there is additional potential along the southern side of the house for expansion beyond current dimensions (subject to necessary permissions). The front yard includes ample parking on a gravel driveway and leads to a detached garage. Situated in a highly desirable area of Cambridge with access to top schools and commuting routes, this property not only offers immediate living but also great potential for enhancing value through renovation or development.
