Description

Dating back to the 1920s, this semi-detached house with three bedrooms is situated on the tranquil western fringes of the city. Although the current owners have maintained the property well, there is a clear opportunity for buyers to modernize and reconfigure the space according to personal preferences. The layout includes a sitting room, dining room, kitchen, garden room, and cloakroom on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. The gas-fired heating system operates through radiators, and the windows are double glazed with Upvc units. A sizable south-facing garden at the rear enhances its appeal, while an open-plan front garden presents potential for off-street parking—an advantage in urban settings. Utilities such as mains water, gas, and electricity are available; however, drainage is managed via a shared cesspit with the neighbouring property. The location is particularly advantageous for families with easy access to St John's Community Primary School and nearby leisure facilities that include restaurants, a cinema, sports centre, swimming pool, and various sporting activities like golf and tennis. Ely itself provides a robust mix of daily amenities and excellent transport links via the mainline railway station to Cambridge, London, Birmingham, and beyond.
