Description

This three-bedroom mid-terrace house has two reception rooms on the ground floor, linked by glazed folding doors so they can be used separately or opened into a larger space. The front living room has a bay window, while the dining room sits beyond it. At the rear, the fitted kitchen has work surfaces, appliance space and access towards the garden. Upstairs are two larger bedrooms, a third bedroom and a family bathroom. The enclosed rear garden is mainly lawn, with established planting and a path leading back to the house. The property is offered with no onward chain and is described as requiring updating, giving a purchaser scope to adapt the existing accommodation. Any reconfiguration or extension would be subject to the necessary consents. Hemingford Road is within reach of Mill Road, Cambridge city centre, the railway station, local schools and everyday amenities.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This three-bedroom terrace has a useful starting layout: two reception rooms linked by glazed folding doors, plus an enclosed rear garden with established planting. The visible spaces look generally intact, so the dated finishes offer scope for a light, personalising refresh rather than a major overhaul.

At £500,000, the asking price is just below the local average on a £/sqf basis, which supports the value case. The overall score is still a weaker opportunity, with limited headroom against current local average values, but the Cambridge location, no onward chain and flexible reception space give it appeal for someone seeking a well-proportioned home to make their own.

Key opportunities

  • The glazed folding doors let the two reception rooms work separately or open into a more connected entertaining space.
  • Older finishes across the visible interiors offer scope to personalise the home with a light cosmetic refresh.
  • The enclosed garden has established planting and a lawn, with room to tidy and shape the space to suit.
