Description

This three-bedroom terraced house is set in a quiet cul-de-sac on the south-eastern side of Cambridge, with access to the city centre, mainline station and Addenbrooke's Hospital Biomedical Campus. Sainsbury's is nearby, as are the Beehive Centre, local schools, open spaces and the shops and cafes of Mill Road, around a 10-minute walk away. The ground floor has an entrance hall and a large open-plan living and dining room, with a front bay window, stone-surround fireplace and under-stairs storage. The kitchen has space for an oven and washing machine, a gas boiler and a sink overlooking the garden. It also connects to a downstairs WC and the rear courtyard. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including two doubles, and a landing cupboard housing the hot-water cylinder. Outside, a mature courtyard garden includes a shed, with rear pedestrian access to a further garden area backing onto Coldham's Common. The property has a private driveway. Solar water-heating panels are fitted to the roof, but are untested. The house is described as needing modernisation, giving a buyer scope to update the accommodation. It is freehold, with mains water, drainage and gas.

Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £400,000, this three-bedroom Cambridge terrace is priced at £398/sq ft, around 30% below the local average—a strong entry point for a buyer looking to add value. Its generous open-plan living and dining room, private driveway and position backing onto Coldham’s Common give the project a distinctive base, with Mill Road and the city’s key amenities within reach.

The work is mainly a moderate modernisation: dated decoration and flooring, an older kitchen and bathroom, and overgrown garden areas offer clear scope to refresh and personalise the home. The exterior appears generally intact in the photos; the solar water-heating panels are present but untested. The renovation range is £27,000–£58,000, so the opportunity is to make the most of the below-local-average purchase price while planning the improvements carefully.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the spacious open-plan living and dining room, including its dated finishes and stone-surround fireplace.
  • Modernise the older kitchen and bathroom finishes to suit a new owner.
  • Clear and improve the garden areas, making better use of the paved sections and setting beside Coldham’s Common.
