Description

This charming bungalow offers a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, situated on a generous corner plot within a quiet cul-de-sac. With 583 sqft (54 sqm) of living space, this property presents potential for expansion through permitted development (STPP), adding significant value. The entrance porch provides a welcoming space for shoes and coats, leading into a spacious living and dining area adorned with solid wood flooring that flows seamlessly into both bedrooms. The kitchen features modern base and eye-level units, equipped with an electric oven, a 4-ring gas hob with an extractor hood, and included appliances such as a Bosch dishwasher and washing machine. Two well-proportioned bedrooms come with custom-built sliding wardrobes, offering practical storage solutions. The bathroom has been thoughtfully updated with a contemporary three-piece suite complemented by stylish tiling and built-in shelving. An inner hallway includes shelving recesses and provides access to a partially boarded loft equipped with lighting and a pull-down ladder. This loft space houses a Vaillant combi-boiler and also offers further possibilities for extension. The property's exterior is equally appealing, featuring a driveway leading to a single garage complete with power, lighting, and eaves storage. The front garden is bordered by a wall and contains well-maintained shrubs. The private rear garden extends approximately 14.6m x 10.1m, presenting a tranquil outdoor space enhanced by mature fruit trees, shrubs, and the added bonus of secure gated access. Located just off Northfield Avenue in Cobholm Place, the bungalow offers convenient access to major transport routes including the A14/M11 networks. Cambridge North Station is approximately 1.6 miles away, while the Guided Busway is just half a mile from the property. Nearby amenities include shopping facilities and local schooling options, with Tesco superstore located only 1.7 miles from your doorstep. With no onward chain, this property not only holds immediate comfort but also substantial potential for those looking to invest or make their mark through renovations.
