Description

This charming three-bedroom semi-detached house, dating back to the 1930s, is nestled in a quiet area of Glebe Road, which is known for its family-friendly atmosphere and strong community spirit. The property spans 842 sq ft (78 sq m) over two levels and consists of a bright living room featuring a classic bay window, a spacious dining room ideal for family meals, and a modern kitchen that opens to the rear garden. The first floor accommodates three generously sized bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom. A significant advantage of this home is the ample rear garden, currently designed with low-maintenance block paving and artificial turf, making it perfect for gatherings or relaxing outdoors. Given the extent of the plot and layout of the current structure, there is notable potential for extending the property (subject to obtaining planning permission), as evidenced by neighboring homes that have successfully enhanced their spaces. To the front, you will find an attractive garden area alongside a long driveway accommodating multiple vehicles. This residence presents an exceptional opportunity not only to live in a desirable Cambridge locale but also to invest in enhancing its value through careful renovations. Convenient transport links are just moments away, ensuring easy access to the city centre, Addenbrooke's Hospital, and local schools both primary and secondary.
