Description

This semi-detached 3-bedroom home presents a promising opportunity for investment and renovation enthusiasts. Boasting a generous 65ft rear garden and a double garage, the property is ideally positioned for potential expansion, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Spanning over 828 sqft, the house features double glazing and gas central heating throughout. The layout includes a welcoming entrance hall with practical under-stair storage, leading into an open plan living/dining area enhanced by dual aspect windows and a charming bay window at the front. The kitchen, though functional, offers room for modernisation with its ample cabinets and workspace, and provides direct access to the garden. On the first floor, you will find three bedrooms—two spacious doubles including one with built-in wardrobes and delightful views of surrounding greenery, plus a comfortable single bedroom. The bathroom includes essential amenities such as a bath with shower attachment and heated towel rail, but could benefit from modern updates. The outdoor space is a significant highlight; set back from the road behind a low brick wall, it features lush grassed areas and provides off-street parking via the garage accessible from Cromwell Road. With power and lighting already installed in the garage, there’s potential to convert it into an annexe or additional living space. Additionally, secure access ensures privacy while enhancing practicality. Conveniently located near Cambridge's amenities including supermarkets and retail parks, this property holds substantial potential to create an ideal family residence or investment opportunity.
