Description

This end-terrace three-bedroom house presents a significant opportunity for renovation and personalization. While the property has well-proportioned living spaces, it is now in need of updates to fully maximize its potential. Located approximately 1.5 miles north of Cambridge city centre, Borrowdale is a sought-after residential area with convenient local amenities such as shops, schools, and easy transport links including access to the Science & Business Parks and Cambridge North railway station. The layout includes an entrance hallway leading to a utility room and a kitchen that offers a range of fitted units. The spacious sitting/dining room opens directly to the rear garden, providing a great space for entertaining or relaxing. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a shower room that could benefit from modernisation. Outside, the property features both front and private back gardens, alongside an attached garage. This residence is offered with no upward chain and holds considerable potential for those looking to invest in a project that can be tailored to their tastes.
