Description

This two-bedroom semi-detached property presents a unique investment opportunity in a sought-after location, conveniently nestled near the River Cam and local amenities, while being within easy reach of Cambridge city centre. The home is set on a generous plot that includes off-road parking and a spacious garden, which offers potential for further development subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions. Upon entering, you are greeted by an entrance hall that leads to the main living areas. The front dining room features a bay window, providing ample natural light, while the comfortable rear living room offers direct access to the garden through patio doors. The kitchen is fitted with practical units and integrated appliances, complemented by a useful pantry and ground floor WC. On the first floor, you will find two well-proportioned double bedrooms along with a contemporary family bathroom and an office space ideal for remote working. The external area boasts a sizeable rear garden primarily laid to lawn with patio seating and mature planting, alongside a large timber shed. An important note is that the property underwent partial underpinning with resin injection in 2010; documentation from structural surveyors confirms effective ground stabilization has been achieved. Garlic Row's prime location east of Cambridge city centre means you have easy access to local amenities as well as riverside pathways leading into both the city and surrounding countryside. This blend of urban convenience and outdoor lifestyle makes it an appealing choice for families or commuters needing nearby transport links such as Cambridge North railway station and major road routes like the A14.
