Pemberton TerraceCambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB2 1JA

Petersham House is a large end of terrace townhouse, minutes from the historic centre of Cambridge. Dating back to the late 1800s, the property was designed by award winning local architect Richard Reynolds Rowe, who was also responsible for design of the historic Cambridge Corn Exchange. The property is distinguished by its high ceilings, warm wood tones and original handcrafted features. High bay windows bring an abundance of natural light and scale. The property is arranged over four floors with stripped wood flooring and original oak staircases running throughout. An attractive south facing courtyard garden is surrounded by mature trees, with a garage providing off street parking. The property's distinctive height brings rooftop views across Cambridge.

The property is entered on St Eligius Street via a set of stone steps leading to a panelled and stained glass inlay front door. The property opens up into a bright hallway with high ceilings and wood floors. To the right is an exceptional drawing room with tall bay windows, picture rails, intricate cornicing, ceiling rose and an attractive fireplace with marble surround. To the left is an elegant reception room overlooking the garden.

To the lower ground floor there is a kitchen with garden access, large utility room and a family breakfast room with an attractive Inglenook fireplace and original parquet flooring. Please note that there is a bressummer hood in the Inglenook.

To the first floor there are two spacious and well proportioned bedrooms, a large family bathroom with a corner bath and twin sinks, and a WC. On the second floor there are two further similarly sized bedrooms and a large bathroom with a bath and an overhead shower. The property also benefits from a partially restored loft space.
