Beautiful semi-detached Victorian home
This exceptional Victorian semi-detached house blends classic charm with contemporary elegance to create an exceptional home, situated on a popular road just 0.4 miles away from Cambridge station which provides regular services to London and Stansted airports.. It features a distinctive double-fronted square bay and is approached via a gravel driveway offering off street parking behind a privet hedge.
Upon entering through a panelled front door you are welcomed into a charming vestibule with views beyond the hall to the kitchen and garden beyond. To the left, the impressive square bay-fronted drawing room is filled with natural light through large sash windows, enhanced by original stained-glass panels, high ceilings with ornate cornicing and a woodburning stove with a wooden surround. This welcoming room is further enriched with bookshelves and storage on either side of the fire place. Beyond, there is a second reception room with garden access via French doors, picture rails, cornicing, and a feature fireplace with a painted wooden surround, making it perfect for relaxed family living or entertaining.
The heart of the home is the striking open-plan kitchen and dining area, which has been designed with both style and functionality in mind. The bespoke kitchen features sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a central island, while the adjoining dining space benefits from a stunning vaulted ceiling with skylights and large glazed bifold doors leading to the garden. The ground floor is completed by a WC and access to the basement, which includes a useful utility room and storage space.
The first floor offers well-appointed bedroom accommodation, with three generously sized bedrooms, including a principal suite that spans the full width of the house. The second bedroom benefits from built in storage and an en suite shower room. A modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms. The second floor features a further double bedroom alongside an additional office space, which could be used as a fifth bedroom if required. This floor also benefits from a useful storage area.
Externally, the beautifully landscaped rear garden is designed for ease of maintenance, featuring a paved terrace ideal for entertaining and well-stocked borders. The gardens can be accessed by the side of the house from the front or through the house.

There are so many things about this house that I love, but the kitchen/breakfast room really took my breath away. A beautiful room to have your morning coffee in.
