This link-detached family home is located within the highly sought after area of Cherry Hinton and within striking distance of Addenbrookes Hospital, ARM, schooling and an array of shops and local amenities. Easily accessible to the A14/M11 and a regular bus service into central Cambridge.
Occupying a corner plot position within this residential cul-de-sac, this substantially extended property offers spacious and versatile accommodation which should appeal to buyers looking for an annexe area for a member of the family or possibly as a further source of income. The property is current arranged as a 4 bedroom main residence with one bedroom attached annexe but could easily be reconfigured to create a 5 bedroom detached home.
The property has undergone a rolling program of improvements (new kitchen in 2022 and new shower rooms from 2021) and also benefits from solar panels to the roof including a battery storage system.
Externally the property offers a low-maintenance rear garden with paved side area and a further low maintenance landscaped front garden with ample off road parking as well as an attached garage.
