Summary - Cherry Trees Apartments Coldhams Lane, Cambridge CB1 3JT
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Low-maintenance city pad with parking and communal garden, ideal for new buyers.
Approx 342 sq ft (compact one-bedroom)
A compact, modern one-bedroom apartment built in 2020, offering efficient open-plan living over approximately 342 sq ft. The apartment sits within a contemporary development on Coldhams Lane and benefits from an allocated parking space and access to a communal garden, making it a straightforward, low-hassle home for a single occupant or couple.
Practical ownership features include a long lease (247 years remaining), nominal ground rent, and a predictable annual service charge of £1,140. The interior is well presented with fitted kitchen appliances, an enclosed bedroom with built-in wardrobe, and a shower bathroom. Communal spaces and landscaped grounds are well maintained and contribute to a quiet, green setting close to city amenities.
Notable practical considerations: heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more expensive than gas systems, and broadband speeds are reported as slow. The apartment is small, so storage and entertaining space are limited. Council tax is described as cheap, and mobile signal is excellent, which supports remote working if broadband needs are addressed.
This property will suit a first-time buyer seeking a low-maintenance urban base or an investor targeting a compact rental in Cambridge. The long lease and recent construction reduce immediate maintenance risks, but factor in running costs for electric heating and the service charge when assessing value.
