Bright, modern and well-proportioned, this one-bedroom apartment occupies a first-floor position in a 2014 development close to Addenbrooke's and central Cambridge. The open-plan living area opens onto a private balcony, creating a light, practical layout that suits a professional or first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance city living. Allocated off-street parking and a long lease give added convenience and security.
The apartment measures around 489 sq ft and includes a double bedroom, contemporary bathroom and a neatly arranged kitchen. The building’s EPC rating is C (76), and the home benefits from double glazing and modern finishes typical of a 2014 build. Nearby guided bus and cycle routes provide direct, low-stress travel into the city and to the mainline station.
Buyers should note the ongoing costs: an annual service charge of approximately £2,122 and a ground rent of £250. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, and while the property is low-risk for flooding and in an affluent, low-crime area, those needing very fast home internet should check providers before committing. The lease has 238 years remaining.
This apartment suits someone wanting a ready-to-live-in, low-upkeep base with good transport links and local amenities. It also offers straightforward rental potential for investors, though service charges and broadband limitations are practical points to factor into monthly costs and tenant appeal.
