A compact, purpose-built one-bedroom apartment in CB4, established 2014 and configured for modern, low-maintenance living. The property is currently let to students and produces rental income of £1,000–£1,100 pcm (excluding bills), giving strong yield potential for investors or buy-to-let portfolios. The layout includes an open-plan living and fully integrated kitchen, a separate study ideal for remote work or additional storage, a double bedroom and a contemporary shower room.
Its central location near Cambridge city centre and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity make it especially suitable for students and professional renters. The building’s Victorian exterior provides street presence while the interior is contemporary with laminate flooring and double glazing. Council tax banding is low, and the apartment benefits from electric underfloor heating and insulated cavity walls, keeping running costs straightforward.
Key considerations: the property is leasehold and sold with sitting tenants, so purchasers must accept the existing tenancy. The immediate neighbourhood records above-average crime, and the apartment is small (approx. 390 sq ft), so it’s best suited to single occupiers or as a rental unit rather than a primary family home. Overall this is a practical, income-producing city-centre flat with minimal upkeep and clear appeal to student-focused landlords.
