A substantial bay-fronted semi from 1912 set on a generous 0.17-acre plot, this four-bedroom home offers scope for family living close to Cambridge city centre. The property includes a double garage, driveway and a large private rear garden — ideal for outdoor play, gardening or an extension (STPP).
The house requires full modernisation: there is no central heating system in regular use, the oil-fired Aga only heats one bathroom radiator, and the EPC is currently G (19). Internal features such as bay windows, original fireplaces and high ceilings provide character and clear potential for sympathetic updating to create comfortable modern accommodation.
Practical details are straightforward: freehold, chain free and well placed for local schools, Cambridge North station and the Science Park. Mains gas is connected for anyone choosing to install a new central heating system. Buyers should expect renovation costs, possible wall insulation works (solid-brick construction assumed) and to buy fixtures/fittings unless stated otherwise.
For families seeking space and future expansion in a well-served north-Cambridge location, this house is a rare plot-led opportunity. Investors or builders will also find potential for value uplift after modernisation or extension, subject to planning consent.
