Close to Science Park and Cambridge North Station by bike
This spacious 4‑bedroom (plus loft) semi‑detached house sits on a generous corner plot just minutes from Cambridge Science Park and Cambridge North Station by bike. Extended by the current owners, the home features large, light-filled reception spaces, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room, and a versatile loft room ideal for a study or occasional bedroom. Solar panels reduce running costs and there is a garage with power and driveway parking.
The rear garden is notable: lawn, vegetable beds, mature fruit trees, patio and a productive grapevine, all enclosed for privacy. Internal highlights include a part‑vaulted living room with Velux windows, bay-fronted dining room, pantry, ground-floor study/bedroom 5 and plenty of eaves storage from the loft. Heating is gas boiler to radiators and double glazing is installed.
Important practical points: the house is a solid-brick build from the early 20th century and likely lacks cavity wall insulation; some modernisation may be required to improve thermal performance. Crime levels in the area are above average. Council tax is moderate and any significant alterations or extensions would need the usual planning permissions. The property is freehold and well suited to a growing family or professionals working at nearby employment hubs.
Overall this is a versatile family home with scope to update and personalise, strong commuting links, good local schools, off‑street parking and an attractive, productive garden — a practical buy for buyers wanting space close to Cambridge’s northern employment areas.
