Light-filled contemporary living with private mooring and excellent commuter links.
Five bedrooms with principal en suite and private balcony
This contemporary five-bedroom detached house sits directly on the River Cam, built in 2017 and finished to a high specification. The open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room opens via full-height frameless bi-fold doors onto a large decked terrace, creating an exceptional indoor–outdoor entertaining space and uninterrupted southerly views over Stourbridge Common. The Porcelanosa kitchen with Miele integrated appliances, underfloor heating to the ground floor and A-rated fittings underline the property’s modern credentials.
The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room and a private balcony; there are four further bedrooms and three additional bath/shower rooms (two en suite), making this layout well suited to a family or professionals who need flexible space. First-floor balconies feature structural glass and stainless-steel balustrades, and many rooms take advantage of deep glazed windows for excellent daylighting.
Practical strengths include off-street parking with a carport and storeroom, river mooring, low-energy lighting and high-efficiency double glazing. The location is convenient for Cambridge North station (approx. 0.5 miles) and Cambridge city centre (approx. 1.5 miles), with nearby schools rated Good and strong local amenities.
Important considerations: the property sits immediately beside the river and is in a high flood-risk area; this will affect insurance costs and may require continued flood mitigation and management. Private outdoor space is relatively shallow due to the riverside setting, and council tax is described as quite expensive. Buyers should factor these issues into ongoing ownership costs and suitability for their needs.
