A well-presented two-bedroom first-floor flat in the popular Cambanks development, offered with no onward chain and an exceptionally long lease (over 950 years). The bright open-plan kitchen/living/dining area has large dual-aspect windows that overlook well-maintained communal gardens, creating a light, airy living space. The modern kitchen includes oven, gas hob and space for appliances, while built-in storage sits in both double bedrooms.
Practical transport and local access are major strengths: it’s only a six-minute cycle to Cambridge North, with easy reach of the Science Park, Business Park and local shops. Gas central heating, double glazing and a secure communal entrance add everyday comfort and security. The flat’s 645 sq ft layout suits a couple, small family or a professional sharers setup.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with an annual service charge of around £1,920 and council tax described as affordable. Accommodation is on the first floor with communal stairs (no lift) and the property dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so while it is well presented many buyers may prefer cosmetic updating to suit personal taste. There is a single bathroom and a fire escape accessed from the second bedroom.
Overall this flat offers straightforward, low-risk ownership — long lease, no chain and a strong commuter location — with potential to personalise the interiors to increase future value.
