Set on a generous 0.18-acre plot overlooking Girton Golf Club, this 1960s detached home offers 1,227 sq ft of adaptable family accommodation across two floors. Three reception rooms — including a conservatory with a replaced composite roof — plus a light kitchen/dining area and utility create flexible living space for family life and entertaining. The mature rear garden, fruit trees and patio are a major draw for outdoor enjoyment and gardening.
The first floor provides three bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes, and a recently replaced shower room with walk-in shower and vanity. Practical features include gas central heating to radiators, double glazing and an integral garage with driveway parking. There is clear scope to modernise interiors and to extend (subject to planning), which will appeal to buyers wanting to add value or tailor the home to growing needs.
Important considerations: the property dates from the mid-1960s and shows areas that would benefit from updating rather than full refurbishment. The EPC rating is D (67) and cavity walls are recorded with no added insulation (assumed), so buyers should expect potential energy-efficiency improvements. There is a brook at the rear of the plot and the listing records a high surface-water flooding risk — this should be checked with insurers and the local authority before purchase.
Located two miles northwest of Cambridge, Girton provides strong local schooling, easy access to Huntingdon Road and Cambridge North by bike, and nearby shops in Eddington and Histon Road. This is a straightforward freehold purchase with no onward chain, geared to families or buyers seeking a renovation project on a large suburban plot with extension potential.
