A compact, city-centre mews house situated in the Kite area, moments from Christ’s Pieces, Midsummer Common and Cambridge’s historic centre. The mid-terrace property offers three bedrooms, a light living/dining room and an integral garage with Elm Street access — rare for a central location. Gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C (70) give reasonable energy performance for this age of property. Sold freehold and with no onward chain, it suits a buyer wanting a swift move or a straightforward investment.
The house requires sympathetic modernisation throughout: bathroom tiling, some joinery and general fixtures are dated and the interior would benefit from refurbishment to maximise value. The footprint is modest (circa 775–776 sqft) with very limited private outdoor space; this is best for buyers seeking low-maintenance central living rather than large-family accommodation. Council Tax banding is above average for the area and local crime statistics are high; these are factual considerations for family buyers.
Key strengths are the central Kite-area address, garage and residents’ permit parking, good natural light and strong rental/sale demand for well-updated city properties. This is a practical starter home or investment project for someone prepared to update the finishes, or an owner-occupier who prioritises location and convenience over private garden space.
