Set on a corner plot in a popular Histon Road neighbourhood, this three-bedroom semi offers clear scope to create a comfortable family home. The house extends to about 875 sq ft, with a detached single garage, off-street parking and a west-facing rear garden. It sits in the catchment for Mayfield Primary and Chesterton Community College, making it attractive to families.
The property requires cosmetic and some updating work: the bathroom and WC are dated and the layout would benefit from reconfiguration to achieve a more open-plan living and kitchen arrangement. Practical improvements are partially in place — a new boiler was installed two years ago, modern uPVC front and rear doors are fitted and double glazing is throughout, reducing immediate major-service needs.
Internally the home has two double bedrooms with fitted cupboards and a versatile third bedroom suitable as a nursery or home office. Ground floor accommodation includes an entrance hall with cloakroom, a galley kitchen with pantry, and a dual-aspect living/dining room with sliding patio doors to the garden. The layout allows for straightforward extensions or re-planning, subject to consents, to increase living space.
Overall this freehold house represents a renovation opportunity in a well-connected part of Cambridge: close to shops, good bus links on Histon Road, and local schools. Buyers should budget for modernisation works to bathrooms, kitchen and decorative updating to realise the home’s full potential.
