Set over two floors, this chain-free two-bedroom maisonette offers a practical first purchase or buy-to-let close to central Cambridge. The layout includes a generous living room, separate dining space, a small but workable kitchen and a private sun terrace that extends living outdoors in fair weather. Two double bedrooms occupy the upper floor; built-in storage helps keep the rooms uncluttered.
The property is leasehold with 93 years remaining, a service charge around £700 and a ground rent currently listed at £700 — buyers should factor ongoing leasehold costs into budgets. The kitchen and bathroom are functional but dated and would benefit from cosmetic modernisation to unlock full value. Heating is gas-fired via a boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed (installation date unknown).
Located just off Histon Road, the maisonette sits in a well-connected area with good access to local schools, shops and regular bus routes to the city and Cambridge North. Permit on-street parking serves residents. The neighbourhood is lively and predominantly private-renting; crime rates are above average, so consider security measures. Overall this is a straightforward, affordable entry into Cambridge with clear potential for uplift through refurbishment.
