A well-located, modern two-bedroom terraced house in the heart of Cambridge, offered with no onward chain and clear rental potential. The property presents two double bedrooms, a sitting/dining room with patio doors to a small enclosed garden, and a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances — a practical layout that suits buy-to-let investors or professionals seeking central city living.
The location is the key asset: under half a mile from Cambridge city centre, a short walk to the Grafton Centre and Christ’s Pieces, and within easy reach of bus links and the mainline railway. The property includes secure off-street parking — a scarce advantage in this area — plus a timber shed and rear access from the garden.
Constructed in the late 1990s in a mock-Georgian style, the house is generally well presented but offers scope for updating to increase appeal and rental income. Note the home has secondary glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators; walls are cavity insulated (assumed). The compact footprint (circa 667 sq ft) suits small households or a two-bed rental target market.
Be clear on the main drawbacks: the plot is small, council tax is above average, and local crime levels are recorded as very high — factors that will affect tenant demand and premium. There is also scope for cosmetic modernisation to maximise value. Overall, this is a convenient central property with immediate let-or-live-in potential and a straightforward ownership position (freehold, no onward chain).
