Description

This substantial 1920s detached home, set within mature gardens, offers a unique opportunity to create your dream residence in one of the city's most sought-after areas. This much-loved family home is brimming with potential for those looking to modernise while retaining its charming period features.

Having been in the same family since 1977, the property showcases timeless 1920s character, including leaded windows, feature bay windows, and original fireplaces. Step through the entrance vestibule into a hallway with a cloakroom, leading to three principal reception rooms. The living room features a bay window recess and an original cast iron fuel burner, with double doors opening into the family room, where a large feature window frames picturesque views of the rear garden. With built-in storage, the dining room leads directly into what was once a kitchen/breakfast room, offering ample space and the potential to create a contemporary kitchen design.

The staircase, illuminated by a stunning stained leaded glass window, leads to a first floor landing that serves four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom suite. A family bathroom completes this level. Continuing to the second floor, you'll find two additional bedrooms, offering versatility as guest rooms, a home office, or creative spaces.

Outside
The property sits on a generous plot with a driveway leading to a single garage framed by mature trees and shrubs. The rear garden is an expansive haven, extensively laid to lawn, featuring an orchard and flower beds — ideal for keen gardeners or families seeking outdoor space.


Located on Long Road, just 2 miles from the city centre, the property is perfectly positioned. It's within easy reach of Addenbrooke's Hospital/Biomedical campus, Trumpington High Street (0.75 miles), with its range of local amenities, Waitrose supermarket, and excellent access to the M11 and surrounding areas. Cambridge mainline railway station offers frequent services to London Liverpool Street and King's Cross.
