A bay-fronted house with a stunning 82ft garden and off-street parking, situated in a peaceful residential cul-de-sac, 2 miles east of the city centre and 1.2 miles from Cambridge North Station.
This 1930’s semi-detached house has been exceptionally well cared for by its owners and enjoys a mature private garden measuring around 82ft (25.2m) x 27ft (8.2m). The property is gas-central heated and double-glazed throughout, offers a wealth of charming features and enjoys a quiet, near central cul-de-sac position just off Newmarket Road.
On the ground floor is a bay-fronted living room with a feature fireplace, contrasted by exposed brickwork and a Bressummer beam. The room is finished with original wood floor, which continues through to a bright kitchen/dining room, which has been fitted with a sympathetic and attractive range of units; integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, oven and a four-ring gas hob with an extractor over. There is a utility area adjacent to a door, which opens onto the private garden.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom, which has been fitted with a modern white suite including a separate bath and shower.
Outside, the front of the property is set back behind an open-plan garden and a useful driveway with a mature hedgerow. A side gate leads to the private rear garden, which has a patio, well suited to alfresco dining. The remainder is laid to lawn and has a variety of well stocked borders of various plants and shrubs and a gravelled seating area. There is also a brick-built garden / bike store, which could potentially be used as a work shop or converted into a home office or studio.
Location - Ditton Fields is conveniently located for access to the city centre, Grafton Centre, Newmarket Road and only 10 minutes' walk to the pleasant riverside open space of Stourbridge Common. The area is very practical being located within walking distance of a doctor’s surgery, a library, and many eateries. The Chisholm trail is also nearby and provides easy access to Cambridge North Station. There are additional amenities with Newmarket Road's major retail parks, supermarkets and leisure facilities nearby. There is primary schooling at The Galfrid Academy, which feeds into Coleridge Community College, which is part of the Parkside Federation.
The property is a mile from the historical village of Fen Ditton which has three public houses, including two gastro pubs, with The Plough having lovely views over the river Cam. Communications are excellent with regular bus services and plenty of cycle paths into the city. The A10/A14 road networks are also just a 5-minute drive away and provide easy access to the Cambridge Science Park.
