An attractive bay-fronted Victorian home of 1372 sqft / 127 sqm with a south-facing garden, a short walk from Jesus Green & the city centre, enjoying a prominent position in this friendly neighbourhood.

No. 81 Victoria Road is a well-presented, double-bay Victorian terraced house of brick elevations under a slate roof, dating back to 1888. The property has been thoughtfully extended and designed with modern living in mind and has a delightful private south-facing garden. The house forms part of a friendly community situated opposite Victoria Park, a 4-minute cycle from Jesus Green and just 7 minutes from Cambridge Market Square.

The property is entered via a stained glass door with fanlight over, leading to an entrance hall, which has understairs storage and stairs to the first floor, finished with original wood flooring, which continues through to the main reception room. There is a bay-fronted living room with a feature fireplace, contrasted by an attractive surround and tiled hearth. An adjoining dining room benefits from southerly aspects and has a serving hatch to the kitchen. There is a study and a shower room including a low-level W.C. Completing the ground-floor accommodation is a kitchen, which has been fitted with solid wood units and finished with granite worktops; integrated appliances include a double oven and a four-ring gas hob with an extractor over.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are arranged over two floors, the first housing beds 1 and 2 and a large bathroom, which benefits from a dual aspect and has a modern four-piece suite including a delightful roll-top bath. Bedroom 2 has a cast-iron fireplace and the bay-fronted master bedroom has comprehensive built-in cupboards. Stairs from the landing lead up to bedroom 3, which also has a feature fireplace and exposed beams.
