40 Richmond Road is a single-fronted family home offering almost 1,100 sq ft of light-filled, flexible accomodation arranged over three floors. Configured to provide a practical and cohesive family and entertaining environment, it sensitively combines modern amenities, quality fixtures and fittings and elegant neutral decor with period features including sash glazing, high ceilings and some original joinery throughout.

The accomodation flows from a welcoming, wooden-floored reception hall with stairs rising to the first floor. It includes an open-plan, dual-aspect sitting and dining room extending to almost 27 ft in length, offering flexibility to configure the space to the purchasers' own requirements. The room has a front aspect bay window, exposed wooden flooring and a feature fireplace with wood burning stove, flanked on each side by bespoke shelving. A door opens to a spacious dual aspect kitchen/breakfast room with feature exposed brick flooring throughout. The kitchen has a range of wall and base units, complementary wooden worktops, tiled splashbacks, modern integrated appliances and a door to the side terrace. It opens into a part-vaulted breakfast area with three windows overlooking the terrace and rear garden beyond, space for a sizeable table and French doors to a side terrace.

On the first floor the property provides a generous principal bedroom with a front aspect bay window, two further well-proportioned rear aspect bedrooms, a family bathroom and useful cloakroom. A separate staircase rising from the landing gives access to the vaulted second floor. It houses the property's remaining double bedroom, which has eaves storage and Velux glazing, flooding the room with natrual light.

Set behind low-level walling topped by iron railings and having plenty of kerb appeal, the property is accessed through a wrought iron pedestrian gate over a low-maintenance lawned front garden and a paved path leading to the front door. Accessible over a side road, a shared access area leads to double wooden gates, which open to woodchipped bike and storage area with a pedestrian gate to the part-walled South-East facing garden. It is laid to lawn bordered by well-stocked flower and shrub beds and features a wraparound paved terrace accessible from the kitchen/breakfast room and a further paved terrace/barbecue area at the end of the garden, both ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.

The property is located in a sought-after residential area to the north of Cambridge city centre, within easy reach of local amenities including Co-op and Aldi supermarkets and primary schooling. Cambridge offers comprehensive high street and boutique shopping, cafes, bars, restaurants, and extensive cultural and leisure facilities. Transportation links are excellent: the A14 and M11 give access to major regional centres and the motorway network, and Cambridge mainline station (3.1 miles) offers regular services to London Kings Cross and Liverpool Street (from 53 and 68 minutes respectively).
