About
Occupying a substantial plot extending to approximately 0.17 acres, this established three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a rare combination of a highly convenient city location and a remarkably generous garden.
Positioned on the favoured southern side of Cambridge, the property provides well-balanced accommodation of around 868 sq ft and presents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a home with scope to update and adapt over time.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and retains a practical layout well suited to everyday living.
The sitting room sits at the front of the property, while a separate dining room provides a more formal space for family meals and entertaining.
To the rear, the kitchen connects directly with a conservatory overlooking the garden, creating a pleasant additional reception area and ensuring a strong relationship between the house and its outside space.
A ground floor bathroom completes the accommodation on this level. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a particularly generous principal bedroom extending across the front of the house.
The remaining bedrooms offer flexibility for children, guests or home working, depending on individual requirements. The defining feature of the property is undoubtedly the outside space.
The plot extends significantly beyond the rear of the house, with a long, mature garden that has been carefully planted over many years.
Established trees, shrubs and flowering borders create a private and attractive setting, while the overall depth of the garden provides opportunities that are increasingly difficult to find within the city.
To the rear of the plot sits a large outbuilding/workshop, offering useful storage and potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents.
To the front, a driveway provides off-street parking. Cromwell Road is a well-established residential address in a highly accessible part of Cambridge.
The location places residents within easy reach of Cambridge Railway Station, Addenbrooke’s Hospital, the Biomedical Campus and the city centre, while nearby shops, parks and everyday amenities support day-to-day convenience.
The area continues to attract buyers seeking strong connectivity alongside the character and maturity of an established neighbourhood.
For purchasers looking for a property with a substantial garden, future potential and a location that remains consistently popular with both owner-occupiers and investors, this represents an increasingly uncommon opportunity in the Cambridge market.
