**open home viewing Saturday 18th July 10:30AM** Take a look at the 360 virtual tour to fully appreciate the space and quality of this beautiful family home!

A beautifully presented 1930s semi-detached home offering the perfect blend of period character, stylish renovation and everyday family practicality, set in a brilliantly convenient Cambridge location.

This is a home that feels ready from the moment you step through the door.

The current owners have renovated the property to an excellent standard, creating a warm, elegant and genuinely turnkey home while retaining the charm that makes these 1930s semis so popular.

High ceilings, bay windows, ceiling roses, cornicing, character fireplaces, bay windows and exposed wooden floors all sit comfortably alongside a stunning contemporary kitchen, modern bathroom and tasteful decoration throughout.

The ground floor begins with a welcoming entrance hall with useful downstairs WC, as well as an understairs cupboard providing handy everyday storage.

To the front, the dining room is a lovely characterful space with a bay window, stripped wooden flooring and a bespoke built-in window seat with a handmade cushion and plenty of storage beneath.

It is ideal for family meals, entertaining or as a second reception space.

To the rear, the spacious living room is a superb family room, full of natural light and complete with wood burner, creating a cosy focal point for winter evenings.

French doors open directly onto the garden, making the room work beautifully in the summer months too. The kitchen has been finished to a high standard and is a real standout feature.

Stylish cabinetry, clean work surfaces, metro tiling, integrated appliances, induction hob, Bluetooth extractor fan, underfloor heating and excellent natural light combine to create a space that feels both smart and practical.

The fully electric Velux roof window is a great touch, bringing in even more light and fresh air at the push of a button.

French doors lead straight out to the patio and garden, making it ideal for families, entertaining and easy indoor-outdoor living.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three genuine double bedrooms, a major advantage for growing families or those needing space to work from home.

The principal bedroom is a generous room with a beautiful bay window and bespoke built-in wardrobes, while the second bedroom is another excellent double. The third bedroom is also a proper double.

The bathroom is another real highlight, beautifully finished with underfloor heating, a freestanding bath, large walk-in shower, modern tiling and a bright, stylish feel.

The home also benefits from a boarded loft space, providing excellent storage, with potential to extend the living accommodation into the loft space, subject to the necessary permissions and consents.

Outside, the rear garden is private, generous and wonderfully suited to family life.

There are two porcelain-tiled patio areas, including a recently laid hard-wearing porcelain stone patio immediately off the house, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Beyond this is a long lawn, mature planting, a pond, small greenhouse and plenty of space for children and pets.

There is also a second concrete base at the top right of the garden, created for a larger greenhouse and currently finished with astroturf.

The garden has been carefully set up for practical outdoor living too, with an outside tap, external electric socket points and electricity running up the garden for outdoor lighting.

To the side of the house is a large purpose-built wood store, perfect for keeping the wood burner stocked without the usual soggy-log drama.

The detached garage sits to the side/rear and benefits from power, lighting and a full width electric roller door.

To the front, the property provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles, with the current owners parking three cars.

The total floor area is approximately 119.8m2 / 1289 sqft including the garage, giving the home excellent overall space and flexibility.

Excellent Location Perne Road is a highly convenient Cambridge location, especially for families wanting easy access to the city, schools, green spaces, shops and transport links.

The property is well placed for Cambridge city centre, Cambridge railway station and the wider south/east side of the city, making it ideal for buyers who want Cambridge convenience without sacrificing garden space and proper family accommodation.

Cambridge train station is under 2 miles away, with services to London King’s Cross in under 50 minutes as well as routes to Liverpool Street.

The wider Perne Road area is also well served by local bus stops, including Brookfields and Birdwood Road.

The newly opened Cambridge South station adds another major advantage for this side of the city, providing direct rail access to the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, with services towards London, Stansted and Birmingham, and up to nine trains an hour.

It is also particularly convenient for Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Royal Papworth Hospital, The Rosie Hospital and the wider Biomedical Campus.

This is a major employment and research hub, home to world class healthcare, science and medical organisations, with AstraZeneca, Addenbrooke’s, Royal Papworth and the wider life sciences sector all helping make this one of Cambridge’s most important growth areas.

For buyers working at the Biomedical Campus, the Business Park, Science Park or other major Cambridge employment hubs, the location offers strong city wide connectivity.

For schools, the area is particularly attractive.

Nearby options include Queen Emma Primary School, rated Good by Ofsted following its June 2023 inspection, and Queen Edith Primary School, also rated Good following its July 2023 inspection.

St Bede’s Inter-Church School on Birdwood Road is a major local draw for secondary education and was rated Outstanding by Ofsted following its June 2024 inspection.

Everyday amenities are close at hand, with local shops, cafés, supermarkets, parks, leisure facilities and Cambridge’s wider range of restaurants, independent shops and cultural attractions all within easy reach.

Families will also appreciate the access to green spaces and cycle routes, with Cambridge’s well established cycling network making the city, station and surrounding areas highly accessible.

In short, this is a superb family home in a location that makes day-to-day life easy: School runs, commuting, city centre trips, weekend walks, garden entertaining and family living all work here without the usual Cambridge compromise.
