About
To make an enquiry please click the email agent or request viewing button on the listing, this will allow us to respond to you as quickly as possible Mariott Drive sits quietly off the Cambridge Road in a neat cul-de-sac of similar homes, the kind of residential street that feels settled and considered, set back just enough from the main road to feel genuinely peaceful whilst remaining within a short walk of everything Ely has to offer.
This really well presented two bedroom home is a pleasure to walk into, modern, well maintained and easy to live in, with a layout that makes the most of every square foot without feeling tight or compromised.
The sitting room sets the tone with wood laminate flooring, built-in storage and French doors opening onto the enclosed rear garden giving the room both a practical edge and a natural connection to the outside.
The garden is enclosed, pretty and easy to maintain, a private outdoor space that works hard for its size and suits anyone who wants somewhere to sit outside and enjoy the warmer months without it becoming a weekend commitment.
The modern fitted kitchen is well specified and well laid out, and the overall ground floor flow works comfortably for daily living and relaxed entertaining in equal measure.
Upstairs, two good sized double bedrooms, one to the front aspect and one to the rear, and a family bathroom with shower over bath complete a first floor that is well proportioned and well considered.
Gas central heating and double glazing throughout keep the home comfortable and efficient year round, and two allocated parking spaces sit conveniently to the property.
The location is one of the home's strongest assets.
The city centre, the weekly markets, the riverside, the cathedral and the mainline station are all within a comfortable walk, placing London King's Cross at around seventy minutes and Cambridge under twenty on a direct service, without the need to get in the car to reach the platform.
