About
Tenure: Leasehold 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 Winfarthing Court occupies one of the most convenient positions in Ely, sitting comfortably between the city centre and the mainline railway station, with both within easy walking distance of the front door.
For a professional couple or commuter, that combination of city centre amenities and direct rail access to London and Cambridge is a significant part of what makes this well-presented two bedroom first floor flat worth serious consideration.
The flat is well laid out and makes good use of the available space throughout.
The kitchen and dining area is a generous and practical space with room for a proper dining table alongside all the everyday kitchen essentials, a layout that works well for couples and those who like to eat properly rather than balanced on the sofa.
The sitting room is bright and well-proportioned, a comfortable space for relaxing or having people round that benefits from good natural light.
The principal bedroom is a comfortable double, and the second bedroom works equally well as a single room or a dedicated home office for those working from home, a flexibility that is increasingly useful.
The bathroom with shower over bath is well finished and serves the flat comfortably. An allocated parking space is included in the let, a genuinely useful provision given the central location.
The mainline railway station is within easy walking distance, placing London King's Cross at around seventy minutes on a direct service and Cambridge under twenty minutes.
Ely's weekly Thursday, Saturday and Sunday markets, independent shops, riverside restaurants and cafés are all a short walk away, and the city's food and drink scene; from Draymond Sons' craft ales on Fore Hill to the Poets House, the Almonry and a growing collection of independent eateries, is well within reach for evenings and weekends.
Jubilee Gardens and the riverside provide accessible green space and outdoor leisure without the need to travel.
