About
8 Arden Road is a two-bedroom terraced house in a leafy residential position in north Cambridge, with a modest enclosed frontage, a private rear garden and off-street parking for two cars to the rear.
It is a practical, sensibly arranged home of about 741 sq. ft., well suited to buyers looking for manageable accommodation, genuine outside space and straightforward access to this side of the city.
The ground floor is centred on a long sitting/dining room, giving enough depth to create separate areas for relaxing and eating without losing the connection between them.
The staircase sits within the room and the layout is easy to understand, with the kitchen set to the rear where it connects naturally with the garden.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, an integrated oven and hob, space for appliances and a door through to the conservatory.
This additional space looks onto the garden and gives useful flexibility, whether used as a small seating area, a place for coats and shoes, or simply as a light transition between indoors and outside.
Upstairs, the plan provides two double bedrooms and a bathroom fitted with a bath and shower over.
The accommodation is uncomplicated and efficient, with little wasted space and enough flexibility for a guest room, nursery or home-working arrangement, depending on the buyer’s needs.
The rear garden is a clear strength of the house.
It is enclosed and neatly arranged, with a central lawn, planted borders, a path and a shed, giving a pleasant outdoor space that feels usable without being difficult to maintain.
Beyond the garden, there is off-street parking for two cars, an important practical advantage in this part of Cambridge.
Arden Road is well placed for north Cambridge living, particularly for those needing access to the Science Park, Cambridge North station, the river and cycle routes into the city.
It offers a more settled residential setting while keeping the principal employment areas and everyday Cambridge amenities within sensible reach.
This is a straightforward, well-proportioned house with the combination of garden, parking and efficient accommodation that should make it a sound choice for buyers wanting practical Cambridge living.
