About
Tucked away in a small cul-de-sac on the edge of Cherry Hinton, this well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home offers practical family accommodation, generous parking and a detached garden office that provides valuable additional space for home working, hobbies or business use.
Backing onto mature trees, the setting feels notably private while remaining well placed for access to Addenbrooke’s Hospital, the Biomedical Campus, arm, Marshall and the wider road network.
The accommodation extends to just over 1,040 sq ft and has been thoughtfully arranged for modern living.
The sitting room is a comfortable, well-proportioned space centred around a fireplace and benefits from good natural light from the front aspect.
To the rear, the kitchen and dining room forms the heart of the home, offering ample storage, extensive work surfaces and space for family dining, with windows overlooking the garden and direct access outside.
A cloakroom and useful utility cupboard complete the ground floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The principal bedroom includes a dedicated dressing area with fitted storage, while the second bedroom benefits from twin rooflights and built-in wardrobes.
The bathroom is naturally lit by a rooflight and fitted with a bath and shower over.
Throughout, the property is presented in a clean, neutral style that allows a buyer to move straight in while retaining scope to personalise over time.
Outside, the property enjoys driveway parking behind double gates together with an EV charging point.
The rear garden is designed for ease of maintenance, with patio seating areas, lawn and established planting.
A particular feature is the substantial detached outbuilding, providing almost 250 sq ft of additional space.
Currently arranged as a home office with separate storage rooms, it offers genuine flexibility for those working remotely, running a business from home or seeking a studio, gym or creative workspace.
Dolphin Close is a quiet residential setting within Cherry Hinton, one of Cambridge’s most established and well-connected neighbourhoods.
The location provides convenient access to Addenbrooke’s Hospital, the Biomedical Campus, Cambridge city centre and the A14, while nearby shops, schools, green spaces and regular bus services support day-to-day living.
For buyers seeking a well-balanced family home with useful ancillary space and strong connectivity to Cambridge’s key employment centres, this is a property that warrants closer inspection.
