The ground-floor accommodation is particularly versatile. A welcoming entrance hall leads to the principal sitting room, a bright and well-proportioned space with a period fireplace and a large window providing good natural light. Beyond is a separate dining room, again with an attractive fireplace and useful fitted shelving.
To the rear, the kitchen/breakfast room with a brick and pamment floor extends to approximately 20'5" in length and provides direct access to the garden. This excellent scope for refurbishment and, subject to the necessary consents, possible reconfiguration to create a more contemporary family living space.
On the first floor are three bedrooms arranged around a central landing. The principal bedroom is especially generous, measuring approximately 12'2" x 15'2", with the original fireplace and two windows creating a particularly light and airy room. There are two further bedrooms, one of which has built-in storage cupboards and retains a charming period fireplace, and the family bathroom, which has a shower over the bath.
Outside, the property enjoys an established and secluded rear garden, with a paved terrace immediately adjoining the house and a lawn beyond. Mature trees, shrubs and planting provide a pleasingly leafy setting and a good degree of privacy. The property benefits from a right of way, providing access to garden. The front of the property is set back from the road and pavement behind a low-rise wall and shallow garden.
Ainsworth Street is a particularly desirable neighbourhood in the highly regarded Petersfield wards. It is conveniently situated between Sleaford Street and Hooper Street, around a mile east of the city centre with its combination of ancient and modern buildings, winding lanes, excellent choice of schools and wide range of shopping facilities.
The property is a 10 minute walk from Cambridge Railway Station with direct links to London. Mill Road, The Grafton, Beehive Shopping Centres and Cambridge Retail Park are also a short walk away. The city centre is reached by foot in just 20 minutes.
Schooling is excellent and the area falls within the catchment of St Matthew's Primary School whilst secondary provision is at Parkside Community College, which is Ofsted rated as 'outstanding'.
