This charming Victorian home occupies a superb, sought-after location just northwest of the city centre, close to Fitzwilliam College and Castle Hill. The property has been subject to various improvement works in recent years and is presented in good order. It is arranged over three floors and benefits from a wealth of light throughout, along with a number of period features.
On the ground floor, the entrance hall has attractive corbels, stairs to the first floor and access to the principal rooms. The living/dining room benefits from a dual aspect and an attractive feature fireplace (not currently used). At the rear of the property, the kitchen/breakfast room also has a dual aspect and includes a range of fitted units with granite-effect worktops, an integrated electric oven and hob with an extractor chimney over, space for a fridge/freezer, plumbing for a washing machine, a combination boiler and a side door to the rear garden.
On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms; the front bedroom includes fitted wardrobes. The stylish family bathroom is partly tiled and fitted with a four-piece suite including a bath, separate shower cubicle, a wash basin, WC and a heated towel rail. On the top (second) floor, there is a further double bedroom, which has pleasant views to the rear and access to storage eaves.
Outside, the property is set back from the pavement behind a small garden with a picket fence. Gated pedestrian access leads to the generous, low-maintenance rear garden, which is partly paved, partly graveled, with boundary fencing, timber shed and mature trees nearby.
Canterbury Street is a sought-after and quiet street, which runs between Histon Road and Halifax Road and is close to both Murray Edwards and Fitzwilliam College. The city centre, many colleges and facilities offered by the university are within walking or cycling distance. The area boasts excellent local facilities including local shops, parks, schools and a regular bus service into the city centre.
The location is ideal for anyone wanting easy access to the city centre or to the A14 which links on to the region’s main commuter routes and mainline railway station to London's King's Cross and Liverpool Street.
