This attractive late Victorian mid-terrace house on Priory Road is perfectly placed for scenic river walks into the city centre and feeds into well-regarded schools for primary and secondary education.
The property has been extended, and improvements have been made in recent years, which include replacement roofs and double-glazed windows to the rear. The property offers excellent scope for further expansion to the side and a loft conversion (subject to the necessary planning consents).
The accommodation retains original period features and is found in good decorative order throughout. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a front sitting room with a bay window connecting to a dining room with a sash window overlooking the rear aspect, original recess cabinetry and a concealed storage cupboard. A well-equipped kitchen opens into the breakfast room/study extension, which provides access to the rear garden.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to three spacious bedrooms, two of which feature original fireplaces that serve as elegant focal points. The floor is completed by a family bathroom and a separate WC.
Outside
The property boasts a small walled front garden with space for bicycle storage. To the rear, the garden is a particular highlight: a paved patio leads to a lawned area with well-established borders, productive fruit trees and raised beds. A second seating area at the end of the garden provides the perfect spot for evening sun and alfresco dining. Two garden sheds provide ample storage.
Priory Road forms part of the popular Riverside area, conveniently situated a short stroll from the south bank of the River Cam, located less than a mile from the city centre with its combination of ancient and modern buildings, winding lanes, excellent choice of schools and wide range of shopping facilities.
Both Midsummer and Stourbridge Commons are situated nearby, as well as Cambridge North Railway Station with regular services to London King's Cross. Cambridge main railway station is just 30 minutes to walk, or via regular buses into town from Newmarket Road roundabout. There is a wide range of local facilities including a Tesco Superstore, gym and two out-of-town retail parks close-by and also local shopping on Burleigh & Fitzroy Street, which offers a vast range of shops, bars and restaurants.
Schooling is available at St Matthew's Primary School with secondary provision at Parkside Community College, which are Ofsted rated as 'good' and 'outstanding' respectively.
