3 Bed Cottage in Cambridge

About this property

This superb getaway, suitable for couples, friends or families, is located just off Mill Road, a vibrant area of Cambridge where you’ll find a great choice of independent shops, bars and restaurants. The train station is 1 mile away, and Addenbrooke’s is 2 miles away, making this a superbly convenient choice for anyone without a car or needing to visit the hospital. Walk less than a mile and you can enjoy the fresh air at Parker’s Piece, the city’s central park, popular for picnics and games, and within 2 miles you can hire a punt for a glide along the River Cam, seeing the delightful College Backs and the iconic Bridge of Sighs. Also within 2 miles, you can tour the historic colleges themselves and discover the spectacular collections of the Fitzwilliam Museum or the University Museum of Zoology.

The attractive terraced house is set over two storeys and has been designed for comfort and practicality, with a modern style yet a cosy and welcoming ambience. From the hallway, you can enter the lounge and either set up for some admin at the handy desk or sink into the soft seating and start to relax. With books on shelves and artwork on the walls, this space really feels like a home from home. A Smart TV provides additional entertainment for anyone who wants to watch a movie or a box set. From here, head into the kitchen, which is equipped with everything you’ll need to whip up delicious meals, plus a coffee machine for that all-important start to the day. There’s a breakfast bar for two, and this room flows into the bright dining area, where four people can gather round the table that looks out to the courtyard. Beyond this is a utility room with laundry facilities and a microwave, plus a useful ground-floor WC. All three bedrooms are on the first floor: two airy doubles with pretty furnishings, ample storage and a Smart TV each, plus a compact bunk-bed room with full-size beds. They share an elegant family bathroom.

The outdoor space makes the perfect space in which to relax after a day exploring: a safely enclosed courtyard where you can sit back with a drink or enjoy an alfresco meal in warm weather. You’ll also have off-road parking for one car.
