Description

4 Willis Road is a Victorian three storey bay fronted semi-detached townhouse within this desirable and ever popular residential area close to the train station and just off Mill Road.

The property which is constructed of Cambridge white brick is approached along a pretty chequered tiled pathway behind a brick wall leading to a red gloss panelled front door with stained glass windows.

The house opens into a wide hallway with high ceilings. To the left of the hall is a well-proportioned drawing room with a bay window to the front and built-in shelves to either side of an attractive Victorian style fireplace with a wooden mantel and stone surround. To the rear the house opens into an exceptional south-east facing kitchen/dining/living room which spans the entire width of the house. This welcoming room is further enhanced with wood flooring, bay window with French doors leading to the garden and a working fireplace. The well-appointed kitchen has a wide range of bespoke wall and floor mounted units and a mix of stone and wood surfaces. There is an integrated dishwasher and space for a large fridge freezer and built in gas fired Aga oven. There is more than ample room for a large dining table and chairs. A utility room and cloakroom complete the downstairs accommodation.

A wide staircase leads to the first floor landing which communicates with three well-proportioned bedrooms. Of particular note is the main bedroom which has a room adjoining which could make a wonderful study or walk-in wardrobe. There is a fully tiled family bathroom with wonderful walk-in shower and white sanitary ware. A staircase leads to the top floor with two good bedrooms, a study area and a further bathroom with a freestanding iron bath with claw feet.

Outside the south-east facing garden has been laid mainly to lawn with a decked area at the rear and a stone terrace across the rear of the house. There is also wide and very useful access to the rear garden which accommodates a bike storage area.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
