An impressive, detached family home with three reception rooms and five bedrooms, occupying a secluded position at the end of one of the city’s most highly regarded roads.

Cambridge City Centre 1-mile, Mainline Railway Station (King’s Cross and Liverpool Street lines) 1 mile, M11 (junction 12) 2.5 miles, Stansted Airport 27 miles, (distances are approximate).

Situated at the end of Chaucer Road, number 25 was built in the late 1980s of Swedish design and is constructed with brick elevations under tiled roofs with attractive hipped, first floor dormer windows. Though just one mile from the city centre, the property is set in beautifully within its plot with views over the river Cam and towards Paradise Local Nature Reserve.



Chaucer Road is conveniently situated just 1 mile from the heart of the city centre, yet still enjoys a unique rural feel with its close proximity to Coe Fen and Grantchester Meadows. Newnham village is less than half a mile by a nearby footpath/cycleway and offers an excellent range of facilities including a post office/delicatessen, chemist, bakers/cafe, butchers and small supermarket. Some of the most highly regarded schools in the city, such as St Faith’s, The Stephen Perse Foundation, The Perse, The Leys and St Mary’s are within easy walking or cycling distance of the property and there are also nursery schools in Chaucer Road itself. The wonderful University Botanic Garden is just a few hundred yards away on the eastern side of Trumpington Road. Cambridge is a world-renowned University city which offers an attractive combination of ancient and modern buildings, winding lanes and colleges, together with extensive shopping and cultural facilities. It also has become recognised as an important centre for the ‘high tech’ and ‘bio tech’ industries with the University Research and Development Laboratories, Science Park, ARM, Microsoft, AstraZeneca and Addenbrooke’s Hospital/Biomedical Campus, one of the largest centres of health, science and medical research in the world.

London commuters are well served with a mainline railway station about 1 mile to the east providing services to King’s Cross and Liverpool Street in approximately 48 and 68 minutes respectively and the M11 (junction 12) is about 2.5 miles away, providing access to Stansted Airport and the M25.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 5, 2023

    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: obtained from Ofcom on June 5, 2023

    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
