Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • 5 bedrooms
  • 3 reception rooms
  • 3 bathrooms
  • Semi Detached
Situated in the heart of the city, this period property offers a flexible spacious home benefiting from a mature south-facing private garden. With well-proportioned rooms featuring high ceilings, exposed floorboards, cornicing, picture rails and sash windows, this is a classic example of Victorian architecture.

This classic Victorian semi-detached home with brick elevations and slate roof has been our clients' family home for several years, offering excellent accommodation set over three floors, with a beautiful mix of features one would expect from the period with wooden floorboards, feature fireplaces, and generous ceiling heights. The property is in a favoured city location, ideal for growing families with easy access to the mainline station, schooling, and Botanical Gardens.

On the ground floor, a part-stained leaded entrance door leads into the main hallway with a staircase to the first floor. From here, there is direct access to three primary reception rooms. A sitting room with a sash bay window to the front elevation features an open fireplace with a surround. Double doors lead into a living room, ideal for entertaining, with a fireplace and double doors leading into a garden room opening on to an elevated patio beyond. At the head of the hallway is a dining room leading into the kitchen, with an arrangement of wall and base cabinetry and access to the rear garden. This space is ideal for extension, subject to the relevant planning consent, with permission granted for a substantial extension in 2018. A utility room/WC from the kitchen completes the downstairs accommodation.

Three double bedrooms, serviced by a refitted modern bathroom, lead from the first-floor landing, with two further bedrooms and a bathroom to the second floor.

The delightful enclosed mature south-facing garden enjoys paved entertaining areas and a lawn that weaves between fruit trees and flower borders, defying its central city location. There is also a useful timber studio with light and power and a kitchen garden. There is access via a useful covered side passage to the right of the house where bicycles can be stored.


Lyndewode Road is a highly regarded central city location, approximately 0.4 miles from Cambridge mainline station, with services to London Kings Cross (from 48 minutes) and London Liverpool Street (from 72 minutes). Nearby Mill Road is one of Cambridge's most vibrant and eclectic shopping streets, with various cafes, bijoux restaurants, and independent shops.

The historic city centre is within walking distance, offering a comprehensive range of shopping and leisure facilities, including The Cambridge University Botanical Gardens, a unique 40-acre site with Victorian glass houses and cafes. Addenbrooke's Hospital/Biomedical Campus and Science Park are approximately 1.9 miles away, easily accessible by bus or bicycle. Schools for all age groups in both the state and independent sectors are close by, and good road links via the M11 and A14 provide onward access to major road networks.

    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

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 10, 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
