2 bedroom apartment

Forming part of an attractive, well-maintained development of just six apartments, this superb first-floor property offers light and spacious accommodation, set well back from Cambridge Road and ideally positioned near the boundary of Great Shelford and the city of Cambridge.

Accessed via a secure communal entrance with an intercom system, stairs lead to the first-floor landing and the private entrance to the apartment. The welcoming hallway provides fitted storage and access to all rooms.

The standout feature is the impressive open-plan kitchen/living space, flooded with natural light and enjoying lovely views through double-glazed windows. The kitchen is finished to a high standard with integrated appliances including a dishwasher, fridge and freezer, oven with hob and extractor, and a utility cupboard housing a washer/dryer and gas boiler.

The property offers two bedrooms: a spacious double with fitted wardrobes and a contemporary en-suite shower room, and a second, single bedroom ideal for guests or use as a home office. A separate, modern family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Outside, the building is screened from the road by mature trees, enhancing privacy. The front of the property provides allocated parking, along with space for bins. A side access path leads to a beautifully maintained communal garden and secure bike storage area.

The property was built with a 999 year lease in 2005. There is an annual management fee of £2,300 which includes the ground rent. The building is managed by Encore.

Great Shelford is one of the most sought-after villages south of the city thanks to its easy access to town and Addenbrooke's by road, regular buses, car-free purpose built cycleways and train from its mainline railway station that also goes direct to London Liverpool Street.



The historic village centre has excellent day-to-day facilities including two small supermarkets, a convenience store, a deli, hairdressers, doctors, dentist, dispensing chemist, two pubs, restaurants and more. The primary school is very well regarded and there are various community facilities and social clubs. The large recreation ground has a new pavilion, tennis club and sports pitches and annually hosts the excellent Shelford Feast festival.



It is a great community for those looking for a balance of convenience and traditional village feel and offers the real possibility of living day-to-day without the need to regularly drive out of the village.
