Detached 1930s property for refurbishment.

Description

286 Cherry Hinton Road is a detached property of rendered elevations and double glazed windows beneath a tiled roof. The property was constructed during the early 1930s and extends to approximately 1,090 sq ft with originally laid out accommodation over ground and first floors.

The current owner has occupied the house since 1966 and it is felt that the property would now benefit from a refurbishment program which could coincide with an extension if more space is required, subject to the necessary consents being granted. The sizeable reception hallway has exposed wooden floorboards and a dog leg staircase to first floor, the two reception rooms also have exposed floorboards and the front room has a wide bay window, fireplace surround (with concealed fireplace) whilst the rear room has an original 1930s fire surround and two small feature dual aspect windows along with a glazed door to the garden. The kitchen has a walk–in pantry/larder along with quite basic fittings, to the rear is a walk-in shower cubicle and WC.

There are four bedrooms upstairs which includes three doubles and a family bathroom. The front bedroom has a wide bay along with a concealed fireplace.

The property, which retains original panelled doors and picture rails to most rooms requires improvement throughout and is available with no onward chain and can be seen in greater detail on the attached floorplans.

The property is set back from Cherry Hinton Road beyond a mature front garden which has a driveway for one car which leads to a detached concrete sectional garage adjacent to which is an access path to the rear garden which measures about 31m (101.5’). The rear garden is south facing and has been overgrown for many years and although has been partially cleared recently could lend itself to re-landscaping which could include an extensive lawn with many attractive mature trees. There could also be sufficient space to construct a useful home office towards the rear for those working from home.

Please note the parcel of garden beyond the measured rear garden has been sold separately.
