Evening Court, Newmarket Road, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB5 8EA

An attractive end of terrace house in an exceptional position with views of the River Cam

Description

3 Evening Court is a modern end terrace property constructed during the late 1990’s of buff brick elevations with double glazed windows throughout. The property which has fabulous views over the allotments to the rear and Midsummer Common from the first floor, forms one of nine similarly styled properties in a quiet location off Newmarket Road.

Downstairs the property has open plan triple aspect kitchen/breakfast and dining/family room with wide glazed double doors to the rear garden. The kitchen has been fitted with ‘U’ shaped working surfaces and a range of matching cabinetry including wide deep pan drawers, spaces for dish washer and American style fridge/freezer. There are integrated stainless steel double ovens and microwave, along with a gas six burner hob and a woodblock counter breakfast bar. Twin glazed doors lead from the dining area into a snug/reading room or home office for those working from home. Oak flooring has been laid throughout the hallway and reception spaces, and a cloaks/WC completes the ground floor.

At first floor is the sitting room which has a double aspect including twin glazed doors onto a shallow balcony with elevated open views of the river, along with a double bedroom and large laundry room. The laundry room was previously an en-suite bathroom and could easily be converted back. There are four further bedrooms on the upper two floors including the principal bedroom to the rear with refitted en suite shower room comprising Duravit sanitary ware, and a large bathroom with a separate shower and ½ tiled walls.

The two top bedrooms (formerly one much larger bedroom) have dormer windows and fabulous views over the River Cam, allotments and Midsummer Common from the rear. A gas fired central heating system provides heating and hot water, while solar PV panels and battery storage provide a proportion of the electricity used in the house.

There is a side pedestrian access from the front, leading to a fully enclosed, partly walled paved courtyard garden which has been designed with low maintenance in mind and provides ample space for entertaining guests in the summer months. The house benefits from an allocated parking space and a shared visitors parking space.
