About this home

Immaculate contemporary family home with stylish & versatile accommodation situated on a sought-after avenue.

Description

An impressive modern four-bedroom family house occupying a highly sought-after position on Nightingale Avenue, offering well-balanced accommodation extending to approximately 2,272 sq ft arranged over three floors.

The property is particularly notable for its excellent proportions and thoughtfully configured living space, designed to suit modern family life. At the heart of the home is a beautifully arranged kitchen and dining room, providing an exceptional open-plan environment for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is centred around a substantial island and flows naturally into the dining area, where generous glazing allows for excellent levels of natural light and provides an attractive outlook onto the garden with access out via bifold doors.

Complimenting the open-plan living space is a substantial sitting room to the front of the house, offering a more formal reception room with ample space for family gatherings and entertaining.

The bedroom accommodation is arranged over the upper floors and is particularly versatile. The principal bedroom benefits from an adjoining dressing room and en suite bathroom, while a further three generous double bedrooms are served by additional bath and shower room facilities. The upper floors provide excellent flexibility for family life, guest accommodation or home-working requirements.

Outside, the property enjoys a private rear garden with a paved area extending the entire width of the property and steps leading to a lawned area with a useful shed at the rear.

Location

Nightingale Avenue is situated in a particularly well-regarded south Cambridge setting, ideally positioned for many of the city’s most sought-after schools, principal employment hubs, Cambridge university hospital Addenbrooke’s and key transport links.

The property is well located for a number of highly regarded educational establishments, including The Perse School, The Pelican, Hills Road Sixth Form College, Long Road Sixth Form College and Netherhall School, all of which are accessible from the house by foot, bike or car.

Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus lies approximately three quarters of a mile away, making this an especially attractive location for those connected to Cambridge’s internationally renowned science, medical and research sectors.

A further advantage is the property’s proximity to the Cambridge South station, located under a mile from the property. Once operational, the station will provide excellent rail connectivity including direct links to London, Stansted Airport and the wider national rail network. The nearby Addenbrooke’s bus interchange also offers frequent and reliable services across Cambridge and beyond. In addition, the property provides convenient access to the M11 and A11, while Cambridge city centre is within 2 miles of the property.

For everyday amenities, a Co-op supermarket is 0.8 miles away, with larger stores such as Waitrose, Tesco and Sainsbury’s all available in the city. For leisure and everyday recreation, Nightingale Recreation Park & Ground is just moments from the property, offering green open space along with tennis and basketball courts, a football pitch and outdoor gym facilities. Additional nearby parks and walking routes further enhance the appeal for family living. David Lloyd Cambridge, approximately a 15-minute drive away, provides extensive health and fitness facilities for all ages.
