About this home

Situated in the sought-after and secluded Newnham area, just off the popular Adams Road, this property enjoys a highly desirable central location, within walking distance of Cambridge city centre and convenient for access to the M11.

The ground floor further offers a generous sitting room with additional garden access, a kitchen/dining room with adjoining utility room, two bedrooms and a family bathroom. Upstairs are two further bedrooms and a second family bathroom.

Outside, the substantial garden offers excellent potential to create an attractive space for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying the summer months.
