Maids Causeway, Cambridge, CB5

54 Maids Causeway is an exceptional and beautifully presented period home occupying a prominent position within walking distance of the city centre.

This superb, stylish and aspirational property has been sympathetically extended and completely refurbished by the current owners since they acquired it some six years ago. The attention to detail is faultless with empathetic lighting, beautiful Spanish tiled floors, high quality finishes and fittings throughout and bespoke hand-made cupboards and wardrobes. The character and elegance of the original era of the house has been retained whilst providing everything that is required for modern family living.

On the ground floor there is a comfortable sitting room to the front, as well as a useful study with bespoke fitted desk and storage. To the rear there is an extended, open-plan kitchen and breakfast room with bi-fold doors opening onto the garden and stylish, contemporary units and a central island.   

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms with fitted storage, including the principal bedroom with its luxury en suite shower room. There is also a family bathroom.

With the enviable bonus of secure private parking and planning permission for a fourth bedroom in the loft, this property is truly unique and is a rare opportunity to purchase a quintessential Cambridge home.

The property is located in a sought-after setting just half a mile from Cambridge city centre and just moments from The Grafton shopping centre. The centre of the city with its excellent shopping, leisure and cultural facilities, is just a quarter of a mile away. There are several good schools nearby, including St. Matthews Primary School and Park Street CofE Primary School, and for secondary, the outstanding-rated Chesterton Community College and Parkside Community College. The property is a mile and a half from Cambridge mainline station, which offers a fast and efficient service to London King's Cross (53 minutes), while the M11 is just two and a half miles away.

The property opens to the front onto Maids Causeway, while there is rear access to the garage via Salmon Lane. There is a gateway to the side of the house, providing access to the south-facing walled rear garden, which has paved terracing and an area of artificial turf lawn, plus access to the garage.
