The beautifully presented and unusually light accommodation extends to over 2600sqft and is laid out over two floor, offering very well balanced family living space.
On the ground floor is a large, welcoming reception hall with attractive staircase rising to the first floor. There are two stunning reception rooms, both with fireplaces, a lovely garden room/potential working from home space with doors to the garden and a superb kitchen/breakfast room with excellent range of appliances, a central island, a gas stove and ample space for an additional sitting area. There are double doors opening to the terrace and a further door opening to the useful utility room. A cloakroom and guest WC completes the ground floor.
On the first floor are five good size bedrooms, four with double aspects and two with fireplaces, and three bath/shower rooms, two being en-suite. Houses of this style and calibre are rarely seen coming to the market and a viewing is highly recommended.
Outside: The property is approached via double vehicular gates giving access to ample gravelled parking. The house is pleasantly secluded from the road with mature planting and panelled fencing. There is a further wide, pedestrian gate leading onto Hills Avenue and a further double timber gate leads back to rear.
The gardens of No.17 are a delight. They are beautifully landscaped with a well-tended lawn, topiary hedging, well-stocked and thoughtfully planted borders and a large, sandstone terrace providing the perfect space for al-fresco dining and entertaining. There is also a pretty potting/garden shed and further outdoor private sitting areas.
Location: Hills Avenue is situated in a highly regarded area which is very much in demand when it comes to buyers looking to secure a home in Cambridge. Its location is highly accessible for access to the city centre, along with many of the renowned schools (within walking distance of The Perse), Sixth Form Colleges and the hospital. For those needing to commute by road, some of the major networks are a short drive away, leading to London, the north and Stansted Airport. There is a Waitrose supermarket within easy reach along with local amenities available on Cherry Hinton Road and the leisure complex, a short walk away.. There is also a direct cycle and bus route along Hills Road into the city centre and the railway station, which offers a fast and regular train service into London.
