1 bed flat for sale

Bateman Street, Cambridge CB2

A highly spacious and characterful, 1-bedroom upper ground floor apartment with front and rear bay windows and off-road parking, occupying a superb, near-central location close to the railway station.

This characterful one bedroom apartment forms part of a large Victorian property, which was formerly a semi-detached villa. The apartment itself is highly spacious and benefits from very high ceilings, period features and a wealth of light, particularly in the living area and bedroom, which both have bay windows. The property is desirably located, a stone’s throw from the Botanic Gardens and within 10 minutes’ walk of the railway station and city centre.

Accessed via a secure communal lobby, the apartment enters into the kitchen, which is well-appointed and equipped with an electric oven, an electric hob with an extractor hood over, an integrated dishwasher, a cupboard housing the gas-fired combination boiler and plumbing for a washing machine. The living/dining room has a large, south-facing bay window to the rear and an impressive feature fireplace. An inner hallway includes two handy storage cupboards and leads to the sizeable bedroom, which has a bay window to the front, a feature fireplace and a fitted cupboard with shelves. There is a three piece ensuite bathroom, which is partly tiled and includes a panelled bath with a shower over, wash basin and a WC.

Outside, the apartment owns the surrounding gardens of the property, which the other tenants have a right to use as well and therefore garden maintenance expenses are shared among all the apartments in the building. Flat 2 also benefits from off-road parking with an allocated space belonging to the property.

The property is being sold with the benefit of no onward chain.
