4 bed terraced house for sale

Carlyle Road, Cambridge CB4

A beautiful, bay-fronted Victorian house, with 4 bedrooms and a large loft room across three floors and totalling 1600 sq. Ft, located in a wonderful setting, a moment from the river and backing onto Alexandra Gardens.

This rather handsome and wide terraced house has been altered and extended to provide excellent accommodation for a large family. The current owners have maintained the house to an exceptional standard and retained many of the features synonymous with homes of the period.

There is a wider than usual hallway with original corbels and a staircase. The living room is at the front of the house and has a bay window, a fireplace with an attractive woodburner. Glass sliding doors lead to the family room, and both the living room and dining room have stripped floorboards and original plaster cornicing. Double doors lead to the rear of the house, which has been extended to include a kitchen, with fitted cupboards and Corian worktops, a dining room and a sun room with a vaulted ceiling and doors to the garden. There is also a ground-floor WC.

On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, including two large doubles. The bathroom has a shower over the bath, a vanity basin, a towel rail, and there is a separate WC. A staircase from the landing leads to the second floor, which was converted some years ago into a lovely loft room, with a large window overlooking Alexandra Gardens at the rear, along with extensive, useful eaves storage space.

The house has gas central heating with a combi boiler, a burglar alarm, double glazing, and was reroofed in 2012.

Outside, there is a front garden. The enclosed and private rear garden is charming; it is mainly brick and paving, with brick-built raised beds and a useful brick shed.
