3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Glebe Road, Cambridge CB1

1930s semi-detached house, available to the open market for the first time in 50 years, located in a highly desirable location with scope for improvement and extension, subject to planning.

The house has been owned by the same family since 1971 and now requires complete renovation. It offers significant scope for a buyer to modernise, extend, or reconfigure to create a remarkable home. It already measures around 1,391 sq ft, excluding the garage, and features a traditional layout with four bedrooms, three reception areas, and a delightful rear conservatory overlooking the west-facing garden.

There is additional land available by separate negotiation, which would be sold subject to an overage clause.

Should any future planning permission be granted and implemented for the development of additional residential dwellings within the grounds, an uplift payment will be due to the current owners. This overage will entitle the sellers to receive 25% of any increase in the land’s value arising from such permission. The overage applies for a period of 25 years from the date of sale and will be secured by a restriction on the title.

Located just off Hills Road, the property is a 20 minute walk or a short cycle to Cambridge Station and a 35 minute walk to the city centre. The house is in catchment for excellent state schools and there is easy access by foot or bicycle to nearby private schools, Hills Road sixth form college, the Addenbrooke's site and biomedical campus, Cambridge University colleges and other further education establishments.

The area is well supplied with restaurants, pubs and shops. The leisure centre on Clifton Road is just a short walk away with a cinema complex and gym as well as The Junction arts venue for drama, music and comedy performances.
