Step into this immaculate space and immediately feel the sense of calm and quality that defines this beautifully maintained, top-floor, south-facing apartment. Purchased in August 2019 and constructed from reinforced concrete, the property offers a solid, modern feel combined with thoughtful, high-spec upgrades throughout.
As you enter the hallway, you’re welcomed by excellent natural light that flows through the apartment thanks to its elevated, end-of-row position and south-facing aspect. The upgraded lighting, sockets, and light-switch accessories set a refined tone, while bespoke radiator covers and feature walls add character and a designer finish.
The open-plan living and kitchen area is the heart of the home. This bright, airy space enjoys sunlight from mid-morning through to sunset, creating a warm and uplifting atmosphere throughout the day. The upgraded kitchen splashback enhances the sleek, modern design, while high-quality appliances, including a washing machine, fridge-freezer, and dishwasher, upgraded approximately two years ago ensure everyday practicality and efficiency. The flat benefits from excellent airflow and ventilation, staying warm in winter and comfortably cool in summer, further enhanced by air conditioning installed throughout.
The living area flows seamlessly onto the balcony, which has been upgraded with Italian porcelain paving slabs. Spacious enough to be used as an outdoor room, it’s perfect for enjoying lunch, morning coffee, or simply relaxing in the sun. The elevated views and complete privacy - not overlooked due to its top-floor, end-of-row position make this a peaceful retreat, with sunshine right through until sunset.
The bedroom continues the theme of quality and comfort, featuring a bespoke built-in wardrobe and high-spec finishes. The space is bright, quiet, and immaculately presented, offering a calm and private sanctuary at the end of the day.
The bathroom is modern and stylish, complementing the overall feel of the apartment with clean lines and quality fittings.
Residents benefit from access to a well-maintained communal garden and an on-site gym, adding lifestyle convenience to this central Cambridge location. The development itself is modern and well managed, offering secure entry, lift access, and a strong sense of privacy and peace.
Practical touches include a custom fitted Banham intruder alarm and an allocated car parking space with an electric vehicle charging point, providing excellent future-proofing. The apartment is energy-efficient and low-maintenance, and the long 999-year lease from 2014 offers the reassurance of a virtual freehold.
Overall, this is an exceptionally quiet, private, and light-filled home, well-managed with a rare combination of elevated views, modern comfort, and high-quality finishes, all within a secure and desirable development on Hills Road.
