3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Garlic Row, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire CB5

16 Garlic Row is a 3-bedroom semi-detached eco-house recently renovated by Architect and Passivhaus Consultant, Oliver Cooper. The property enjoys an increasingly popular location and is within a 6 minute cycle/24 minute walk (approx.) of the Cambridge North Railway Station.

Standing semi-detached of brick elevations under recently re-roofed natural slate roof, the property offers scope with planning permission granted to extend out at ground and first floor level to the rear. There is a extremely generous sized rear garden (70-ft approx) which offers a good deal of privacy and would more than accommodate such an extension.

Key features include:-
• Completely reconfigured to make careful use of the space: The new layout brings lots of natural light into the heart of the new functional open plan living space.
• Retrofitted using Passivhaus principles with Solar pv panels on the roof: Energy consumption has been cut by over 80% and bills cut by over 50%. The home is comfortable year-round and is completely fossil-fuel free as it runs off a small air source heat pump, making it ideal for people aiming to cut bills and live with net zero carbon impact.
• A healthy home: The house features natural materials throughout and has a whole-house ventilation system achieving excellent indoor air quality throughout by continuously supplying fresh filtered air to each room. This system also saves energy by recovering heat from the air in winter and keeps the house cool on peak summer days by rejecting heat from incoming air.
• Great transport links via Cambridge and Cambridge North.
• Solar Photovoltaic Panels on roof generate ~900 kWh of electricity per year.
