Fitzgerald Place

Features

Description

Situated within the esteemed 'Vie' development is this well-presented and spacious third-floor two-bedroom apartment, combining modern living with a tranquil riverside location. There is no onward chain.

From the building's secure entry doors and lobby, you enter into the entrance hall, which has a useful storage cupboard. Beyond is an expansive open-plan living and dining area, with large sliding doors opening onto a generously sized private balcony. The outlook is one of the apartment's real strengths, with views across Logan's Meadow local nature reserve and, in the distance, King's College Chapel – a lovely backdrop for both relaxing and entertaining.

The modern kitchen has a sleek handleless design and is fully equipped with integrated appliances, including a gas hob, full-size dishwasher and full-height Indesit fridge freezer, alongside a Smeg electric oven and integrated Hoover washing machine.

Both bedrooms are generously sized doubles. The principal bedroom has windows to three aspects, access to the south-west facing balcony, and a fully tiled, high-specification ensuite shower room with a large walk-in shower and Villeroy & Boch wall-hung WC and basin. The second bedroom sits alongside the family bathroom, which is also fully tiled and finished with Villeroy & Boch sanitaryware. A large double cupboard houses the hot water cylinder and boiler, with plenty of additional storage space. Both the family bathroom and ensuite have windows and natural light.

The apartment offers a range of modern amenities, including hot-water underfloor heating controlled by room-specific thermostats for comfort throughout the seasons. The building's security is enhanced with a entry phone system, and residents have the convenience of an allocated parking space along with additional spaces for visitors. There is also secure bicycle storage with key code access.

Fitzgerald Place is very well located for local amenities. Chesterton High Street is close at hand, with The Haymakers pub, local takeaways and convenience stores all within easy reach. The Equiano riverside bridge provides easy access across the river to the wide selection of supermarkets and shopping along Newmarket Road. Both the city centre and the Cambridge Science and Business Parks can be reached on foot or by bike along predominantly traffic-free routes beside the River Cam. For those commuting by train, Cambridge North station is just over a mile away, with direct services to London King's Cross.
