Milford Street

Features

Description

A beautifully renovated and extended Victorian cottage set on Milford Street, in one of Cambridge’s most sought after residential areas, just under a mile from the city centre and close to the amenities of Mill Road.

The property opens into a cosy and inviting living room, centred around a cast iron fireplace with timber surround and mantlepiece. Attractive exposed wooden floors and built in storage add both character and practicality. A part-glazed door leads through to the kitchen and dining room at the rear of the house.

The beautifully designed Shaker style kitchen forms the heart of the home. Thoughtfully laid out with generous worktops, under counter storage and a central island, it is both stylish and functional. The integrated Bosch appliances include an induction hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, Zanussi washing machine and CDA tumble dryer. Velux windows draw in an abundance of natural light, while French doors open directly onto the garden, creating a lovely connection between the inside and out. A convenient downstairs WC and understairs storage complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are three well proportioned double bedrooms, two on the first floor and a further bedroom in the converted loft. The first floor principal bedroom spans the full width of the property and features exposed wooden floors as well as built in storage in the alcoves. A generously sized family bathroom is also located on the first floor. The beautiful loft bedroom features built-in wardrobes. 

The private courtyard garden is south-facing, fully walled and finished with modern trellis and a wall-mounted parasol, making for a great space for relaxing or entertaining. It has gated access via a shared passageway and a smart bin store has been built at the back of the garden.  

Milford Street is a sought after residential road in the heart of Cambridge, which is popular with families, academics and professionals and is located within easy reach of Cambridge city centre and less than a mile from the main railway station. There are plenty of amenities close by including local bakeries, pubs, as well as the bustling Mill Road and shopping in the City centre or on Newmarket Road. 

The catchment area schools are St Matthew's Primary School, rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted, and for secondary, the highly sought after Parkside Academy again last rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted. It is also very close to the highly regarded Brunswick Nursery, which was also last rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted.
