Description
Set on the western edge of Trumpington Meadows, Osprey Drive is a smart, tree-lined avenue of contemporary townhouses, and is just a short walk from the country park and nature reserve. This home forms part of an attractive row of semi detached townhouses and has been thoughtfully designed with tall windows in order to flood the interiors with natural light and enhance the sense of space throughout.
As you approach the property the front garden is enclosed by a low brick wall topped with wrought iron railings, with a paved path leading to the front door, and surrounded by established plants and shrubs. From the entrance hall there is a WC and storage cupboard.
From the hallway is a large living room situated at the front of the home and via glazed double doors this leads through to the kitchen/dining room, which is also accessible from the hallway. The kitchen spans the width of the property and offers a practical U-shaped layout with plenty of base and wall units, generous worktop space and integrated appliances, including a double oven, fridge/freeze, dishwasher, washing machine, wine fridge and a five ring gas hob. Patio doors connect the dining space to the garden, making it perfect for everyday living and entertaining.
Upstairs, the first floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. The second bedroom has a its own ensuite shower room. The exceptionally spacious principal bedroom suite is situated on the second floor, is dual aspect, and features an ensuite bathroom with both a bath and separate shower; as well as a dressing area with two fitted wardrobes. Alongside the principal bedroom is the the fifth bedroom which could also be used as a home office.
Outside, the garden is lawned with a path connecting to the garden gate and on to the double garage. The double garage has a pedestrian door from the garden as well as separate pedestrian and vehicle access from the street behind. The garage, fitted with an electric roller door and EV charging point, also has a roof terrace above with steps leading from the garden. The neighbouring homes were built with a second storey above the garage offering a studio or separate annex, and subject to planning permission this is potentially an option for the new owners.
Additional benefits include solar panels, owned outright, which generate an annual income of around £100 via the feed-in tariff. There is also the remainder of the NHBC warranty. Residents contribute a modest fee of £50 per year towards the upkeep of communal areas within the development.
Trumpington Meadows has a primary school, Sainsbury's Local convenience store, and independent cafe. There is a larger Waitrose supermarket in Trumpington along with pubs and restaurants in both Trumpington and Grantchester.
There is easy access to the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, out to the M11 and into the city centre by car, bus, guided bus, or cycle route. Cambridge South station is expected to be open for public use in early 2026. There is ample green space, the country park and nature reserve as well as delightful walks along the River Cam and towards Grantchester.
