An impressive townhouse, with a floor area of around 235 sqm
2530 sqft, offers wonderfully versatile and light accommodation
over four floors. It is perfectly positioned for easy access to the
city centre, train station, and nearby highly regarded
schools.
Aberdeen Avenue is part of the renowned and award winning
Accordia development. It was the first residential scheme to win
the prestigious RIBA Sterling Prize, particularly for its model of
inside outside life with interior rooftop terraces, internal
courtyards, and generous communal gardens.
It has stood the test of time, stands out as one of
Cambridge‘s prime locations, has a strong feeling of community, and
is conveniently located for the city centre. Cambridge Train
Station is only a 3 minute cycle away.
The house extends over four floors and offers versatile
accommodation that can adapt to most family needs. Tall windows and
doors with east to west aspects throughout create wonderfully light
rooms and an excellent energy rating, and under floor heating and a
recently installed boiler ensure warmth on cooler days.
The ground floor includes a stylish, well equipped, fitted
kitchen with integrated appliances and glazed doors to the front
that opens to a covered, decked terrace.
This opens to a wider dining family area with glazed doors to
the inner courtyard. The rear hall has a useful utility cupboard,
shower room, access to the large garage and stairs leading to
bedroom five studio.
The first floor includes a substantial living family room that
spans an impressive 10m 33 in length. Two glazed doors lead to a
Juliet balcony at the front overlooking mature trees.
From here, there is a sunny, west facing terrace, which is
ideal for relaxing, eating, and entertaining. There are raised
flower beds and another door to bedroom 5 studio.
There are two double bedrooms on the second floor, including
bedroom 2, a great alternative main bedroom with fitted wardrobes
and a door leading to a striking Jack & Jill bathroom suite, and a
further two bedrooms on the top floor, including an impressive main
bedroom suite comprising excellent storage, a private terrace, and
a beautiful four piece bathroom suite with a panelled bath,
separate shower, twin sink units, and a WC.
Accordia is an acclaimed and popular development known for its
unique and interesting architecture.
The area is conveniently situated half a mile away from
Cambridge Railway Station and a five minute walk from the
University Botanical Gardens. Two minutes on a bike gets you to The
Leys, whereas six minutes gets you to The Perse or Hills Road Six
Form College. Cambridge City Centre is less than a mile from the
property with its combination of ancient and modern buildings,
winding lanes and wide range of shopping facilities.
The development is within walking distance of Cambridge
Leisure, a multi screen cinema and bowling alley complex with
several well known restaurants and a popular live music comedy
venue, The Junction. Supermarket shopping is a 3 minute walk away
at the co op, also available at Cambridge Leisure, with Tesco and
