Description:

Dating back to the 1930s and reputedly the first house of its type built on the road, 1 Eachard Road is a characterful and spacious detached home occupying a prominent position on this quiet residential road.

The property offers flexible accommodation extending to over 1600sqft with three large reception rooms, and a study, a good-size kitchen/breakfast room, a utility and a shower room on the ground floor and three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. The house retains the patina of its era but would benefit from a programme of renovation and updating. It is the perfect opportunity to acquire a wonderful, period home in a superb location to which one can add one’s own touch.

Outside:

The house is set back nicely from the road with areas of mature shrub planting and gravelled parking. There is pedestrian gated access leading back to the rear gardens which are exceptional in size and offer excellent levels of seclusion and sunlight. There is established planting along with a former kitchen garden, a lovely shepherd’s hut and a potting shed. The gardens can be accessed from the conservatory and the kitchen with a covered patio to the back of the house looking down the garden.

Location:

Eachard Road forms part of a highly regarded, established residential area off Huntingdon Road, less than a mile north of Cambridge City Centre. It is well placed for access to many university colleges and departments, prestigious schools and the city centre in general. There is a regular bus service along Huntingdon Road into the City Centre and a cycle lane. There are also excellent local facilities serving the district including a parade of shops on Histon Road catering for most day-to-day needs. The location is also convenient for anyone needing access to the Science or Business parks off Milton Road and the region’s main commuter routes (A14/M11/A1) as well as with easy reach of the new Cambridge North railway station.
