14 Maids Causeway has been updated throughout the four floors, retaining a
wealth of period characteristic features, including fireplace and sash
windows. However, the property benefits from contemporary interior styling,
providing an elegant home to present - day lifestyles.
Steps lead to the entrance door and vestibule into a bright reception hallway,
exaggerated by a glass - panelled door allowing light from the rear extension. A
formal living room sits off the hallway featuring a fireplace and, a
particular feature of these beautiful homes, a floor - to - ceiling window. The
real heart of this family home is the kitchen/drawing room, cleverly extended
across the rear of the property to incorporate a dining room, enhanced by twin
full - height doors leading to a rear elevated deck, perfect for outside
entertaining. The kitchen area is fitted with an excellent range of bespoke
wall and base cabinetry topped with stone work surfaces incorporating a
breakfast bar, display shelving, and integrated appliances.
A lower landing staircase leads to a beautiful individual cloakroom/powder
room and a generous utility, with direct access to the rear garden. A further
reception/cinema room, a guest bedroom suite, and storage areas are off the
lower landing.
From the hallway, a sweeping staircase leads past a feature - arched window to
the main landing area, leading to a principal bedroom suite with dressing
area, featuring a mounted bath beneath the window overlooking Midsummer
Common. Two additional double bedrooms are on this floor, split by a dual use
en suite shower room, ideal for children. Two double bedrooms are on the top
floor to complete the accommodation, serviced by a family bathroom.
Attention to detail has been put into landscaping the front and rear areas. A
wrought iron gate sits between the private hedge, with a pathway leading
directly to the steps, and the front door, with mature bushes and flowers
bordering the path. The rear garden is mature in setting, with gated rear
access, extensively laid to lawn with bush and tree bordering, and a soft play
area. The 24ft raised terrace from the kitchen/dining room is a focal point.
Maids Causeway runs alongside Midsummer Common, an open green space to the
northwest of the city centre, bordering the River Cam. Cambridge city centre
offers a comprehensive range of shopping facilities, including a daily market,
the Grafton Centre and Grand Arcade shopping malls, and several independent
shops and restaurants. Shopping is also available on Chesterton Road,
including a baker's and supermarket. Various recreational, sports, and
cultural amenities are available, with numerous theatres, art galleries,
museums, and the Cambridge Colleges and gardens.
Maids Causeway is approximately 1. 8 miles from Cambridge train station
(services to London King's Cross from 50 minutes) and Cambridge North station
approximately 2. 8 miles. Schools for all age groups in both the state and
private sectors are close by, and good road links via the M11 and A14 provide
onward access to major road networks. (Times and distances are approximate).
