A magnificent Victorian house with beautifully presented accommodation, set in stunning landscaped gardens, in an idyllic west city location.

Cambridge City Centre 1 mile, Mainline Railway Station 2 miles (Liverpool Street 70 minutes and King's Cross 49 minutes), M11 (Junction 13) 2.5 miles (distances and times are approximate).

Dating from 1899, No 7 Adams Road is a truly wonderful example of the late Victorian era and most imposing from its rear elevation, with charming reception rooms, original features still intact and a delightful aspect over the gardens to the south. Constructed of mellow red brick elevations with pretty tile hanging to the first floor under a tiled roof, of particular note is the superb first floor Library with its barrelled ceiling.
More recently the current owners have sympathetically extended and renovated the property under the direction of NRAP, a leading Cambridge practice to ensure the retention of many of the original period features including panelling, window seats and cornicing. Merging seamlessly with the original building, the new extension incorporates a large family kitchen/breakfast room with handmade units by Chalon of London, a splendid conservatory built by Vale Garden Houses leading through to the spa/gym with bespoke glass shower and sauna enclosures and an Italian spa designed by Tecu with Luna stone tiling. A new luxurious principal bedroom occupies the entirety of the first floor of the extension and completes this work.


Adams Road is widely regarded as one of the best addresses in the city and is characterised by substantial houses in large gardens. Situated less than a mile west of the heart of the
historic centre, the property occupies an idyllic position close to many of the College and University Departments and their playing fields, including St John's College School and King's College School which are just a short walk away in neighbouring Grange Road and West Road respectively. Cambridge also offers a wide range of educational and cultural amenities and is not only world renowned for its academic achievements, but also has become an important centre for the ‘high tech’ and ‘bio tech’ industries with the University Research and Development Laboratories and the internationally renowned Cambridge Science Park. Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the new Cambridge Biomedical Campus, planned to be one of the largest centres of health, science and medical research in the world, is within about 1.5 miles to the east. London commuters are well served with a mainline railway station about 2 miles away providing services to King’s Cross and Liverpool Street in about 52 and 67 minutes respectively and the M11 (junction 11) is about 2.5 miles away providing access to Stansted Airport and the M25.
