An exceptional, second floor, riverside apartment, situated within a landmark city centre development overlooking the river Cam and Magdalene College gardens. Refurbished to the highest of standards, showcasing creative design and meticulous attention to detail, rarely seen.

2 double bedrooms - bathroom suite - separate WC - utility room - exceptional kitchen/dining/living room with direct views over the river Cam and college gardens - balcony - garage - prestigious riverside gated scheme - permit parking

Built in 1984 by Johnson & Bailey, Beaufort Place is a gated development occupying a unique and privileged location, on the south bank of the river Cam, moments from Quayside, Jesus Green and the historic centre.

Number 42 is situated on the second floor, which is the optimal height from the river and perfectly connects the accommodation to outside surroundings, unlike lower and upper floor levels. This stunning two-bedroom apartment has been designed with this in mind and all principal accommodation takes full advantage of the spectacular views. A full refurbishment programme took place between autumn 2021 and May 2022 and has created a first class, one-off riverside home, finished to the highest of standards.

The property is accessed via secure gated grounds, which lead to a well-maintained reception area with a lift and staircase rising to all floors. The entrance hall provides good storage solutions, has attractive ash hardwood flooring which continues throughout all principal rooms and provides access to a utility room and impressive designer bathroom suite and separate WC. The living/dining room is a beautiful open space, which enjoys a high degree of natural light and leads to a private external balcony with composite wood decking boards, glass balustrade and lighting. The bespoke kitchen is by deVOL and finished in natural ash with copper handles and Dekton worktop. The peninsula forms integral, low-level furniture for the media centre, shelving and display. There is a full range of high quality integrated appliances and hob, under-wall-cupboard worktop lighting and handmade tile upstands. The dining area has a large full-height bay window and a feature Bio-ethanol recessed fireplace with stone linings. The principal bedroom has access to the balcony and bedroom two provides fitted shutters and ash vanity unit with stone wash basin.

The property benefits from a garage with lighting and power, and secure up/over door. Visitor parking permits are available from the city council for on-street parking.

Location - Beaufort Place is very conveniently situated within easy walking or cycling distance of the city centre and fronting onto the River Cam with views along the river and across to the grounds of Magdalene College. A wide range of shopping and other facilities are within the immediate vicinity with Jesus Green and Midsummer Common a short walk away. The apartment is situated in a four storey block at the Jesus Green end of the scheme. Cambridge railway station is 1.5 miles away and Addenbrooke's Hospital/Biomedical Campus is about 2.7 miles away.
