4 bedroom end of terrace house for sale

Immaculate four bedroom modern home with large roof terrace and winter garden.

Description

43 Aberdeen Avenue is located in a wonderful position at the end of terrace overlooking one of the small parks which intersperse the much sought-after ‘Accordia’ development - the first housing development to win the RIBA Stirling Prize for Architecture (in 2008). The property, at the time of writing, is one of only a handful of this house type which has become available since the street was completed in 2009 and has flexible accommodation laid out over three floors. The current owners have undertaken an extensive refurbishment programme including some reconfiguration and the addition of a large light well which spans almost the entire sitting room and creates an abundance of natural light. There are two entrances to the house including the front door which is entered off the path adjacent to the park, leading into the exceptional sitting room with engineered parquet flooring and runs through the reception spaces including to the first floor living room.

The bespoke kitchen, by David Hall, is at the far end of the room, next to the winter garden which is quite spectacular. Mixed wood units with polished concrete work surfaces are fitted with integrated appliances including a Fisher and Paykel dishwasher, two large Gaggenau ovens (one a steam oven) and an induction hob with extractor fan in the matching concrete breakfast island. There is more than ample space for a large dining table and chairs, as well as a reception space with bespoke cabinetry. Sliding glazed doors lead out to the winter garden which is open to the elements, fitted with some large planters and evergreen shrubs. To the right of the entrance, a set of stairs leads to an additional incredible living room with a mezzanine floor, which could be used as a bedroom with an en suite shower room. At the far end of the house there is a ground floor bedroom with an en suite bathroom comprising walk-in shower, which would make an ideal guest room and could be used as a home office or gym. There is also access to an insulated storage space currently used as a cinema room and library, formerly the garage. There is a WC, wine storage room and utility cupboard with matte glass sliding doors.

Upstairs there is the main bedroom with adjoining bespoke bath and walk in shower room, and a dressing room. There is a further double bedroom which has access onto the roof terrace which is surprisingly private. The property can be seen in greater detail on the attached floorplan, has the benefit of underfloor heating throughout, solar panels and parking permits available on application to the Cambridge City Council.
