A well-presented two-bedroom home, converted in 1996 from a former 1947 - built telephone exchange, ideally located in the ever-popular Trumpington area.

The accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch leading into a well-appointed kitchen, thoughtfully designed to offer ample storage and worktop space, creating a practical yet welcoming first impression.

Flowing through to the rear, the property opens into a bright and generously sized living room, enjoying plenty of natural light and featuring doors that lead out to the garden, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining.


Upstairs, the property offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, each providing comfortable accommodation, along with a neatly presented family bathroom.


Externally, the rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by a patio seating area that is perfectly suited for outdoor dining and enjoying the warmer months. To the front, the property benefits from off-road parking for one vehicle, adding further convenience.

The High Street is home to a mix of shops, cafés, and pubs, including well-known spots like the Green Man, Sole & Duck, and the Duchess of Cambridge. Close by, Anstey Way has a small parade of independent businesses, such as a fish and chip shop, a bike shop, a florist, a deli, and a bakery. Healthcare services are conveniently located, with a doctor's surgery on Beverley Way and a dentist on Bishops Road. For grocery shopping, there is a Sainsbury's Local on Kestrel Rise, along with a Waitrose situated on Hauxton Road.
