Glebe Road, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB1.

Built in 2013 by the award-winning developer Hill Residential, Orchard House is one of just two exclusive and luxurious properties on Glebe Road, a popular and desirable south city location. The construction of the property comprises suspended insulated concrete floors, cavity-filled brick and block outer walls, timber window frames and a tiled roof. Internally, the property features 5,750 sq ft of immaculately presented accommodation arranged over three floors. High-quality materials have been used throughout the construction, and the current owner has further improved the property by converting a pre-existing carport into a large utility room, the original utility into a pantry and creation of a gym and large downstairs bedroom.

Outside
Set well back from the road, a secure gated access opens to a block paved driveway leading past a well-screened front garden, a generous parking area, and access to the Car Port and its 3 Storerooms. The rear garden is fully enclosed and enjoys privacy and seclusion from the mature trees and shrubs that border the perimeter fencing. The garden is ideal for those with a young family, with a large artificial lawn serving as a play area and a less formal space amongst the trees, along with the ground-level treehouse and ample storage in the two wooden sheds. A real bonus of the garden is the heated Swimming Pool set within the large, paved terrace served by a Pool House with a sitting/changing area, WC and shower room. Additional pockets of garden and terraces can be found to the side elevations, providing ample areas for seating and relaxation.

Glebe Road is one of the most highly regarded roads in this prime, south city location, conveniently situated for access to Addenbrooke's Hospital and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, planned to be one of the world's largest centres of health, science and medical research. The property is also well placed for access to a mainline railway station with services to London's King's Cross and Liverpool Street in approximately 48 and 85 minutes, respectively. Several leisure and sporting facilities are within walking or cycling distance, including Hills Road Sports Centre, providing indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a gym, and Cambridge Leisure, a supermarket, cinema, ten-pin bowling and restaurant complex, to the north of Cherry Hinton Road.
