Barrington House, Southacre Drive CB2

A beautifully renovated three bedroom ground floor apartment set within the highly regarded Barrington House, quietly positioned just off Southacre Drive in one of Cambridge’s most desirable locations.

Extending to approximately 100 sq m (1,076 sq ft), the apartment has been thoughtfully updated throughout to create a calm and elegant living environment, ready to move straight into. The layout is both practical and versatile, with two well proportioned and connected reception spaces offering flexibility for both everyday living and more formal entertaining.

The principal living and dining space is a particularly generous dual aspect room, filled with natural light and opening via French doors onto a private south-facing patio. Beyond are the beautifully maintained communal grounds, with established planting creating a natural sense of privacy before the space opens out onto the vast lawn beyond.

The kitchen has been recently fitted in a classic Shaker style and is also dual aspect, creating a bright and practical space at the heart of the home. It is beautifully appointed with an integrated pantry cupboard; dishwasher; and a panoramic induction hob with double oven below.

There are three comfortable double bedrooms, all enjoying views over the beautifully maintained grounds. The spacious principal bedroom features an updated ensuite, where the current owners have also thoughtfully integrated a washing machine and drying rack.

The main family bathroom is well appointed, with a bath and overhead shower; a back-to-wall toilet and concealed cistern; along with useful built in storage.

With the extensive and well-maintained communal grounds, Barrington House enjoys a peaceful yet well-connected setting, with Cambridge station less than a mile away and the city centre within easy reach, offering a wide range of amenities, restaurants and cultural attractions.
