5 Warkworth Street is a substantial terraced townhouse constructed with brick elevations under a tiled roof. Dating from the Victorian period, the property is a fine example of the era, benefitting from well proportioned rooms with high ceilings and retaining many of its original period features. During their ownership, the current owners have greatly improved the property to include replacement of the roof, insulation and boarding of the loft area, and reconfiguration of the lower ground floor to create a utility area for the main house alongside the annexe/independent apartment. In all, the property offers 2,217 sq ft (206 sq m) of beautifully presented accommodation and presents prospective purchasers the opportunity to acquire a substantial family home in a desirable and extremely convenient central city location.
Warkworth Street lies within a conservation area within the highly sought after Kite district of the city, just a few hundred yards from Parkers Piece and Christ’s Pieces. The heart of the city centre with its extensive shopping and cultural facilities, colleges and tree lined River Cam is just a short walk away.
Sports enthusiasts are well served with Parkside Swimming Pool, Kelsey Kerridge Sports centre and Fenner’s Cricket Ground all within proximity. Cambridge is not only world renowned for its academic achievements but is also an important centre for the “high-tech” and “bio-tech” Industries including the University Research and Development laboratories, Science Park, ARM, Microsoft, Astra Zeneca and Addenbrookes Hospital/Biomedical Campus. For the commuter, there is a mainline railway station within about three quarters of a mile providing regular services to King’s Cross and Liverpool Street in about 52 minutes and 67 minutes respectively.
