Description

There is a clean sunny room available for one person to rent, in an extensively updated house at 24 The Paddocks, Off Coldhams Lane, CB1 3HG, near the very large Sainsbury's in Brooks Road.

The furniture is mainly made from pine and includes armchair, wardrobe and single bed. The room has had some freshening paint work and is in very good condition.

The kitchen is equipped with a microwave, toaster, washing machine (which has a large quiet drum), multiple large fridge freezers, electric fan-assisted oven and gas cooker hob. The bathroom has a shower and bath and there is a separate downstairs water closet.

I would prefer to have a tenant that wants the room for more than three months, say six months or a year.

The house is warmed with central heating and this gives almost instant hot water. There is also double glazing, cavity wall insulation and loft insulation to keep the house comfy.

Overall the house has eight living spaces or bedrooms due to the two storey extension.

There are no extra bills - no need to sign up to long term utility contracts. The rent covers the cost of internet, gas, electricity, insurance, water rates and council tax (band D).

There are drying facilities in an airing cupboard and outside, there is a rotary clothes drying frame.

The room is fed with an externally amplified TV aerial connection for the best signal. The wireless internet connection is via 802.11ac with wired option (1Gb twisted pair Cat 8) also available. Both are super fast.

There is video that was taken and published on YouTube, "Room for Rent, Cambridge, CB1, UK with 600Mb broadband", which has a walk through of the room, kitchen and bathroom. A simple search for the text in the quotes on YouTube will take you to this video. A search on YouTube with the following YouTube code 2n_rBhk7O9A will also show it.

The house has bicycle locking rings. It is located close to a late opening supermarket (Sainsbury's Brooks Road / Coldhams Lane). There is extra storage space available in the loft and garage.

The house is located in a quiet cul-de-sac, at The Paddocks, Off Coldhams Lane, Cambridge, CB1 3HG. The What3Words website address is "Scouts Issue Trial". The actual location as displayed on the Spareroom website's generated map is inaccurate by about 20m. The map and pictures that are part of the advert that I have provided are more accurate.

The ideal house sharer will be tidy and friendly. If you would like to discuss any further details or arrange a viewing please contact using the telephone number provided or through the Spareroom email system.

NB: If you zoom on the Spareroom map twice or maybe more "Room For Rent Accommodation Cambridge" in purple text and icon appear on the map giving the correct location of the house! (This is probably because the Spareroom website is using Google maps.)
