Radcliffe & Rust Estate Agents Cambridge are delighted to offer for sale this bright and modern apartment in the popular development of Beacon Rise, CB5. Located within walking distance of Cambridge city centre and with fantastic amenities close by, including Newmarket Road retail park and The Beehive Centre which include shops, eateries and gyms, this property offers a prime position within the city. The property is on the fourth / top floor of the building and offers three double bedrooms and a generous open plan kitchen, dining and living space which leads to a huge wrap around balcony overlooking Cambridge's rooftops. The balcony offers views of both the front and rear of the Beacon Rise building and makes this stunning apartment the perfect place to relax and entertain.

The apartment is accessed via an intercom system at the downstairs entrance offering the new owner piece of mind knowing they will have a good level of security at their property. There are lifts at each end of the building leading to all floors as well as stairs. This property is located on the fourth floor. Upon entering the property you are welcomed into the L shaped hallway with bedrooms at one end of the hallway and living space at the other. With grey wooden style flooring and crisp white walls, the hallway is a generous width and could be utilised with additional furniture such as book shelves as the current owner has done. Within the hallway there is also three storage cupboards, one of which houses the property's air filtration system whilst the other two can be used for storage of other clothing and household items. The first room you come to on the right hand side of the front door is bedroom two. This good sized double has a large window overlooking the North aspect of the building and could comfortably fit a double bed and additional storage furniture as required. Next to bedroom two is the family bathroom which has a bath with dual shower heads and glass screen, countertop hand basin with cupboard storage below and a built-in vanity W.C. with shelf above. The bathroom vanity is a dark wood colour and has a white shelf above. Behind the W.C. and sink and continuing into the bath are grey rectangle shaped wall tiles and there is also a stainless steel coloured heated towel rail in the bathroom. The master suite is next to the family bathroom. This bedroom has the real WOW factor - extensive in size, this bedroom has triple aspect windows and French doors leading directly on to the private wrap around balcony. The master suite is flooded with light and has ample space for a large bed, storage furniture and possibly lounge furniture if required by the new owner. The master suite also has the added bonus of an en-suite which has a large walk-in shower, vanity W.C. and counter top hand basin in the same colours and style as the family bathroom. Bedroom three is on the opposite side of the hallway to bedrooms one and two. This bedroom could fit a double bed but would also work well as a generous single, an office or work from home space if required.

At the opposite end of the hallway is the open plan kitchen, dining and living room. A vast L-shaped space with dual aspect windows and French doors, this room is flooded with light and also leads directly on to the balcony making it the perfect place to utilise the indoor outdoor living concept. The kitchen has white gloss handleless wall and base units with a black gloss worktop and upstands. Within the kitchen there is a double oven, induction hob, statement cooker hood, integrated dishwasher, full height fridge / freezer, washing machine and one and a half stainless steel in-built sinks. The dining end of the room could easily sit six to eight people while the living space is large enough for an L-shaped sofa and additional furniture.

The apartment's private balcony is the real jewel in the crown for this property. Accessible from the master bedroom and the living and dining space, the balcony wraps around the front, back and whole side of the building and offers views over Newmarket Road to the front, the allotments and Cambridge treetops and rooftops to the rear and the building's communal gardens to the side. Having a balcony this extensive is very unique and the safety glass surround means the views are uninterrupted. The area of the balcony overlooking the rear of the building is large enough for a dining table and chairs meaning al fresco dining can be a daily occurrence during the warmer months.

Included as part of the property sale, there are two allocated parking spaces in the secure underground carpark beneath the building where there is also secure bike storage. To the rear of the building, there are communal gardens which are maintained by the building's caretakers.
