Armstrong House on Regent Street sits at the very heart of Cambridge and this flat is one of those apartments that genuinely surprises on arrival. Completely redecorated throughout with new carpeting laid, it presents itself to a fresh and well-finished standard, and the rooms are considerably larger and more characterful than a city centre block might lead you to expect.

The entrance hall leads into an open plan sitting and dining room that is the standout space in the property, a generous, light-filled room with a sweeping curved window arrangement that wraps around the corner of the building, bringing in natural light from multiple aspects and giving the room a quality of space and character that is genuinely unusual in a flat of this type. Warm wood flooring runs throughout the sitting and dining area, and the kitchen connects directly from this space with tiled flooring, white shaker-style units, dark worktops and a well-specified range of appliances including oven, washing machine and fridge. Both bedrooms are very good-sized doubles, well proportioned, neutrally decorated and notably light and bright throughout and the bathroom with shower over bath is clean and well presented. Electric central heating serves the property throughout. A bike store to the rear of the block is a practical provision that in Cambridge is an everyday essential rather than a bonus, and the building itself is a purpose-built secure block in one of the city's best-connected addresses.

The location needs little elaboration for anyone who knows Cambridge. Regent Street places you within a short walk of the university buildings, the Fitzwilliam Museum, the Botanic Garden, Parker's Piece, the Grand Arcade and the full breadth of the city's independent shops, cafés and restaurants. Mill Road, Cambridge's most characterful and culturally vibrant street, is moments away, with its extraordinary density of independent restaurants, artisan food shops, cafés, a microbrewery tap room and the annual Winter Fair. Cambridge Railway Station, with direct services to London King's Cross at around fifty minutes on a fast service, is within comfortable cycling distance, and Addenbrooke's Hospital and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus are easily accessible for those working in that part of the city. The absence of parking is, in this location, entirely incidental the city's cycling infrastructure makes every part of Cambridge reachable quickly and easily without a car.

For a professional couple, postgraduate students or anyone wanting to be genuinely embedded in the life of one of the world's most remarkable cities, this flat offers a location and a quality of space that is difficult to better at this level.
