1 bedroom furnished flat in Carters Walk, Cottenham, South Cambridgeshire

Description

So I’ve been living in this flat in Cottenham, South Cambridgeshire, and I’m finally moving out — just wanted to share it with someone who might be looking for something quiet, well-equipped, and not too far from the town centre.

It’s a ground-floor maisonette with one bedroom, one bathroom, and a lounge that feels pretty spacious for a flat. I’ve actually lived here for a few years now and can vouch for how comfortable it is — everything’s already set up, so no hassle with buying furniture or setting up basic things.

The place has a smart setup: WiFi and ethernet from both the bedroom and lounge, a voice-activated tablet that lets you control the door camera, intercom, and even the lights — super handy for someone who likes a bit of smart home stuff. There’s also a door security camera with 2-way talk, and the heating is smart electric radiators with a timer, which means you don’t have to worry about it running all night.

Inside, it’s clean and tidy — laminate floors, brushed metal switches, and venetian blinds in both the bedroom and lounge. The lighting is mostly LED, so it doesn’t get hot or use much power. The kitchen has a full set of cutlery, pans, and crockery, and there’s a washing machine, fridge freezer, and cooker with hood. There’s also a microwave, a breakfast bar, and storage for all your kitchen gear.

The bedroom is 8.5m² — double bed, mattress protector, bedside chest, wardrobe with pull-out trays, and a dehumidifier with a smart plug. The bathroom is small but well set up with a modern shower, towel rail, and a good supply of basics like soap, toothbrush, and toilet roll.

Lounge has a sofa, scatter cushions, a TV unit with a built-in TV, and a decent amount of storage — including wardrobes and side tables. There’s also a desk area with a chair, a small wardrobe, and a mirror.

Parking’s included — two allocated spaces, plus visitors parking. There’s a private garden too, and access to a communal garden.

I’ve been in it for a while, so I know it’s a solid place to live — quiet, secure, and not too far from the centre. It’s a student-friendly flat, though no pets or smoking allowed, and it’s not really for families.

I’m moving in September 2025, so if you’re looking for something ready to move into, with all the basics covered, this might be it.

If you’re interested, I’ll be happy to chat — just drop a note or give me a call. I’m not charging any admin fees, and I’ve already got a lot of the details ready.

Reference number: 2585256
Price: £9 — just a quick note, it’s not much, but it’s what I’m offering.

No agent fees, no hidden costs — just a real flat, in a quiet spot, ready for someone to move in.
