There are properties that sit quietly in a city and properties that genuinely belong to it. This characterful end of terrace home, part of a carefully converted Victorian building on Missin Gate, is firmly in the latter category. The handsome exposed brick facade, set on the corner of one of Ely's most characterful streets and adjacent to the Jubilee Gardens, makes an immediate impression.
The entrance hall leads into a sitting room with stunning full chimney breast of original exposed brick which dominates one wall and adds real drama, providing a focal point that no amount of modern interior design could replicate. Opposite, a large picture window floods the room with natural light. The second bedroom on this floor is a well-proportioned single, also benefiting from a generous picture window with lovely natural light, ideal as a dedicated home office or study for anyone working remotely, and genuinely one of the better home working spaces you'll find in a rental property. The bathroom is finished to a modern standard throughout, with a P-shaped bath with shower over.
Stairs rise to the first floor kitchen and dining space, a light, comfortable room with a good-sized sash window overlooking the rooftops of the surrounding period buildings. Fitted with light maple-style units, gas hob, oven and integrated washing machine, it's a practical, sociable space that works well for two people who enjoy cooking and eating together without the formality of a separate dining room.
The top floor is where the property truly distinguishes itself. The principal bedroom is a genuinely impressive space, large, quiet and full of character, with a vaulted ceiling crossed by original exposed timber beams that give the room a warmth and substance rarely found in a conversion of any era. Window to three aspects bring in excellent light, and the outlook across Cherry Hill toward the cathedral is one that deserves to be mentioned twice. It is, by any measure, a bedroom worth coming home to.
Jubilee Gardens are on the doorstep for morning runs or evening walks. The city centre is a short stroll away, placing Ely's independent shops, galleries, bookshops and café culture within easy reach, along with the weekly Thursday, Saturday and Sunday markets and the popular Farmers' Market on the second Saturday of each month and ‘Foodie Fridays’ throughout the summer. The food and drink scene here is well worth exploring, Draymond Sons on Fore Hill offers craft ales brewed in-house with a relaxed, characterful atmosphere; the Poets House provides refined dining and a well-stocked bar; the Almonry Restaurant in the cathedral grounds suits a special occasion; and the Ely Grazing Company and Amelie Café cover the more everyday but no less enjoyable options. The riverside adds another dimension, a walk along the Great Ouse followed by lunch or a drink at one of the waterside pubs is the kind of afternoon that reminds you why you chose to live here.
The mainline railway station is within comfortable walking distance, placing London King's Cross at around seventy minutes on a direct service and Cambridge under twenty minutes away, a combination that makes this a genuinely practical base for commuters as well as an enjoyable place to simply live.
NB: Please note that the kitchen/dining room photographs have been enhanced to show new flooring that is due to be laid.
