Loft conversions in Cambridge
The sun is low on a Friday in Cambridge, as the city's noise softens. A loft hatch in a 1930s semi-detached house will soon open up a new room in the home.
What Cambridge's lofts are like
Cambridge's housing stock is a mix of period and modern properties, with many 1930s semi-detached homes found off Huntingdon Road, Cherry Hinton and Market Road. These homes often have cold, uninsulated lofts. The city's road layout, with narrow streets and tight corners, makes access for larger vehicles challenging, especially around the historic core. Some older properties have steep pitches and clay tiles, which can complicate loft conversion designs. Drainage can be an issue, with combined sewers and old clay pipes prone to blockages near Mill Road and Castle Street.
