Property description

Courtyards which is situated just off Whittlesford Road, is an ingenious scheme of luxurious top quality homes of considerable picturesque appeal cleverly designed around a number of courts, which enjoys the serene atmosphere and intimate scale found in the \"Courts\" of the Cambridge Colleges. Each house is skilfully orientated to give maximum privacy with fine views over their gardens and landscaped communal areas which are generously endowed with a wealth of ornamental trees, bushes, cobbles and open lawned areas. Courtyards occupies the loveliest of settings situated in the south side of a small wood adjacent to the Cam which runs between Great and Little Shelford before reaching the famous Grantchester Meadows. The houses are set away from the road around communal green areas, which are jointly owned by all of the residents.
