5 bedroom detached house for sale

A modern, spacious & beautifully appointed home with planning for a loft conversion, detached double garage with studio annex above, and private gardens in a leafy central city setting

Description

Conveniently located for The Peterborough School and city’s mainline railway station, this fabulous property forms one of 14 executive houses that were constructed in 2015, and occupies a private position within an attractive cul-de-sac.

This desirable home offers space, elegance and privacy and is well-presented throughout, with a great flow to its existing accommodation. It also benefits from consented plans to create additional space, if desired, within a loft conversion.

Couple this with generous parking on its long drive and an oversized detached double garage, above which there is a 2021 bedroom 6/study annex, and this is a fabulous and versatile property, ideal professional families and couples alike, with space for entertaining, extended families and home working.

Entered into a wide and inviting reception hallway, the hall passes a study/play room, double doors to a spacious sitting room, with a large south-east facing bay window and fireplace housing a wood burning stove, to the kitchen.

The wood-effect tiled flooring continues from the hallway into the standout family dining kitchen. This beautifully proportioned triple aspect room has zoned kitchen, dining and seating areas, with both bi-folding and French doors that open to the garden. The fitted suite incorporates an extensive array of wall and base units, as well as a large island unit offering plenty of prep space, under Corian worktops and incorporates a suite of integrated Siemens appliances, including five-ring hob, multi-function fan and microwave ovens, dishwasher and double fridge-freezer. In addition, the adjoining utility offers further ancillary and boot room storage, together with the plumbing for white goods and a side entrance door.

The first floor landing is spacious and offers access to the five bedrooms. The principal and guest bedroom suites both incorporate walk-in dressing rooms and fabulously appointed en suite shower rooms. The full suite family bathroom serves the three further double bedrooms.

The property’s private driveway offers space for a number of vehicles, and runs almost the length of the garden, leading to the detached double garage, with electric roller shutter door. The first floor of the garage has been converted into a spacious studio suite, of sixth bedroom, with en suite shower room and air conditioning.

The formal landscaped garden lies to the rear of the house, accessed from the kitchen and dining area, as well as from the driveway and garage studio. It is largely lawned, with a variety of well stocked flowering and shrub borders, dining terraces, with deciduous trees and high boundary hedges offering privacy, with a garden terrace and hot tub to the rear of the garage.
