5 bedroom detached house

If You Work From Home Or Struggle With Work/Life Balance, This Could Be The Answer!

The versatile annex with a separate entrance means you can go to work without going to work. Or it’s somewhere for granny to stay if she struggles with stairs.

This is a spacious and stylish detached property that’s ready for you to move in and make yourselves at home.

There’s plenty of space for everyone on the ground floor, with a sociable kitchen/diner and a choice of reception rooms.

And upstairs there are four double bedrooms and a modern four-piece family bathroom.

But it’s the versatile self-contained annex that could put this property at the top of your “must view” list.

The annex has a separate entrance so it could be a ground floor bedroom with an accessible shower room—perfect if you have an older relative who lives with you, or a teenager looking for a little independence.

But if you work from home or run a home-based business where clients come to visit, it could be the ideal solution if you struggle to balance work and home life. You could go to work without ever leaving your spacious 445m² (4,700 ft²) plot.

The ground floor has a spacious living room which goes from front to back, with a conservatory at the rear. The conservatory has a solid roof to keep the temperature in check, so you can enjoy it all year round.

There’s also a separate reception room and a modern kitchen/diner with plenty of storage in the shaker-style fitted units, space for a dining table, and a breakfast bar.

Upstairs has four double bedrooms, a stylish four-piece family bathroom, and a handy space on the landing which could be used as a study.

The back garden is private and not overlooked. There’s a paved seating area and a lawn, along with a substantial outbuilding that will be great for storage—and it also offers potential for conversion (STPP, of course).

Parking is no issue here—there are plenty of options. You’ve got a driveway for off-road parking. Need more? You can even remove the front wall and convert the front garden for extra parking—perfect for family, visitors, or clients. And if that’s still not enough, just park on the street like many others do.

This superb family home has a handy Co-op just around the corner and is only a 10-minute walk from Whittlesey town centre (or three minutes in the car).

Here you’ll find a range of local shops and restaurants, a leisure centre, and a library.

If you have younger children, Park Lane Nursery & Primary School is the closest—it’s only 10 minutes walk away, or 3 minutes in the car.

For older kids, Sir Harry Smith Community College (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is around 15 minutes walk away. It’s next to Alderman Jacobs Primary School—another great option for younger kids if you want everyone on the same site.

Whittlesey is a lovely, quiet market town, but it’s also well connected. Peterborough is just over 20 minutes’ drive away or 10 minutes by train from Whittlesea station.

It’s the ideal base if you need to commute into London—hop on an East Coast Mainline train from Peterborough and be in Kings Cross in around an hour.
