An attractive and well-appointed Edwardian townhouse on one of Peterborough's favoured residential streets, in a convenient position for the city’s centre, amenities and green spaces.

Description

An attractive Edwardian town house situated in a popular and convenient position for the city’s centre and its amenities, along with The Peterborough School and Nene Country Park, for county walks.

This attractive semi-detached townhouse, which retains many of the Edwardian era’s sought after features and elegant symmetry, has a lovely flow to its family friendly accommodation. It has been significantly improved by the current owners, who have carried out an impressive, light filled, family kitchen extension, which connects marvellously with the garden, amongst other enhancements.

A stained-glazed front door opens from the parking into a wide and welcoming Minton tiled stairwell hallway. To the right, there is an elegantly proportioned drawing room, with good symmetry, high ceiling, large west facing bay window and an attractive period fireplace.

The hallway continues, past a cloakroom/W.C., spacious, wooden floored family/dining room, with a wood burning stove and French doors to the garden, which is open to the kitchen/breakfast room, offering a large open plan core to the heart of this house.

The vaulted, triple-aspect kitchen/breakfast room has an east facing gable, which floods the room with morning sunshine, within which French doors open to the garden. With Amtico wood flooring, it combines space for informal dining with an extensive fitted suite with a range of wall and base units under quartz worktops, incorporating space for an American-style fridge freezer, integrated dishwasher, Belfast sink and a Belling double-oven, 8-ring range cooker.

The elegant staircase rises from the hallway to the first floor landing, which accesses the four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The elegantly proportioned principal bedroom is west facing, overlooking the street scene, with a large bay window and an en suite shower room. Double bedrooms two and three, along with bedroom four which is currently furnished and used as a home office, are well placed for the well-appointed and modern family bathroom.

Outside: The property has curb appeal, with a forecourt front garden and driveway parking for one vehicle. The east facing rear garden is long and largely lawned, with deep flowering and shrub borders and established trees and shrubs, providing a good degree of privacy. It is an ideal garden for young families and for couples with pets, with Nene Country Park nearby.

Location

Thorpe Lea Road is one of Peterborough’s favoured addresses in the suburb of Longthorpe, close to Ferry Meadows Country Park and yet within one mile’s walk of Peterborough Railway Station in the city's centre.

The Cathedral City of Peterborough is a regional centre for commerce, industry, retail, recreation and leisure, with theatres, cinemas, ice skating, bowling, sports centres and varied sports clubs.

The property is close to Peterborough Railway Station which offers commuter services to London Kings Cross (from about 45 minutes) and to Cambridge, whilst the city also has good north-south and east-west road links via the A1, A14, A47 and A15.

The River Nene and the Ferry Meadows Country Park are 0.5 miles from the property, with easy access to Peterborough’s “Green Wheel” network of cycle/jogging routes that provide over 45 miles of continuous sustainable routes around the city, riverside and green spaces for residents to enjoy.

Schooling is also well catered for. The Peterborough School (an Independent school catering for all ages) is 0.2 miles from the property, whilst The King’s (The Cathedral) School on Park Road is two miles walk from the property, among other primary and secondary school options. Further afield, the market towns of Stamford and Oundle are both 12 miles, with Uppingham 21 miles, each with their renowned independent schools.
