Brookside Cottage, Barnwell, Peterborough, PE8

An attractive 1940's home with large garden, garage and parking, in need of some updating, set in the heart of this desirable village.

This attractive home was constructed in 1943 and occupies a superb plot, in the heart of the village.
It is elevated and set back from the roadside.

The spacious and light accommodation is set over two floors, and most rooms have a pleasing view over the gardens or the village brook.

The front door opens to the hall. Doors lead off to either side. The living room is a great size and enjoys views to the front and rear. The open fireplace makes a cosy focal point. A glazed door opens to the garden.

The dining kitchen is a great hub to the house and offers a range of wall and base units with worksurfaces and electric ovens and hob with extractor above. There is space for a fridge. The dining area over-looks the front garden and has a gas fire fitted to one wall. The gas fire has a back boiler which serves the central heating system.

The back hall has doors to either end. One to the drive and the other to the garden. Beyond, lies the sizeable utility / boot room. A cloakroom is set to one side.

Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the first floor landing. There are three good bedrooms. The main bedroom and the second bedroom, are both comfortable, double rooms, with views over the brook. The third bedroom is a generous single room with a lovely view up the garden.

The bathroom is also a good size and has had the bath removed and a large, walk-in shower installed.

The house sits behind an attractive, lawned front garden, retained by a stone wall. The drive to the side provides ample parking and leads on to the garage. This is much larger than a standard single garage.

The back garden was once the previous owners pride and joy, as well as a very productive source of fruit and vegetables. There is a patio at the back of the house with steps up, between the flower beds, to the lawn. Beyond are the, vegetable beds and an orchard with a number of species of fruit tree.

Agent's Note:- Although this house is perfectly habitable, it would benefit from some updating, which should be a well-worthwhile project, due to the wonderful plot size and the fabulous village location.
