4 bedroom character property for sale

Tenure: Freehold

Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Peterborough most sought after locations, we are delighted to present this extended 4-bedroom detached period cottage on approximately half an acre.

Believed to date back to the 17th century, this well-presented property enjoys many original period features including exposed beam ceilings and stone internal walls.

A downstairs double-Bedroom linked to a separate Sitting Room, could be used as Annexe Accommodation, with further benefits including a brand-new Upvc Conservatory & triple-vehicle Carport.

There was planning consent to build two-detached bungalows on the plot, but this would need refreshing.

This property is not listed and a viewing is highly recommended.

Outside
The property is situated at the very end of a private cul-de-sac. Access through wrought iron gates leads to an extensive block-paved driveway, which provides off-road parking for many vehicles. This leads in turn to a triple carport that was installed in 2012.

Situated alongside the carport is a timber log cabin that measures 17'8 x 12'7 internally and has windows and a door to front and double doors to the side, with power & light connected. Currently being used as a hobby room, it could be used as a studio, additional office or workshop.

The entire plot measures 0.45 of an acre and is fully enclosed by mature trees, hedging and fencing. The rear garden had been landscaped and is mainly laid to lawn with flower and shrub borders. There is a raised paved patio area overlooking the garden/ rear of the property and a covered raised timber decking patio/ party area at the side of the property.

Notes
Planning consent was once acquired to erect two detached bungalows on the plot, but this has since expired and would need refreshing if required. While the property is believed to date back to the 17th Century, it is not listed.

The Conservatory was replaced in 2012 and comes with the usual 10-year guarantees and FENSA certificate.
