Description

Guide Price (£450,000 - £475,000)
This beautiful thatched cottage is set on Thorpe Road in a wonderful location. Dating back to the 1700's, this grade II listed cottage offers two bedrooms and three reception rooms to include an orangery with views of the rear garden.

Thorpe Road is one of the finest locations in Peterborough and if you're looking for a unique, characterful home, then this one could be for you. There is a walled garden to the front of the home and off road parking leading to the single garage.

Upon entering the property, the lounge and dining room sit adjacent to one another with the kitchen and orangery to the rear. The lounge is very cosy, and complimented by a fireplace and dual aspect windows. It leads through to the kitchen and orangery or back into the entrance hallway.

The extended orangery is without doubt the heart of this home and provides beautiful views of the landscaped garden and pond. Extended back in 2008, this orangery had added a great space to this home and it compliments the original features of the home too. The traditional kitchen sits just off the orangery, allowing for seamless integration between the two rooms. There is a handy boot room and WC too, which complete the accommodation on the ground floor.

Upstairs there are two double bedrooms and the bathroom. Bedroom one comes with a large dressing area and plenty of built in wardrobes too, with bedroom two also containing built in wardrobes. The bathroom sits between the two and contains a freestanding bath, separate shower cubicle, toilet and hand basin.

Outside, the rear garden is beautiful and well landscaped throughout. There is a large pond, a Summerhouse and plenty of attractive plants, shrubs and flowers around the boundaries of the garden. This garden is great for relaxing and listening to the birds makes for a peaceful place!

This home is steeped in history and offers plenty of character throughout. These homes do not come available very often so early interest is vital. If you would like more information, please contact the office.
