Glover Drive, Peterborough, PE4

Guide Price (£400,000 - £425,000)

Positioned on Glover Drive with open views across green space to the front, this five-bedroom detached home offers the balance a lot of buyers are looking for — proper living space downstairs, five usable bedrooms upstairs, and practical additions that make everyday life easier.

The outlook is the first thing you notice. Instead of looking straight into another row of houses, you’ve got open countryside and a nature area opposite. It gives the house breathing space and a sense of separation that’s hard to replicate on modern developments.

Step inside and the layout works well from the outset. The lounge sits to the front with a bay window framing those views, and double doors connect it through to the kitchen/dining room. You can close it off when you want a quieter evening, or open it up when you’ve got people round — simple, flexible, effective.

The kitchen/diner is the social heart of the house. Over 24ft in length, it comfortably handles everyday family life and bigger gatherings. There’s a breakfast bar for quick mornings, space for a proper dining table, and French doors leading straight out to the garden. It’s bright, practical and well proportioned.

Off the kitchen you’ll find a separate utility room, keeping the noise and laundry out of the main living space, along with a downstairs WC.

The garage has been thoughtfully adapted. The rear section is now a home gym — a great use of space that could equally work as an office, studio or hobby room. The front section remains as secure storage, so you haven’t lost that all-important practicality.

Upstairs, there are five bedrooms in total. Four are genuine doubles, and the fifth works well as a single bedroom or dedicated study. The main bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, while the remaining rooms are served by a clean, modern family bathroom. It’s a layout that suits growing families, home working, or anyone needing flexibility.

The rear garden is fully enclosed and landscaped for ease — a combination of patio and lawn with defined seating areas. It’s private, manageable and ideal for summer evenings. To the front, there’s driveway parking, access to the store and a front garden, giving this property plenty of kerb appeal. There is also a charging point for electric vehicles.

A well-balanced, five-bedroom detached home in Gunthorpe with open views to the front and living space that works really well.
