Broadway, Yaxley, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire

So Many Memories Have Been Made Here - Now It's Time For You To Make Yours. Five reception rooms, a 30ft games room and a south-facing garden on nearly half an acre. But more than that, this spacious and versatile home has the kind of warmth that you only get with almost 100 years of family life.

A house built in 1930 and loved ever since carries something you can feel the moment you walk in. It's there in the original encaustic tiled floor of the entrance hall, in the stained glass front door, in the ornate plasterwork ceilings that stretch across the reception rooms.

The current family have been here since 2015 and raised four boys within these walls. They've had summers that played out almost entirely in the garden. Easter egg hunts that became annual traditions. The whole family - sons, partners, grandchildren - gathered together without anyone feeling on top of each other.

The ground floor alone gives you more choice and options than most families ever get to enjoy. The sitting room has a working gas fire and a warmth that makes it the natural place to end the day. The family room stretches nearly 30ft - as you’ll see from the photos, big enough for a full-size table tennis table with a sofa alongside it and still room to spare.

The extended kitchen is a proper family kitchen, with a large island, a skylight overhead and views straight out to the garden. A separate dining room, a snug and a substantial conservatory that currently works as a study round out the ground floor - five reception rooms in total, each with a clear purpose.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a genuinely impressive room with floor-to-ceiling fitted wardrobes painted a deep teal - one of those rooms that has already had some thought put into it. The luxurious ensuite has been fully refitted with twin basins, a walk-in shower and a separate bath. The family bathroom has been refitted too.

Three further bedrooms complete the first floor, with the two larger doubles both comfortably sized.
Outside, the south-facing garden measures almost half an acre. It’s mature and private, with a large paved terrace that catches the sun from mid-morning onwards. The current family used it hard and loved every minute of it.

A fob-controlled electric gate secures the drive which has space for at least five cars, with an oversized double garage alongside - also fob-controlled, with three-phase electric in place.

Yaxley is a sought-after village with a real community feel, a good range of local amenities and easy access to Peterborough - it’s about 10 minutes in the car - and the A1 north and south.

This is a home that has given one family the space, the warmth and the setting for three generations to grow up together. Now it's ready to do exactly the same for yours.
