Burdett Grove, Whittlesey, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire

An end terrace with a more individual, almost detached feel.

Technically this is an end terrace, but that is not how it feels from the approach. The front door sits on the side elevation and, with garden space around the front and side, the house has a much more individual feel than a conventional terrace.

The owners had not planned to move. This was the home they were improving for themselves, rather than one prepared for a quick sale, but a change in their jobs now means they need to relocate. The work has been carried out with long term living in mind, and no expense has been spared in creating a home that feels complete.

That difference is clear inside. Rather than opening straight into the living room, the front door opens into a proper entrance hall. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, not two doubles and a box room. Add the downstairs WC, summer house, driveway and garage, and there is far more here than the frontage first suggests.

The entrance hall creates a proper sense of arrival, with tiled flooring, a contemporary vertical radiator, the staircase rising from the hall and solid oak doors leading to the ground floor rooms. There is also a downstairs WC, one of those practical extras that makes a real difference day to day.

The living and dining areas have been opened into one generous space that forms the heart of the home. Measuring 16'8" x 15'5", there is comfortable room for relaxing and dining without either area feeling squeezed. Amtico flooring runs throughout, while a front facing window and sliding doors to the garden bring in light from both sides.

The separate kitchen is well planned, with grey shaker style units, a built in oven, gas hob and extractor, integrated Hotpoint washing machine and a Franke bowl and a half sink beneath the window. Other thoughtful details include solid oak internal doors, Sharps fitted wardrobes, Hive controlled heating and an Ideal combi boiler fitted in December 2023.

Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, so there is no box room. The main bedroom measures 13'2" x 10'0" and has Sharps fitted wardrobes. The third bedroom also provides access to the boarded loft, which has a ladder, lighting and a digital TV aerial. The bathroom includes a bath with shower over, mirrored storage and a heated towel rail.

The end position gives this home more outside space. There are garden areas to the front and side as well as an enclosed rear garden, with lawn and separate paved areas for sitting out. The summer house has power and lighting, new blinds, several sockets and BT points, making it a useful space for home working, hobbies, exercise or simply somewhere separate to relax.

A block paved driveway leads to the garage, which has an electric garage door, lighting, several power points and a side personnel door. An outside tap, two double outdoor sockets and gated access add further practical detail.

The photographs show the finish well, but they cannot give you the true sense of the quality, space and feel of this home. It is rare at this price to walk into a property and feel there is nothing waiting to be done.
