5 bedroom detached house for sale

A beautifully appointed spacious and modern detached family home with garaging and lovely garden, in a convenient central city setting, but yet with easy access to countryside too

Description

Occupying a discreet end of a cul-de-sac position, this attractive detached house is fabulously appointed and presented throughout. It offers spacious accommodation with a high standard of finish, coupled with a fabulous flow for professional couples and families alike, with generous parking, garaging and private landscaped garden, with a backdrop to mature deciduous trees.

Conveniently located for The Peterborough School and city’s mainline railway station, the property forms one of 14 executive houses that were constructed in 2015. The fact that this will be the first time that this fabulous home has been sold, underlines the attributes and convenience of its setting and appeal.

The house is entered from a hooded entrance storm porch into a wide tile floored reception hallway, offering ample space to meet and greet guests. The hallway is flanked by an office, with bespoke fitted desk and bookcase units, and a fabulously proportioned sitting room, to which double doors open, with a large south facing bay window and open fireplace. The ground floor is entirely under-floor heated.

The tiled flooring continues into the statement family dining kitchen. This beautifully proportioned triple aspect room has zoned kitchen, eating and seating areas, with both bifold and french doors that open to the garden. The fitted suite incorporates an extensive array of wall and base units, as well as a large island unit offering plenty of prep space, under Corian worktops and incorporates a suite of integrated Siemens appliances, including five-ring hob, multi-function fan and microwave ovens, dishwasher and double fridge-freezer. In addition, the adjoining utility offers further ancillary and boot room storage, together with the plumbing for white goods and a side entrance door.

The first floor landing is spacious and offers access to the five bedrooms. The principal and guest bedroom suites both incorporate walk-in dressing rooms and fabulously appointed en suite shower rooms. The full suite family bathroom serves the three further double bedrooms, whilst in the unlikely event that further accommodation be required, there is precedent in the Crescent to suggest that the attic may offer potential for conversion, subject to appropriate consents.

The property is approached at the end a private block paved driveway. There is space to park several vehicles, with access to a linked double garage, with electric up and over door, and space for the creation of additional parking to the east side of the house. The formal landscaped garden lies to the rear of the house, accessed from the kitchen and dining area. Largely lawned, the gardens have a variety of well stocked flowering and shrub borders, with dining terraces, with deciduous trees lining the eastern side beyond the garden boundary.
