5 bedroom detached house for sale

No Need To Nudge Past End Of Lane Gossipers With Your Own Private Pool! This gorgeous Edwardian home is near the leisure centre but you won’t have to brave a public swim ever again. It’s got five bedrooms, an annex, a summerhouse and an outdoor pool.

Why wait for your holidays to wake up and dive straight into an invigorating morning swim? When you’ve got your own private pool you can enjoy a Wim Hof style icy dip every day.

The private outdoor pool isn’t the only thing that makes you think of a high end holiday rental.

The current owners have lovingly refurbished the property during their 34 years here, creating a wonderful space that’s perfect for entertaining and getting the most out of our busy family lives.

One of the things that makes you think this could be a luxury Airbnb is there’s so much outside space to enjoy.
The outdoor pool is a real highlight of the large south facing garden but there's also a covered cooking area for al fresco dining on warm summer evenings and a spacious garden room that could be used as a home office, a gym, or simply a place to unwind with a good book.

Beyond the garden room lies another secluded area, previously used as a vegetable plot and orchard, offering a peaceful place for anyone with green fingers to escape.

For those who love DIY, crafting or ‘Repair Shop’ tinkering, there's also a generously sized shed/workshop.

Heading inside, the ground floor has a welcoming entrance hall with beautiful solid wood block flooring that leads to a bay fronted lounge with a fireplace and a separate dining room with French doors that lead out to the substantial terrace.

The shaker-style kitchen blends old and new to fabulous effect, with plenty of space for culinary creativity or just catching up with a cuppa.

The adjoining utility room keeps laundry chores tucked neatly away, with enough space for a large American style fridge freezer too.

If you head past the handy downstairs cloakroom there’s a home office/study and beyond that a large family room with gorgeous garden views.

Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized double bedrooms (two with built-in wardrobes) and the luxurious four piece family bathroom on the first floor.

Without a doubt, one of the standout features of this property is the two-bedroom annex. One of the bedrooms, a spacious double, is located on the second floor and includes ample storage in the eaves. In addition to a family bathroom, the annex also features a kitchen/diner and a downstairs shower room.

It’s accessible both from the back garden and via its own entrance at the front (through a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it door within the garage door). Also accessible from upstairs in the main house.

It offers excellent potential for multi-generational living, a guest suite or even a lucrative holiday let.
The open plan ground floor of the annex has a bespoke wood kitchen with granite worktops, a small W.C/ shower room and French doors that open to the back garden patio.

A spiral staircase leads upstairs (so it may not be ideal for Granny…), where there's a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a bathroom and small room that would be perfect as a study or snug.

This gorgeous family home is less than 10 minutes walk from Whittlesey town centre.

You pass the Manor Leisure Centre on the way.

Chances are you won’t need to use the 25m pool but it does have a state of the art gym and range of classes for all ages. There’s even a soft play for the kids.

If you prefer big name stores, restaurants and cinemas, it’s so easy to jump on the train to Peterborough. The station is also less than 10 minutes walk away.

Being so close to the station also means this could be the ideal base if you need to commute into London, for work or pleasure. Frequent trains from Peterborough get you to Kings Cross platform in around an hour as well as a direct line to Cambridge and Stansted Airport.

If you have younger children, Park Lane Primary and New Road Primary are both really close. They’re both walkable in just over 10 minutes, so you can say goodbye to school run traffic stress.

It’s not much further for older kids. Sir Harry Smith Community College (rated “Good” by Ofsted) is around fifteen minutes walk away.

Viewed from the front you would find it hard to believe this attractive Edwardian detached family home has so much to offer!

It offers the perfect blend of period charm, modern convenience and luxurious features.

With five bedrooms, a versatile annex and a stunning garden complete with a swimming pool, covered cooking area, and garden room, this property provides ample space for family life and entertaining.
