Description
Set in the highly desirable location of Longthorpe, this three/four bedroom detached home offers over 1600sqft of living accommodation. With two reception rooms, a modern kitchen/breakfast room, two bathrooms and an extensive driveway (with room for up to 7 cars) and garage, this home could be for you.
Upon approaching this home, you will instantly be drawn by its kerb appeal. Set on Apsley Way, just off Thorpe Road, this home sits back from the road and has an attractive front garden with mature trees and shrubs. An extensive driveway and single garage lead down to the home itself.
Upon entering the home, there is a large entrance hallway which leads off into the lounge, kitchen, fourth bedroom (currently being used as a dining room and study) with an adjoining shower room. The 25ft lounge sits to the left of the entrance hallway and is very spacious with lots of natural light entering from both the front and rear of the property. There is ample dining space to the rear of this room as well. The kitchen can be accessed via either the utility room or the dining area, ensuring the home flows smoothly and feels open and spacious.
The kitchen has a range of modern cabinetry units and includes a double oven, electric hob and integrated dishwasher as well as space for an American fridge freezer. Once again, a large window allows for views of the rear garden to be enjoyed from here. The utility room is also spacious and also has access out into the rear garden.
A conservatory with French doors out into the garden is a great space to enjoy throughout the year whilst also providing welcome continuity between the home and garden areas.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, with two of these room benefitting from integrated wardrobe space. The very large master suite comes with plenty of storage options. There is a large storage unit situated on the landing, which provides an excellent space to create a study area or reading nook and also a large airing cupboard with fitted shelving, containing a hot water tank. With a little ingenuity and planning, there is enough space here to create a fifth bedroom on this floor either by converting the master bedroom into two doubles or creating a single bedroom within the landing area.
Completing the accommodation on the floor is the bathroom suite. It's a large bathroom which is contemporary in nature and complimented by floor to ceiling tiles.
The house is mains gas supplied and uPVC double glazed throughout and has a modern Worcester boiler. There is also access to a large, boarded loft space allowing for plenty of storage.
Outside, the rear garden is attractive and easily maintained. Shrubs and trees border the garden lawn, providing a high degree of privacy and there is a patio and decking area too for entertaining. To the front, an attractive garden ensures this home's appeal and a single garage with personnel door is convenient. There is side access to the rear of the house via a lockable gate as well as ample storage space on the other side of the building.
The location is ideal being a short walk to the popular and well-regarded local gastro pub, The Fox & Hounds as well as walking distance to Ferry Meadows, the rowing lake, and even the city centre. Longthorpe has a post office and shop and there are further amenities in nearby Netherton and South Bretton. In terms of schooling, Apsley Way is walking distance to Longthorpe Primary School and pre-school, as well as Thorpe Primary School and Jack Hunt Secondary School. Within a 10 minute drive, Castor CE Primary School is also within reach, as is The Peterborough School (independent) or The King's School. The Peterborough City Hospital is also a short drive from the house, as is the train station.
Peterborough itself is a rapidly growing modern city with superb transport links being less than an hour to London on the train as well as being situated on the A1 enabling easy access to towns and cities up and down the country by car. The city is also about to undergo a major redevelopment of its station quarter costing £65 million and is planning for a regeneration of the leisure facilities around the embankment, including a proposed Olympic-grade swimming pool complex under current plans.
The current owners have lived in the house for over 10 years and have enjoyed their time in this spacious and light house in what is a very safe neighbourhood and ideal location. Despite being well appointed already, there are further options for the next owners to add their own stamp and/or extend or modify to add further value.
