3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Thorpe Road, Peterborough PE3

Set along Thorpe Road, one of Peterborough’s most established and highly regarded residential roads, this charming three-bedroom Victorian home combines period character with thoughtful modern improvements, over 1,140 sq ft of accommodation, a beautiful back garden and a substantial double garage.

There is an immediate warmth to the house, with its attractive period exterior setting the tone for the accommodation within. The front lounge provides a comfortable place to relax and features a contemporary fireplace, while the separate sitting room gives the ground floor a welcome degree of flexibility. It could serve as a cosy snug, playroom or home office, depending on the needs of its next owner.

Towards the rear of the home, the generous dining area stretches to almost 20ft and provides plenty of room for a large table. It is a sociable part of the house, well suited to family meals, entertaining friends or simply enjoying the garden outlook.

The adjoining kitchen was renovated in 2022 and has been designed in a clean, contemporary style, with a good range of fitted storage, worktop space and integrated cooking appliances. It complements the character of the house while giving the home the practical, modern finish needed for everyday life. A downstairs WC completes the ground-floor accommodation.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The main bedroom includes an extensive range of fitted wardrobes, while the second bedroom also benefits from fitted storage. The third bedroom offers enough space to accommodate a double bed and would also make an excellent guest room or home office.

The family shower room was renovated in 2020 and is finished with contemporary tiling and a generous walk-in shower, creating a smart and calming space.

The back garden is one of the home’s most appealing features. Immediately behind the house is a large paved patio with ample room for outdoor dining and seating. Beyond this lies a beautifully established garden filled with mature planting and well-stocked borders, giving it colour, privacy and a sense of maturity that only develops over time. It is a lovely setting in which to relax, entertain or enjoy the warmer months.

Alongside the garden is a substantial double garage, while the driveway provides further off-road parking-an especially valuable combination in such a central and sought-after setting.

Thorpe Road places the property within easy reach of Peterborough city centre, the railway station, local schools, green spaces and everyday amenities, while retaining the established surroundings for which Longthorpe is so well known.

This is a home with genuine warmth: Victorian character, flexible living space and carefully chosen improvements, all brought together by an exceptional garden and a highly desirable address.
