Set on a generous corner plot in Dogsthorpe, this three-bedroom semi-detached home offers a clear opportunity for a growing family to create a long-term base. The property is offered chain free and sits a short distance from Peterborough city centre, local shops and a range of schools including Dogsthorpe Infant School and Thomas Deacon Academy.
Internally the layout is traditional and practical: living room, kitchen, ground-floor W/C, three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The living room and bedrooms provide a straightforward canvas for cosmetic updating and reconfiguration to suit modern family life. Double glazing and mains gas central heating are already in place.
Outside, the large private rear garden and front driveway are strong family features — plenty of space for children to play and for future extension (subject to consent). The solid mid-20th-century build is typical of the era but the cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should factor potential energy-efficiency improvements into their plans.
This home suits buyers seeking value and long-term potential rather than a turnkey purchase. In an area with mixed local amenities and good mobile/broadband connectivity, it will appeal to first-time buyers upsizing, young families and investors prepared to carry out sensible refurbishment.
