Three-bedroom detached on a decent plot with garage and driveway

This chain-free three-bedroom detached house in Bretton offers straightforward family living with clear renovation potential. The property sits on a decent plot with off-road parking and a garage, plus a rear garden and a small patio — practical outdoor space for children or pets.
Internally the layout is traditional and usable: a large lounge, separate dining area opening to the garden, a utility/cloakroom and three bedrooms upstairs with a single family bathroom. The kitchen and many internal finishes are dated (1980s tiles and older fittings) and would benefit from modernization to unlock the home's full value.
Location brings convenience: nearby Bretton Centre shops, schools and Peterborough Hospital are all within easy reach. However buyers should be aware of material local factors — very high crime statistics and a high level of area deprivation — which will affect resale and rental demand. The home is best suited to a buyer prepared to refurbish for family occupation or to improve and revalue.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, excellent mobile and fast broadband connectivity, affordable council tax (Band C) and no onward chain, allowing a quicker move. Important negatives are the dated kitchen/bathroom, a single bathroom for three bedrooms, and the broader neighbourhood challenges that may require consideration by buyers and lenders.
