This three-bedroom semi-detached house on High Street, Fletton, offers an accessible first step onto the property ladder with no onward chain and off-street parking. Located within easy walking distance of Peterborough city centre and the station, the home provides straightforward, practical accommodation across two reception rooms, a modern-feeling kitchen and a family bathroom.
The house has solid, mid-20th century construction with double-glazed windows and central heating via a mains-gas boiler, giving comfortable, economical basics. The plot includes a gated driveway, garage and a decent rear garden suitable for children or container gardening. The footprint is compact (about 776 sq ft) so rooms are modest but useable for everyday family life or rental occupancy.
There is scope to add value through modest updating: better insulation to solid brick walls, kitchen or bathroom modernisation, and reconfiguration or storage improvements to maximise living space. Buyers should note the property was built c.1930–49 and glazing predates 2002, so some fabric and energy-efficiency upgrades are likely to deliver both comfort and savings.
Be frank about the local context: the area scores as deprived with higher-than-average crime levels, which may concern some buyers. For first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors, the location’s connectivity and low council tax band are definite positives, but consider costs for targeted improvements and security measures when assessing the purchase.
