Summary - 38 PADHOLME ROAD PETERBOROUGH PE1 5EE
3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Three-bedroom renovation project with strong investment potential close to transport.
City-centre location, short walk to shops and amenities
A three-bedroom Victorian end-terrace in Peterborough city centre with clear scope for value-led improvement. The house offers a traditional brick facade, two floors of living space and an overgrown rear garden ready for restoration. At 926 sq ft, the layout includes an open-plan lounge/diner, kitchen, three bedrooms and a single bathroom — a straightforward canvas for renovation projects.
This property is sold freehold and sits in a highly connected location: excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and close to schools, shops and city amenities. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed though installation date is unknown. The solid brick walls likely lack insulation, so buyers should allow for thermal upgrade costs when budgeting improvements.
Important negatives are factual: the house needs renovation, has an EPC rating of F, and sits in an area with high crime and very high deprivation. The garden is overgrown and requires clearance and boundary work. These factors lower upfront appeal but also reduce price relative to refurbished comparables, making it suitable for investors or buyers prepared to renovate.
Given the combination of city-centre location, freehold tenure and clear improvement potential, this property suits purchasers seeking a hands-on project or a rental investment. Budget for energy-efficiency works, cosmetic refurbishment and basic security improvements to unlock the best resale or lettings value.
