This extended detached house on Park Road sits within easy walking distance of Peterborough city centre, the mainline station and The King’s School — a strong location for families wanting convenience and good schooling. The ground floor opens into a generous, vaulted open-plan kitchen/dining/family space with skylights, exposed oak furniture and an inset log burner that creates a warm social hub.
The layout offers four bedrooms over two floors, a large sitting room with stone fireplace and double doors onto the paved garden seating area, plus a ground-floor shower room and a refitted family bathroom upstairs. Outside there is a gated gravel driveway, additional front parking and a powered double garage; established, tiered rear gardens provide private outdoor space for children and entertaining.
Buyers should note important practical details: the home is of solid brick construction with no known wall insulation, the glazing installation date is unknown, and the internal floor area is modest at about 718 sq ft — so space is efficient rather than expansive. Council tax is above average for the area. Local statistics show higher crime levels and significant area deprivation, which some buyers will want to consider alongside the property’s central convenience.
Overall this is a characterful, much-improved family home that suits buyers looking for a central Peterborough address, good school access and flexible living space. It will particularly appeal to families wanting ready-to-use living areas with scope to update energy efficiency and personalise finishes.
