Upper Floors & Outside
The first floor offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, two with well- appointed en suite shower rooms. The large family bathroom, with both bath and shower, serves bedrooms four and five. Flexible in nature, these rooms can be accommodated as bedrooms or further reception space as desired.
The principal suite occupies the entire top floor, creating a private retreat. Complete with vaulted ceilings, dressing area, built-in storage, and a luxurious en suite bathroom with freestanding bath and double shower, the room is complemented with French doors that open to a private balcony overlooking the garden, perfect for morning coffee or an evening sunset.
A block-paved driveway to the front provides off-road parking and access to the detached double garage, which is fitted with an electric car charging point. To the rear, the landscaped garden offers a generous lawn, established planting, and a large paved terrace for outdoor dining and entertaining.
The property also benefits from a solar panel and battery system, ensuring efficient energy use and reduced running costs.
Location
Gables Close enjoys a prime position just off Thorpe Road, one of Peterborough’s favoured addresses, close to Ferry Meadows Country Park and yet within just 0.8 of a mile’s walk to Peterborough Railway Station in the city's centre.
The Cathedral City of Peterborough is a regional centre for commerce, industry, retail, recreation, and leisure, with theatres, cinemas, ice skating, bowling, sports centres, and varied sports clubs. Peterborough Railway Station offers commuter services to London Kings Cross (from about 50 minutes) and to Cambridge, whilst the city also has good north-south and east-west road links via the A1, A14, A47 and A15.
The River Nene and the Ferry Meadows Country Park are within a mile of the property, with easy access to Peterborough’s “Green Wheel” network of cycle/jogging routes that provide over 20 miles of continuous sustainable routes around the city, riverside, and green spaces for residents to enjoy.
Schooling is well-catered for. The Peterborough School (an independent school catering for all ages) is 500 meters, or thereabouts, whilst The King’s (The Cathedral) School on Park Road is a 1.3 mile walk from the property, among other primary and secondary school options. Further afield, the market towns of Stamford and Oundle are both 13 miles, with Uppingham 21 miles, each with their renowned independent schools.
