Like this property? Maybe you'll like these ones close by too.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms - two comfortable doubles and a single - plus a family bathroom.
Now for the part that makes this a genuinely interesting opportunity if you’re thinking long term. Planning permission is already in place to extend upwards - adding a fourth bedroom and two en-suites onto the existing first floor.
That would create a significantly more valuable and versatile home - and without the need for a planning battle.
And separately, permission has also been granted for a brand new four-bedroom detached dwelling with a double garage in the rear garden, with its own access off Northgate.
Whether you build to sell, build to rent, or build for a family member, that option is yours from day one. The plans were approved late in 2023, meaning if you’re quick you’ve still got time to complete the purchase and break ground before having to consider reapplying.
Back at the front there's parking on the drive for several cars, a single garage, and an EV charger already fitted.
If you have younger children in your family, Park Lane Nursery & Primary School is only 11 minutes walk away, or 3 minutes in the car.
For older kids, Sir Harry Smith Community College (rated Good by Ofsted) is around 20 minutes walk away or a 5 minute bike ride. It's next to Alderman Jacobs Primary School. This could be an alternative for younger kids, if it makes the school run easier to have your family all on one site.
This spacious family home is just 10 minutes walk from Whittlesey town centre (or three minutes in the car).
Here you’ll find a range of local shops & restaurants, a leisure centre and library.
Whittlesey is a lovely, quiet market town but it’s also well connected.
Peterborough is just over 20 minutes drive away or 10 minutes on the train from Whittlesea station.
This could be the ideal base if you need to commute into London for work or pleasure.
You can jump on an East Coast Mainline train at Peterborough and be stepping onto the Kings Cross platform in around an hour.
A family home this size, this ready, with this much potential attached to it, doesn't come along very often. That’s why I’m expecting plenty of interest.
