3 bed detached house for sale

Glebe Road, Peterborough PE2

Description

Guide Price (£475,000 - £495,000)
Built in 1903, it's a handsome detached property that blends period style with practical modern touches. There's a real sense of character here - from the traditional brick and mock Tudor frontage to the pretty bay windows and neat brick wall with wrought iron gate. The off-road parking and garage are a bonus too, especially being this close to the city centre.

Step inside and you're greeted by a classic Victorian-style hallway with original mosaic tiled flooring that still feels fresh today. The staircase, half-panelled walls and updated tones bring it right up to date while keeping the traditional charm.

To the front of the house is a calm, cosy sitting room, with large bay windows that draw in the light and look out to the greenery. It's the perfect room to unwind in - peaceful, private, and full of character thanks to the detailed cornicing and statement fireplace.

Next door, the extended lounge/diner gives you proper family space. You've got two generous zones to work with - a lounge area for evenings in and a dining space for Sunday roasts or dinner with friends. The neutral tones and high ceilings keep things feeling airy and open, and again there's lovely detail in the coving, picture rails and fireplaces.

At the back of the house, the lounge opens into the recently updated conservatory (new windows, door in 2025) - a lovely bright room that connects beautifully with the garden. Whether it's your morning coffee spot, a playroom, or just somewhere to sit and enjoy the view, it's a great extra living space that makes the most of the light.

Space & Flexibility

Upstairs you'll find three good-sized double bedrooms - one of which used to be two, so there's the option to revert it to four if needed. The layout's really versatile, whether you're upsizing, working from home, or looking for guest space.

And there's more: Behind the house you'll find outbuildings that give you loads of extra potential - currently ideal as a home office or workshop, but equally well-suited for hobby use, storage, or even conversion to an annexe (subject to planning).

Location, Location...

Tucked away on Glebe Road, you're in a spot that's quietly residential yet close to everything. The train station and city centre are both within walking distance, making it perfect for commuters or anyone who wants to be near the action. You're also close to shops, schools, parks, and riverside walks - so whether it's convenience or green space you're after, it's all here.

Homes like this don't come up often round here - detached, full of character, and walking distance to pretty much everything. Add in the extra space out back and the flexibility inside, and you've got something that'll suit a lot of different buyers. If you think it might suit you too, just get in touch - we'll get you booked in for a look round.
