£350,000 - £385,000 (Guide Price)
A substantial four-bedroom detached family home offering generous living accommodation, a double garage and an attractive cul-de-sac setting in the sought-after South Bretton area of Peterborough. Occupying a pleasant position within an established residential neighbourhood, 1 Harrison Close provides well-proportioned accommodation across two floors, complemented by a substantial conservatory, enclosed rear garden and extensive off-road parking.

The property has been well maintained and offers comfortable accommodation throughout, although certain aspects of the interior would benefit from cosmetic upgrading. This presents an excellent opportunity for purchasers to introduce their own style and finishes over time, while enjoying the space and practicality already in place.

The current owners have recently invested in a newly block-paved driveway and have also ordered and paid for new black uPVC double glazing and front door, which will provide a smart, contemporary update to the property's exterior once installed. The house is approached from the cul-de-sac via a substantial driveway, providing off-road parking for several vehicles and access to the integral double garage.

Its attractive brick-built frontage and established surroundings create a welcoming first impression, while the width of the driveway and double garage provide excellent practicality for family life.

Stepping inside, an entrance lobby provides access to the principal living accommodation. The sitting room is particularly spacious, featuring a large front-facing window that fills the room with natural light. Its generous proportions comfortably accommodate substantial sofas and occasional furniture, creating an inviting space for relaxing with family or entertaining friends.

The sitting room connects through an attractive open archway, with a short step up to the raised dining area. This creates a subtle separation between the two reception spaces while retaining an open, sociable layout. The dining room provides ample space for a large family dining table, making it particularly suitable for both everyday meals and more formal occasions.

Sliding glazed doors connect the dining area to the impressive conservatory, extending the reception accommodation towards the garden. Measuring approximately 19'8" x 12'8", the conservatory is a particularly generous additional living space, enjoying extensive glazing and attractive views across the rear garden. Its spacious proportions allow for a variety of furniture arrangements, including informal seating and dining areas, making it a versatile space for family gatherings or simply enjoying the garden outlook. Glazed doors open directly onto the rear patio, providing convenient access to the outside space during warmer months.

The kitchen is arranged in a practical L-shaped configuration and is fitted with an extensive range of timber-fronted wall and base units, complemented by work surfaces and tiled flooring. There is a selection of integrated cooking appliances together with space for additional freestanding appliances. The kitchen provides ample preparation and storage space, while offering an opportunity for purchasers to introduce a more contemporary finish should they wish.

An adjoining lobby provides access to the ground-floor cloakroom, fitted with a WC and wash basin, together with access to the integral garage accommodation.

The first floor is arranged around a central landing, providing access to four well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a particularly impressive space, measuring approximately 19 ft in length. Its generous dimensions provide ample room for a substantial bed, wardrobes, drawers and additional furniture, with the flexibility to create a dedicated dressing or seating area if desired. The room benefits from fitted wardrobes and enjoys a pleasant outlook through its window.

The three remaining bedrooms are also generously proportioned, offering flexible accommodation for children, visiting guests or those requiring space to work from home. Each room provides sufficient space for bedroom furniture, with good natural light contributing to the comfortable feel of the accommodation.

The family bathroom is fitted with a four-piece suite comprising a corner bath, separate shower enclosure, wash basin and WC. With its generous dimensions, the bathroom offers a practical arrangement for family life and further scope for cosmetic updating to suit individual preferences.

Outside, the rear garden provides an attractive and enclosed setting for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. A paved patio immediately behind the house creates a natural extension of the conservatory, providing space for outdoor dining furniture and informal seating. Beyond the patio, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by established planting and mature trees. A further paved seating area with a timber pergola offers an additional place to relax, while the enclosed boundaries provide a pleasant degree of privacy.

The combination of lawn, patio areas and established planting makes the garden suitable for families, gardening enthusiasts and those who enjoy entertaining outdoors.

To the front, the newly block-paved driveway is a particularly valuable improvement, providing generous off-road parking and access to the integral double garage. The garage offers excellent storage for vehicles, bicycles and household equipment, with potential for alternative uses subject to any necessary planning and building regulations approvals.

Harrison Close is a quiet residential cul-de-sac within South Bretton, an established and popular area of Peterborough. The location is particularly appealing to families, offering convenient access to local schools, shopping facilities, recreational spaces and transport connections.
