Property description
35 Werrington Bridge Road is a charming country property set in delightful grounds that border open countryside, and yet is just a short drive to local amenities and to the centre of Peterborough. The house has a pretty brick-built frontage that overlooks a sunny lawn to the front, whilst inside the current owners have reworked the rooms to create a unique home combining period charm with contemporary style and efficient modern fittings. Period beams, latch-handled doors and a magnificent original inglenook fireplace in the Living Room now sit alongside a contemporary Kitchen with an open-plan Dining Room and the house has modern bathrooms and double-glazing. Many windows throughout fill the house with light and make the most of the garden views, whilst French doors along the front allow the house to extend easily out to the south-facing terrace. The private, secluded gardens are a particular feature of the property; the house is surrounded by lawns, an orchard and lovely mature trees which border open countryside beyond. A haven for birds and wild-life, the gardens have plenty of sheltered seating spots and a hot tub on the terrace is ideal for entertaining on summer evenings. With its peaceful country setting and bright and functional accommodation, 35 Werrington Bridge Road is a charming and practical family home in an excellent location.
