2 bedroom Semi-detached bungalow For Sale

A genuinely rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional freehold holding within the historic Minster Precincts, one of Peterborough's most prestigious and tightly held locations.

Positioned immediately beside Peterborough Cathedral and extending to substantial surrounding grounds, this unique investment comprises two semi detached bungalows (Mandall House and Ashton House) together with two separate adjoining parcels of land, all being sold together as a single lot.

Surrounded by mature trees, landscaped grounds and the historic Cathedral precincts, opportunities to acquire property in this location are exceptionally uncommon.

Mandall House

Mandall House is a spacious semi detached bungalow occupying an enviable position within the Cathedral grounds.

Internally the property offers generous accommodation including a large dual-aspect sitting room overlooking the gardens, kitchen with pantry, two double bedrooms, accessible shower facilities and additional ancillary accommodation.

The property benefits from mains gas, mains water and mains drainage, and while it would now benefit from modernisation, it offers substantial internal space and enjoys an extraordinary setting rarely available on the open market.

Outside, the bungalow sits within attractive gardens enclosed by mature trees and historic stone walls, with uninterrupted views towards Peterborough Cathedral creating a truly unique backdrop.

Ashton House forms the second semi detached bungalow within the sale.

Like Mandall House, it occupies a peaceful position within the Minster Precincts and benefits from excellent privacy amongst mature landscaped surroundings.

The property also benefits from mains gas, mains water and mains drainage, complementing the wider holding by providing an additional semi-detached dwelling alongside the adjoining land parcels to create a significant combined freehold opportunity.

Included within the sale are two substantial parcels of adjoining land fronting Vineyard Road.

These mature landscaped grounds comprise extensive lawns, specimen trees, established planting and open green space forming an attractive gateway into the Cathedral precincts.

Both parcels of land are currently leased by the local authority on long-term leases, generating a nominal rental income.

The land significantly enhances the overall holding and presents purchasers with a highly unusual opportunity to acquire a sizeable freehold estate within one of Peterborough's most historic locations. Subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents, purchasers may wish to explore future possibilities, although the current sale is offered on an unconditional basis.

A Truly Unique Opportunity

Properties within the Minster Precincts seldom become available, particularly where both residential accommodation and extensive adjoining land are offered together.

Whether viewed as a long-term investment, strategic landholding or future redevelopment opportunity (subject to planning), this represents one of the most distinctive property offerings currently available in Peterborough.

The combination of detached accommodation, extensive grounds and an unrivalled Cathedral setting makes this an exceptionally rare acquisition.
