Peretyatkovich trained at Saint Petersburg Institute of Civil Engineers, graduating in 1901, and the Imperial Academy of Arts under Leon Benois (1901–1906). Still at college, Peretyatkovich became famous as a refined draftsman; architect like Gavriil Baranovsky, Roman Klein and Ivan Rerberg hired him for drafting and interior designs. Thus, Peretyatkovich was involved in such high-profile jobs as the Hotel Metropol, Elisseeff Emporium, and the Pushkin Museum. Before graduation, Peretyatkovich secured a solid reputation among professionals in both capitals of Russia. In 1907, he travelled over Europe on the academy study tour, and learned the Finnish version of Art Nouveau practiced by Eliel Saarinen and Lars Sonck, as well as Roman architecture of Southern Europe; both these styles became the trademarks of his short career.

Peretyatkovich was born in a Roman Catholic family of Euzebiusz Peretiatkowicz, an impoverished nobleman. During his career in Petersburg, the architect was involved in activity of many local, Polish associations. In 1912 he married Janina Maria, one year later their only son was born. In 1916 Peretyatkovich's relatives in his ancestral estate died due to World War I front operations. The shocking news led Peretyatkovich to fatal heart attack.
