A charming and rarely available home enjoys a prime position on one of Hitchin?s most sought-after roads. Ideally located within easy reach of the town centre, mainline station, and excellent schools, it offers an exceptional opportunity for both families and commuters.
This exquisite double-fronted Victorian residence effortlessly combines period charm with timeless elegance. Arranged over three floors, the home showcases a wealth of original features and offers exciting potential for a rear extension (subject to the necessary planning permissions).
The ground floor is introduced by a traditional entrance hall, leading to a formal sitting room with an open fireplace and a separate family room/study, both rich in character with feature fireplaces and sash windows.
On the lower ground floor, a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with a pantry flows seamlessly into a striking conservatory-style dining area, bathed in natural light and opening out to the rear terrace. This level also enjoys its own private entrance from the front, and includes a double bedroom with en-suite shower room, currently utilised as an occasional Airbnb.
The first-floor hosts two generously proportioned double bedrooms, each benefitting from dual-aspect windows, along with a beautifully finished family bathroom and additional storage.
Externally, the gardens are a true sanctuary. Impeccably landscaped in a classic cottage style, they offer a tranquil escape with mature planting, established trees, and thoughtfully arranged spaces. To one side, a formal lawn and patio provide a perfect setting for outdoor entertaining, while the other features a productive vegetable garden, a raised decked area, a charming sunroom, and a garden shed, all designed to enjoy the serenity of the surroundings.
