About
Dating from around 1898, this attractive Victorian home offers plenty of period character, well-proportioned accommodation and an exceptional rear garden extending to approximately 150ft.
The entrance opens directly into the living room, a comfortable reception space positioned at the front of the house with a bay window providing plenty of natural light.
From here, the accommodation flows into the dining room, which sits at the heart of the home and provides generous space for a dining table.
The staircase rises from here to the first floor, while a doorway to the rear leads through to the kitchen.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of units and work surfaces, with space for appliances and access to the rear garden.
Beyond the kitchen is a modern ground-floor shower room, fitted with a shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC. On the first floor are two well-proportioned double bedrooms.
A ladder-style staircase provides access to the second-floor loft room, measuring approximately 16'0" x 14'1".
This is a generous and versatile additional space which offers further potential for conversion, subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations.
Outside, the property has an attractive front garden, set behind a low brick wall and providing a pleasant approach to the house.
To the rear is a particularly impressive garden extending to approximately 150ft in length, providing an excellent amount of outside space for a home of this type.
A shared gated passageway provides useful access between the front and rear.
Towards the end of the garden is a substantial garden room with adjoining storage, offering a versatile additional space ideal for use as a home office, studio or hobby room.
Overall, this is a charming period home offering flexible accommodation, considerable further potential and an unusually generous garden, all within a highly convenient Hitchin location.
