We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
** VIEWINGS TO COMMENCE SATURDAY 4TH JULY** Occupying a sought-after position on a private road within Hitchin's highly regarded Chilterns area, this substantial detached family home has been cherished for many years and now presents an exciting opportunity for its next chapter.
Offering generous and well-balanced accommodation throughout, the property provides excellent family living space whilst also presenting considerable scope to modernise, reconfigure or extend, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The ground floor centres around a spacious reception room which opens into an adjoining dining room, creating a wonderful space for both everyday family life and entertaining.
The kitchen is complemented by a useful outside utility room, while practical storage solutions can be found throughout the home.
Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with its own balcony overlooking the rear garden.
A family bathroom serves the first floor, while a useful loft room and extensive eaves storage provide valuable additional space and flexibility.
Outside, the mature cottage-style rear garden has been lovingly maintained and remains one of the home's most attractive features.
Richly planted with established shrubs, flowers and greenery, it offers a peaceful and private setting to enjoy throughout the seasons.
The property further benefits from a garage, driveway parking and ample storage, making it as practical as it is appealing.
For families, the area is particularly popular thanks to its well-regarded schooling and strong sense of community, whilst commuters will appreciate Hitchin station being approximately 0.7 miles away.
The town centre, with its thriving mix of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and amenities, is also within easy reach. Homes in this location are rarely available for long.
Combining a private-road setting, generous accommodation, mature gardens and outstanding potential, this is a wonderful opportunity to create a long-term family home in one of Hitchin's most desirable residential areas.
