About
Situated within a quiet and highly sought-after cul-de-sac on Hitchin's desirable south side, this beautifully extended and modernised detached family home occupies a private south-westerly facing plot and has been improved by the current owners throughout their 30 plus years of ownership.
The property offers well-balanced and versatile accommodation, perfectly suited to modern family living.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall, complete with a practical downstairs cloakroom with a modern shower room.
From here, you are drawn into a generous sitting room, flooded with natural light and providing an excellent space to relax and entertain.
To the rear of the property is the heart of the home – a superb open-plan kitchen/dining room.
Beautifully designed for family life and entertaining, this impressive space enjoys french doors opening directly onto the rear garden, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor living areas.
The high-quality kitchen is fitted with marble worktops, a range of integrated appliances and an extensive selection of wall and base units, all of which have been exceptionally well maintained.
Adjoining the kitchen is a practical utility room, ideal for additional food preparation and storage.
There is also a second, generously sized utility/boot room, currently used as a dedicated laundry area, providing excellent practicality for busy family life.
The utility/boot room in turn provides access to the double garage, which benefits from power, lighting and electric door. The first floor comprises four well-proportioned bedrooms.
Two of the bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, whilst the principal bedroom enjoys a stylish four-piece en-suite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary shower room.
Outside, the front of the property has been thoughtfully landscaped to create an attractive and private setting.
A generous patio area leads to the front entrance and provides a pleasant seating space, complemented by raised borders filled with a variety of established plants, shrubs and trees, all enclosed by an attractive brick wall.
The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and designed with low-maintenance living, relaxation and entertaining in mind.
Predominantly laid to patio, with attractive shingled areas and mature planting, it provides multiple seating areas to enjoy throughout the day.
To the rear of the garden is a raised patio area which offers excellent potential for a home office, studio or garden room, subject to the necessary consents.
The property further benefits from a driveway and double garage, both of which are accessed from the rear.
The Paddock is a quiet and highly regarded cul-de-sac situated on the desirable south side of Hitchin.
Sharing the ever-popular SG4 9 postcode, the area has long been favoured by families thanks to its excellent school catchments and strong sense of community.
The location offers easy access to the A1(M) and is close to attractive open countryside, providing the perfect balance between town and country living.
Whilst positioned on the fringes of Hitchin, both the town centre and mainline station remain within walking distance, making it an ideal setting for commuters and families alike.
