Property Insight:

If you’re searching for a spacious period property in the heart of Hitchin, this semi-detached Edwardian home has plenty to offer. With the current owners having resided here for 52 years, it’s a well-loved family home. Set on the edge of the town centre, the property has a contemporary interior and offers elegant and spacious family living set over four floors.

Upon entering the property, the bright and modern interior provides a contrast with its period exterior. Decorated in crisp white, the entrance hall features high-gloss marbled floor tiles in light neutral tones which continue through into the kitchen/dining room, creating continuity and a sense of space.

On your right is an elegant sitting room. Well-proportioned and benefiting from a large bay window, this room has retained some lovely original features, including an impressive fireplace and attractive plasterwork. The sitting room has a striking emerald-green feature wall and dark grey carpet – it’s a room which feels spacious but at the same time cosy and is the perfect space to relax and unwind after a busy day or to enjoy spending time with family and friends. On the other side of the staircase is a versatile and spacious room which is currently being used as a snug but could suit a variety of purposes – from a playroom for young children to a large study that’s ideal for working from home. It also provides handy access to the rear of the property.

The 24’ kitchen/dining room is at the heart of the house – the perfect space for preparing and enjoying meals with family and friends. Featuring a monochromatic colour scheme with sleek, high-gloss white cabinetry, slimline black work surfaces and white subway tile splashbacks, it’s a stylish and contemporary setting. Integrated appliances include a wall-mounted combination microwave oven and dishwasher and there is space for an American-style fridge-freezer. An impressive range cooker sits underneath a sleek black wall-mounted extractor hood, and LED plinth and cabinet lighting helps you set the ambience. There’s ample room for a table and chairs and plenty of storage space. Contemporary, black vertical radiators and smart grey walls complete the look, and a door leads down to the large cellar. Completing the ground floor is a rear lobby with access to a handy downstairs shower room, as well as a door to the garden.

On the first floor are three double bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes. The bedroom located at the front of the house is generously sized and enjoys a lovely, large bay window which introduces plenty of light. There is plenty of space for additional furniture. The other two bedrooms are both well-proportioned with plush grey carpet. The modern shower room is fully tiled with grey tiles and features a contemporary white suite. A carpeted staircase leads up to the second floor where the loft has been converted to create a large and versatile bedroom space with under-eaves storage and an office/study. Velux windows make the space lovely and bright and there is ample space for furniture.

Outside, the established back garden has a terrace for relaxing in the sunshine, as well as a large lawn area. Featuring mature trees and borders, as well as a versatile outbuilding, it’s ideal if you enjoy gardening and there is plenty of space for children to play. It’s a great setting for entertaining family and friends during the summer months. To the front of the house is a block-paved front garden which provides an off-street parking space.

If you love period properties, this family home not only offers an impressive amount of versatile living space, it’s also just a short stroll from the Hitchin’s cosmopolitan town centre and outstanding schools.
