Property Details

Property Insight:

Tucked away in the central and historic town centre location of Bridge Street is this delightful one-bedroom property.  Small but perfectly formed, this bright and modern home is a great investment opportunity or a fantastic home for first-time buyers.

Entering through the front door and entrance hall, the downstairs of the property offers spacious open-plan living.  The kitchen opens on to the living room and features sleek, high gloss dove-grey cabinetry and integrated appliances, including an induction hob, electric oven and large wall-mounted cooker hood.  The kitchen has been designed in an ultra-modern, minimalist style and has plenty of storage. 

The limestone-effect flooring runs throughout the kitchen and living area, creating a seamless open-plan flow.  The living room has a distinct loft-apartment feel and features a vaulted ceiling, modern spiral staircase and French doors to the patio area outside.  A completely blank canvas, you can introduce furnishings and décor to suit your taste and lifestyle and put your own stamp on this lovely property.  There’s plenty of room for a comfy sofa, dining table and additional furniture, which will make this a stylish and cosy home.  The downstairs is completed by a contemporary shower room with a fresh white suite and décor.

Upstairs is a spacious and airy double bedroom, featuring timber floors, Velux windows and ample under-eaves storage.  Again, it’s a space ready for personalising.

There was planning permission, now lapsed (ref: 21/01398/FPH) to raise the ridge height and extend the property to two bedrooms.

One of the most exciting features of this property is the fact that you’re right in the heart of Hitchin’s cosmopolitan town centre, with shops, coffee shops and restaurants literally on your doorstep.  It’s also a great location for commuters with the station within walking distance.

Location:

Hitchin continues to be one of Hertfordshire’s most desirable towns.  With excellent transport links (fast trains to London Kings Cross take just 28 minutes and Cambridge just 33 minutes), Hitchin often features as one of the best places to live in the UK.  The town centre offers a wide selection of independent shops, pubs and restaurants, as well as a market, and has a thriving local community.  Hitchin also benefits from several schools which are rated outstanding, including the historic and renowned Hitchin Girls’ and Hitchin Boys’ schools.

As well as highly active local property market, Hitchin is an affluent area and is a commuter town. Therefore, house prices hold up comparatively well during turbulent times and thrive when the market is stronger.

If you aren’t familiar with Hitchin, we recommend spending a day or more here to enjoy all that this wonderful town has to offer.
