Property Insight:

This charming two-bedroom Victorian terrace home combines period character with stylish modern touches, offering well-proportioned accommodation across two floors together with a generous private rear garden. Tucked back along Stevenage Road, the property is conveniently positioned for Hitchin town centre, local amenities and the mainline railway station.

The front of the property is approached via a low-maintenance gravelled garden enclosed by a low brick wall, giving the house an attractive and characterful first impression.

Stepping inside, the front reception room provides a lovely introduction to the property. The dining room features a traditional bay window fitted with plantation shutters, wood-effect flooring and a decorative fireplace with a large mirror above the mantle. It's a bright and versatile room, equally suited to formal dining or use as a welcoming sitting area.

To the rear is the comfortable living room, centred around an exposed-brick effect chimney breast which creates an attractive focal point. There is a wall-mounted TV setup, while a clever under-stairs seating and reading nook makes excellent use of the available space. A door opens directly onto the private patio area, creating a pleasant connection with the outside.

The kitchen is positioned towards the rear and has been thoughtfully updated with high-gloss white cabinetry, ample storage, contrasting wood-effect worktops and Metro-style tiled splashbacks. An integrated oven and gas hob are complemented by dual-aspect windows, bringing plenty of natural light into this practical and stylish space.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to two bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a spacious double, featuring an attractive brick-effect feature wall and a window fitted with built-in shutters.

The second bedroom is a versatile space which could comfortably serve as a guest bedroom, nursery, dressing room or home office. A window overlooks the rear garden, while built-in open storage provides useful hanging and shelving space.

The modern family bathroom is fitted with a full-size bath with overhead shower, tiled splashback surround, wash basin and WC, providing a practical and contemporary finish.

Outside, the rear garden is a particular feature of the property.A paved patio immediately adjoining the house provides an ideal space for outdoor dining. This leads to a shared walkway providing access via a side passage used by the adjoining properties, with steps leading to a private enclosed south-facing rear garden. Further towards the rear is a secondary circular patio, creating another seating or dining area, together with a garden storage shed.

With its combination of Victorian character, stylish interiors and a generous garden, this is a well-presented home offering a great opportunity for buyers looking to be within easy reach of everything Hitchin has to offer.
