Property Insight:

This four-bedroom, semi-detached 1930s property is situated in the peaceful and convenient location of Brampton Park Road - a neighbourhood popular with families, and within walking distance of the station, town centre and outstanding schools.  The house has been thoughtfully extended by the current owners to create a stylish and spacious home that is perfectly suited to modern family living.

Stepping into entrance hall, you immediately notice the tasteful décor which combines both classic and contemporary styling.  Decorated in a modern colour palette, details including the dado rail, bordered stair runner and star-patterned floor tiles give a nod to the property’s heritage whilst creating a stylish aesthetic.  An understairs cupboard provides handy storage.

At the end of the hallway, the home opens up into a generous, open plan living space, seamlessly combining the kitchen, dining and family areas.  This beautifully presented space has a contemporary aesthetic and forms the heart of the home.  Large bifold doors and multiple skylights fill the whole area with natural light, making it feel open and airy, and attractive herringbone LVT flooring in a light wood tone runs throughout the space.  The dual-aspect and modern kitchen features sleek, white high-gloss cabinetry with dove-grey slimline quartz work surfaces and an impressive kitchen island.  The kitchen includes plenty of storage and has an integrated dishwasher, plus space for a range cooker and American-style fridge-freezer.  It’s a wonderful space for those who enjoy cooking and entertaining.  Tucked around the back of the kitchen is the practical addition of a utility area with access to the garden.

The open layout flows effortlessly into the dining area which has ample space for a large table and chairs and is perfect for both enjoying both relaxed family meals and entertaining.  The large skylight overhead and bifold doors flood the area with natural light and provide attractive garden views.  It’s a fantastic set up for hosting barbecues during the summer months and enjoying indoor-outdoor living.  The family room is a comfortable space for spending time together.  A chimney breast decorated in a warm grey with feature nook provides interest and there is room for adding a couple of sofas plus additional furniture.  The generous, open plan living space is perfect for modern family living and entertaining.

Located off the kitchen/dining/family room is a home office with garden views – a welcome addition for anyone working from home or in need of studio space.  At the front of the house is a charming sitting room featuring a beautiful box bay window with stylish shutters and a feature fireplace.  Decorated in neutrals with a pale grey carpet and striking navy feature wall, it’s a welcoming and elegant room that’s perfect for enjoying relaxing nights in with the family or entertaining friends.  Completing the downstairs is a handy cloakroom with contemporary white suite.

On the first floor are three bedrooms, all well-presented and with neutral carpets.  The smallest bedroom is currently being used as a nursery, and the other two bedrooms are well-proportioned and spacious doubles with feature fireplaces.  All the bedrooms have large windows which introduce plenty of natural light and are finished with modern shutters.  One of the double rooms benefits from its own ensuite shower room, decorated in fresh white tones and featuring a modern white suite with distressed-wood effect flooring and a grey heated towel radiator.

The stylish family bathroom is also located on the first floor and features a contemporary white suite - including a modern freestanding bath and walk-in shower - pale-grey marbled wall tiles, wood-effect flooring and a black heated towel radiator.

A loft extension on the second floor has created a superb principal bedroom suite.  Extremely airy and spacious, this floor has a fresh white scheme with a plush neutral carpet and plenty of room for furniture.  The bedroom enjoys French doors with a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden, as well as its own dressing area.  The ensuite shower room has been tastefully designed in a monochrome palette with black vanity unit, contemporary white sanitaryware and a walk-in shower with stunning marbled tiles.  The whole suite provides a relaxing sanctuary to escape to after a busy day.

The mature and extensive west-facing garden is a lovely feature of the property.  The patio area is superb for entertaining during the summer months, with plenty of space for outdoor furniture, and there is also a bespoke sunken seating area.  The garden has plenty of mature trees and shrubs and the large lawn is perfect for children to play on.  There are a couple of sheds to provide handy storage.  To the front of the property is a large driveway with off-street parking for multiple vehicles.   

This is a perfect property for modern family living – it has been thoughtfully extended and finished to create a spacious and stylish home.  A fantastic opportunity to enjoy everything Hitchin has to offer.
