Strathmore Avenue, Hitchin, SG5

Property insight:

This four-bedroom, semi-detached 1930s family home is located on one of Hitchin’s most sought-after roads and is located close to all amenities. Stepping into the bright entrance hall, you’ll find a cosy sitting room to your left.  It’s a welcoming space for relaxing, with neutral décor and flooded with natural light, thanks to its large bay window.  Situated behind the sitting room is a large family room, which could also be used as a dining room.  This versatile space extends into the conservatory and opens on to the garden beyond, creating a fantastic setting for entertaining family and friends.  There are numerous ways the rooms could be configured to suit specific family needs.

The kitchen/diner is another bright room, fitted with a modern white kitchen that contrasts smartly with glossy black subway tiles and features an integrated gas hob, electric oven and dishwasher.  With room for a table and chairs as well as an American-style fridge-freezer, this is a lovely family kitchen, perfect for preparing and enjoying meals together.  With French doors that open on to the garden, it’s also the ideal set up for hosting barbecues and gatherings over the summer months.  Completing the ground floor is a useful shower room with separate cloakroom – indispensable for a busy family.

On the first floor are four bedrooms – three doubles (two of which have built-in wardrobes) plus a single bedroom which would also make a fantastic nursery or home office.  As with the rest of the house, the décor is clean and neutral and perfect for putting your own stamp on.  A fully tiled family bathroom with a full-size bath with shower over completes this lovely home.

To the front of the property is a driveway with space for two cars and access to a modest but very useful garage/storage area. The rear garden measures 70' x 28' and features a patio as well as a lawn and borders, making it the perfect spot to enjoy sunny afternoons with family and friends.

If you’re looking for additional space, the property also presents an exciting opportunity for further enhancement with potential for a loft conversion and additional extensions.
