Bearton Green, Hitchin, SG5

Property Insight:

This three/four-bedroom, semi-detached 1920s Art Deco home is situated in the quiet and leafy cul-de-sac of Bearton Green - a highly sought-after Hitchin location popular with families, and a short walk from all amenities.

Stepping into entrance hall, the house feels contemporary, featuring delightful period touches and a calming, neutral décor.  To the right of the entrance hall is a charming sitting room featuring a beautiful box bay window with stylish shutters and a feature fireplace.  It’s a welcoming and cosy room that’s perfect for enjoying relaxing nights in with the family or entertaining friends. 

The beautifully presented downstairs living space forms the heart of the home, seamlessly combining the kitchen, dining, and family areas.  The modern kitchen features sleek white shaker-style units, granite-effect worktops and classic white metro tile splashbacks.  There is space for a cooker and fridge-freezer and an integrated dishwasher.  The kitchen peninsula has seating for three and is perfect for casual dining or sitting and chatting whilst you prepare a meal.  The open layout flows effortlessly into a bright and airy dining area and comfortable family room, both of which enjoy views and access to the rear garden through French doors.   Perfect for modern family living and entertaining, the space is both practical and welcoming with large windows that flood the space with natural light.  Stone-effect floor tiles run throughout the area, adding interest and contrast.

Leading off the family room is a large home office with access to the garden via French doors.  This bright and versatile room is perfect for working from home but is equally suitable for a wide range of uses, including a playroom or craft room and could also easily double up as an occasional bedroom for visiting guests.  Also situated downstairs are a utility room (with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer) and shower room – both indispensable additions when you’re leading a typically busy family lifestyle.

Upstairs are three well-proportioned and well-presented double bedrooms.  The principal bedroom has a sizeable dressing area featuring built-in wardrobes.  Extremely spacious, there is plenty of room for additional furniture and the dressing room could easily be converted into a fourth bedroom if required.  One of the other bedrooms enjoys its own ensuite shower room and LED spotlights, all bedrooms have contemporary décor.  The family bathroom has a modern white suite, including a full-size bath with shower over, contemporary window shutters and a charming green and white tile scheme.

The 80’ x 26’ mature 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 the west-facing garden features a lawn that is perfect for children to play with a delightful path and established borders.  There are several mature shrubs and trees and it’s a beautiful location for relaxing in the sunshine.  A large shed and lean-to provide ample storage and to the front of the property is a large driveway with space for multiple vehicles.   

Bearton Green is an idyllic spot to raise a family– there’s a real community atmosphere in the cul-de-sac, which holds an annual street party and carol service, and has its own WhatsApp group.  It’s just a short stroll from local shops, as well as the town centre and several schools, and right next to the King George V playing fields.  This family home is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy everything Hitchin has to offer.
