Space, Warmth And Flexibility To Shape Your Family’s Next Chapter. Some houses are easy to live in, others actively help you get more out of family life. After more than twenty years here, the owner has shaped this 1930s semi into somewhere that keeps up with busy weekdays, makes weekends more enjoyable, and gives everyone space when they need it.

The hub of the home is the big open-plan kitchen and dining area. Light pours in through the roof lantern, making mornings brighter, while the scale means you can seat a full table for family meals and gatherings. Because it flows straight into the family living space, you don’t lose anyone to another room – homework, TV, cooking, or a glass of wine with friends all happen in one sociable sweep. The Amtico flooring makes it practical too: easy to keep clean, whether it’s muddy boots or a dropped juice cup.

That family space is also where you’ll find the log burner – the kind of feature that pulls everyone together on autumn evenings or becomes the backdrop for Christmas mornings. It’s set up as the main living room, but with so much square footage you’ve got freedom to adapt.

At the front, the bay-fronted room is currently arranged as a TV snug, giving you a second living area, but could just as easily be used as a dining room, playroom or library-style retreat. With the same hard flooring as the rest of the ground floor, it feels part of the home but still a space with its own identity.

Life’s practicalities are taken care of too. A utility room keeps laundry, boots, and the dog’s kit out of sight. A downstairs shower room saves guests from trekking upstairs and makes family life easier when everyone’s rushing in and out. And tucked behind the garage is a proper office – just far enough from the house to give you focus, with the shortest commute imaginable.

When the day’s done and it’s time to relax and recharge your batteries, the bedrooms give everyone their own space. On the first floor, two are well-sized for children as they grow, with room for desks as well as beds, while the third is ideal as a younger child’s room, nursery or even a quiet study. All are carpeted for warmth and comfort. The family bathroom works around daily routines – a shower to get you going in the morning, and a bath for kids’ bathtimes or long evening soaks.

At the very top of the house, the loft has been turned into a main suite with its own shower room. Separate from the rest of the bedrooms, and carpeted for a softer feel underfoot, it’s somewhere for parents to enjoy a bit more privacy.

The garden has a wide, level lawn that’s easy to enjoy – whether it’s football goals, a trampoline, or long summer lunches outside. The home office at the rear of the garage looks back over it, so work-from-home days don’t feel cut off.

Got a car? The front drive comfortably takes two or three, so no more evening parking juggle.

And then there’s the location. This stretch of Baldock Road puts you within easy reach of three towns – Letchworth, Baldock and Hitchin – giving you plenty of choice for schools, parks, independent shops, pubs and restaurants. Trains run direct to King’s Cross in around 35 minutes, and the A1(M) is just minutes away for quick road links north and south. Even closer to home, Norton Common and Broadway Gardens give you green space without getting in the car. It’s a spot that makes daily life simple, but also gives you options at the weekend.

Over the years, the house has grown alongside its household – the kitchen extension creating a real heart to the home, the loft conversion giving parents their own space, and the utility and office making everyday routines simpler. It’s all been done with living here in mind, not just to tick boxes, and now it’s ready for the next chapter with a new owner.
