Woolgrove Road, Hitchin, SG4

Property Insight:

Located just a short stroll from the train station, is this charming, terraced cottage.  This character property has been beautifully renovated with a contemporary interior to create a wonderful home in the heart of Hitchin.

As you enter the cottage and step into what is currently the dining room, it immediately feels warm and welcoming, with its wooden flooring and neutral colour palette.  The dining room flows through into the sitting room, although you could easily swap the configuration around to suit your own needs.  Both rooms have ample space for a dining table and chairs, and the staircase has been opened up to create a sense of space and increased natural light.  The room also has a large under-stairs storage cupboard which is perfect for stashing away coats and shoes or hiding any clutter.  The wooden flooring continues through into the sitting room – this is a lovely space for relaxing after a busy day or for entertaining friends and family.  The log burner provides a wonderful focal point and there is plenty of space for adding a couple of comfy sofas - perfect for cosying up on a winter’s evening. 

The downstairs continues through into the kitchen which is beautifully appointed with contemporary wooden cabinetry and complementary solid worktops and flooring.  It feels modern with a traditional twist - perfect for a stylish period property.  The range cooker is a great asset for keen chefs and there is space for a fridge-freezer.  Although compact, the kitchen has been thoughtfully laid out and has everything you need, including access to the garden through a part-glazed door.

Completing the downstairs is a bright family bathroom which features a contemporary white bathroom suite, including a full-size bath with shower over.  

Upstairs are three, well-proportioned double bedrooms.  Each bedroom is light and airy, with neutral décor and plush grey carpet.   The principal bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and plenty of space for additional furniture, and each of the three rooms provides a calming space for relaxing.

Outside, is a low-maintenance south-facing garden, featuring decked and shingled areas.  It’s a great garden for entertaining family and friends during the summer months, and, with a little imagination, can be transformed into a truly stunning. There is rear gate access to the garden

If you are looking for a period property that’s in great condition and a short walk from the station, this cottage is well worth a viewing.
