From the moment you set eyes upon 2 Cherry Tree Gardens, this home creates a striking impression.  Modern in design and set in expansive grounds, the property is tucked away on an exclusive lane, enabling you to enjoy peaceful surroundings whilst being close to everything Hitchin has to offer. 

Upon entering the spacious entrance hall, the first thing that strikes you is the beautiful interior but also its calming atmosphere – it has an impressive sense of space and tranquillity.  The wooden flooring and exquisite oak staircase, complete with plush carpeted treads, perfectly set the tone for the rest of the property - warm, refined and quietly luxurious.

The downstairs provides all the space you need for busy family life.  At the heart of the house is the stunning kitchen/dining room – the perfect space for entertaining friends or simply gathering as a family.  It’s a wonderfully bright and airy space, thanks to its dual aspect and large bifold doors.  The kitchen is sleek and contemporary in design, with high gloss white cabinetry featuring LED plinth lighting, tinted mirrored splashbacks and a beautifully contrasting slate blue kitchen island.  It’s a room set up for those who take their cooking (and entertaining) seriously.  All the kitchen appliances are integrated and include a NEFF induction hob and multiple ovens, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and wine fridge.  It’s easy to picture yourself perched at the kitchen island enjoying that first freshly brewed coffee of the morning, or perhaps a well-earned glass of wine in the evening.  The adjoining dining area provides the perfect space for enjoying a meal with the family or an informal supper with friends.  With plenty of space for a large table and chairs, plus bifold doors which open directly on to the contemporary seating area outside – it’s a fantastic setting for summer entertaining. Adjacent to the kitchen is the enviable addition of a walk-in pantry - providing additional storage space.

The generous sitting room provides a tranquil space for relaxing and spending time together.  Beautifully decorated with a light and neutral colour scheme and wooden flooring, this room features bifold doors which provide access to the garden and introduce plenty of natural light.  A feature wood burner is set into the wall, creating a lovely focal point without intruding on space, and the source of plenty of cosy nights in – making this the perfect room for spending time with loved ones, whatever the season.  

Another wonderful feature of this remarkable property is the playroom.  This double aspect room features large windows and beautifully crafted teal-blue storage cabinets.  It’s an incredibly versatile room that could have any number of uses – including a den, craft room or home office.  On the opposite side of the ground floor is a large office which has been thoughtfully fitted out with built-in cabinetry, providing plenty of storage and the perfect place for working from home.  

Completing the downstairs is a large utility, which has space for a washing machine and tumble dryer as well as direct access outside (invaluable if returning home with a muddy dog and/or children), plus a modern cloakroom – both indispensable for anyone juggling a typically busy family life.

Upstairs is the perfect sanctuary to escape and relax after a busy day.  There are four double bedrooms, all extremely generous in size and well-proportioned (so no arguing over who gets the largest room!)  Every bedroom is light and spacious, providing a welcome personal space for each family member.  The luxurious principal suite is the perfect sanctuary to escape and relax after a busy day.  Flooded with natural light, it enjoys its own dressing area plus the most stunning ensuite shower room, featuring white marble tiling and a luxurious white bathroom suite, including a large walk-in shower and double vanity unit.   The other three bedrooms are also bright and airy, with the guest bedroom also featuring an ensuite shower room with a modern, white suite.  Both the main bedroom and one other bedroom have built-in wardrobes.  The family bathroom is equally stylish – fully tiled in a contemporary, neutral shade, it features a modern white suite with separate bath and corner shower cubicle. 

Outside, the back garden has an expansive, wrap-around lawn, providing plenty of space for children to enjoy time outside playing (and easily big enough for a serious game of football!)  There are several mature trees to provide dappled shade in summer and a spacious patio area for entertaining family and friends during the summer months – it’s the perfect garden for all the family to enjoy.  A large outbuilding provides versatile space for multiple uses.  To the front of the house is a smart lawned front garden area with shrub borders.  Adjacent to the property is a double garage, providing plenty of storage, with a block paved parking in front for two vehicles.
