Benington Road, Aston, Hertfordshire, SG2

Set in the heart of the well-regarded village of Aston, this distinctive and beautifully presented four-bedroom family home offers bright, contemporary living space.
The freshly decorated accommodation, mostly arranged on the ground floor, is approached via a deep hallway and features a tasteful, recently refurbished kitchen with an adjoining utility/boot room. The large open-plan living area steps down to a 20’ lounge with a vaulted ceiling and picture windows framing views over the rear garden and open field beyond. There is also an elevated dining area and a separate mezzanine reception room or study.
Three of the bedrooms are served by a stylish family bathroom, and in addition the main bedroom has its own en-suite shower room.
Outside, the south-facing rear garden includes a wrap-around sun deck directly accessible from both the lounge and utility room. There are steps down to a lawn with flower borders, and an insulated garden office and home gym, complete with power and dedicated wired internet connection. The garden borders a paddock and so enjoys a peaceful rural outlook.
To the front, a shared driveway leads to a parking area and a deep lawn that sets the property well back from the road. A detached double garage provides further parking, storage, or potential for conversion (subject to the usual consents). The property benefits from twin Indra EV charging points conveniently positioned beside the garage. Other eco-credentials the property boasts are solar panels with 7.93kW of solar generation and an air source heat pump providing energy efficient domestic hot water and central heating.
