Description

The Property - This attractive modern semi offers well proportioned accommodation including entrance hall, wet room with shower and WC, kitchen/breakfast room, full width sitting/dining room with fireplace and conservatory on the ground floor. The first floor provides three double bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes, and a family bathroom.

The house benefits from uPVC double-glazed windows and gas fired central heating.

The Outside - The house stands in a plot measuring approximately 98' by 30' (29.8m x 9.1m) overall. To the front there are raised herbaceous beds and a block-paved forecourt providing off-street parking.

The block paving continues as a driveway leading via double gates to the detached double garage, complete with inspection pit, to the rear. The split-level south facing rear garden is some 51' (15.75m) in length and laid to lawns with paved patio terrace, herbaceous borders and ornamental shrubs. Lean-to greenhouse at rear of garage.

The Location - The house is pleasantly situated in an elevated location with views over the rooftops to the countryside beyond. It lies on the eastern side of the popular north Hertfordshire market town of Hitchin, close to where it adjoins Letchworth Garden City. It is less than a mile from Hitchin mainline railway station and only a mile and a half from the town centre. Hitchin is on the East Coast mainline where it is joined by that from Cambridge and regular services run to London throughout the day. The fastest service to London King's Cross takes just 28 minutes. The swiftest service to Cambridge takes 35 minutes. Junction 8 on the A1(M) is a 4.5 mile drive away and Junction 9 is just 3.1 miles.

The attractive and historic market town of Hitchin is often cited as one of the best places to live in the UK and provides a wide range of facilities including excellent shopping, schools, pubs and restaurants, theatre and other leisure and sports amenities and places of worship. The choice is widened still further by the adjoining towns of Letchworth Garden City and Baldock.
