Benslow Lane, Hitchin, SG4

A special Victorian townhouse, set on one of Hitchin’s most sought-after residential roads, offering spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over four floors. The property has been immaculately finished throughout while retaining a wealth of charming period features.

You enter the home via a welcoming entrance hall, which leads through to a generous open-plan living room. This impressive space enjoys dual-aspect windows, high ceilings, exposed wooden floorboards and two feature fireplaces, one of which incorporates a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. A modern and conveniently located W.C. is also found on this level.

Stairs lead down to the lower ground floor, where there is a spacious family room featuring bespoke fitted cupboards within the alcoves and an exposed brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove, providing an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with solid worktops and bespoke storage, including useful cupboards beneath the stairs. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a bright conservatory, flooded with natural light and enjoying views over the rear garden, with double doors opening directly onto the patio.

The current owners have obtained planning permission for the demolition of the existing conservatory and the construction of a brick-built extension, creating a fully open-plan living space if desired (North Hertfordshire Ref: 25/00860/FPH).

On the first floor, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both benefitting from fitted wardrobes and attractive feature fireplaces. The principal bedroom further enjoys the advantage of an en-suite bathroom.

The second floor provides two additional bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes, alongside a stunning contemporary family bathroom finished to a high standard.

Throughout the home, bespoke wooden shutters have been fitted, enhancing both style and practicality.

Externally, the front of the property features a small shingled garden with soft planting and steps rising to the entrance door. The rear garden offers a generous patio area leading onto a well-maintained lawn, bordered by established plants, trees and shrubs. A useful shed and an additional seating area at the rear of the garden complete this attractive outdoor space.
