Manor Close, Ickleford, SG5

The current owners have thoughtfully extended and completely modernised this home, creating a superb family property with spacious open-plan living and contemporary finishes throughout. Homes of this calibre rarely become available on the Hitchin side of the village, and the setting is both peaceful and highly desirable.

You enter into a generous and welcoming entrance hall, which immediately sets the tone for the quality within and includes a convenient ground floor W.C. To the front is a well-proportioned living room featuring a wood-burning stove and sliding doors that open directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to flood the space.

There is a further reception room, currently used as a playroom, which offers excellent versatility and could equally serve as a home office, snug, or additional sitting room.

At the heart of the home is a breath taking open-plan kitchen/breakfast/dining/family room, spanning over 30ft in width. This impressive space has been designed with exceptional attention to detail, including soft ambient lighting within the skirting, extensive storage, quartz worktops, and a full range of integrated appliances. A striking bar area with shelving, mirrored backdrop, feature lighting, and a wine cooler creates a wonderful focal point, ideal for entertaining. Bi-folding doors open onto the rear patio, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living.

A separate utility room provides additional practicality and leads through to the internal garage/store. The ground floor benefits from underfloor heating throughout.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues with five bedrooms in total. One bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while the principal bedroom is particularly generous in size and features a walk-in-wardrobe and a stylish modern en-suite. The remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom.

Outside, the front of the property offers a block-paved driveway providing off-road parking for several vehicles and access to the garage/store via an electric roller shutter door and an E.V charging point. Soft planting, shrubs, and trees complement the frontage, with a pathway leading to the front entrance.

The south facing rear garden has been beautifully landscaped and is framed by an attractive old brick wall. A spacious patio area provides the perfect setting for entertaining and features a covered outdoor kitchen with stone worktops, space for a fitted barbecue, a sink, with hot and cold water taps and a useful garden store. Beyond this is a lawned area with a small additional patio and an array of established plants, shrubs, and trees. A composite decked seating area offers yet another superb space for relaxing or hosting guests. Secure side access leads back to the front of the property.

The property also benefits from solar panels, enhancing overall energy efficiency.

Manor Close is a small and quiet cul-de-sac in the popular village of Ickleford, comprising just seven detached homes, all ideally suited to family living. The location is highly convenient, offering easy access to Hitchin, the town centre and mainline station, as well as local amenities, a village pub, beautiful countryside walks and the highly regarded village school.
