Hipkins, Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire

Occupying a particularly impressive corner plot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this rarely available three bedroom home offers an unusual amount of outside space for the area, together with a detached garage, private driveway and a sunny south-facing rear garden.

The property is situated within the popular Thorley area of Bishop's Stortford and, in our opinion, offers a fantastic opportunity for somebody looking for a well-proportioned home with plenty of scope to make their own over time.

A welcoming entrance hall provides useful built-in storage and leads through to the principal ground floor accommodation.

To the front is the fitted kitchen, offering a range of wall and base units together with space for the usual appliances.

At the rear, the dual-aspect living room is a particularly bright and generous space, with plenty of room for both seating and dining furniture if required. French doors open directly onto the patio and rear garden, creating a lovely connection between the house and outside space during the warmer months. There is also useful understairs storage.

Upstairs, the first floor landing provides access to three bedrooms and the family bathroom.

The principal bedroom is a particularly good-sized double, while bedroom two is another comfortable double room. The third bedroom works well as a child's bedroom, nursery or home office depending on requirements. The loft is accessed from the landing and has previously been boarded, insulated and fitted with lighting.

One of the property's biggest selling points is undoubtedly the plot. The home enjoys substantial front and side gardens which give it a real feeling of space and separation from neighbouring properties, something rarely found with homes of this style.

To the rear is a landscaped south-facing garden, enjoying plenty of sunshine throughout the day and offering patio and lawned areas ideal for outdoor seating, entertaining and family use. Gated side access leads around to the detached brick-built garage.

The garage benefits from power and lighting and is approached via its own private driveway. Planning permission has also previously been granted for a dropped kerb to the side of the property to create additional off-street parking, subject to buyers satisfying themselves as to the current status of the consent.

Hipkins is well positioned for the everyday amenities available at Thorley Park, including schooling, shops, supermarket, doctors, green spaces, restaurants and public house. Bishop's Stortford town centre and mainline railway station are also within easy reach, with direct services towards London Liverpool Street, Cambridge and Stansted Airport.

Overall, this is a bright and well-proportioned home in an unusually generous setting, with the combination of its quiet cul-de-sac position, corner plot, south-facing garden and detached garage making it a particularly appealing opportunity within Thorley.
