Description
Chain free and ready to move into, Stonecroft is a beautifully presented four/five-bedroom detached home extending to around 2,780 sq.ft. set within the peaceful hamlet of Pegsdon on the edge of the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Step Inside:
Every room enjoys an abundance of natural light and spectacular views. The kitchen and family breakfast room form the heart of the home, complete with contemporary high-gloss cabinetry, a substantial central island, a large Smeg induction hob and oven, and uninterrupted views over fields and open countryside. The dining room offers further space for entertaining, and the principal sitting room provides a wonderful space to relax, with French doors opening onto the patio and south-facing sunny garden. The focal point of the sitting room is a freestanding log burner, perfect for cosy winter nights in. Two further ground floor reception rooms offer flexible accommodation for use as a family room, home office, gym, or occasional fifth bedroom.
First Floor:
Upstairs, four generously proportioned double bedrooms include two beautifully appointed ensuite bathrooms and a further family bathroom. Every bedroom benefits from views across the surrounding countryside, creating a first floor that combines space and comfort for family life.
Step Outside:
To the front of the house, a crescent driveway provides parking for three to four vehicles, with access to the large integral garage. The garage has a remote-controlled door, power and light, solar battery storage, and an EV charging point. The rear of the house can be accessed via a lockable side gate, where you find a generous south-facing garden, predominantly laid to lawn, with a broad patio ideal for outdoor dining, and established raised beds already home to raspberries, asparagus and herbs.
About The Area:
Pegsdon is a picturesque semi-rural hamlet on the edge of the Chiltern Hills National Landscape, within the parish of Shillington in Central Bedfordshire. The Pegsdon Hills Nature Reserve, looked after by The Wildlife Trust sits right on the doorstep, offering some of the finest walking in the region across open chalkland and rolling countryside, and is home to grazing sheep and highland cattle.
Sitting just off the B655, Pegsdon has easy road access to the villages of Barton-le-Clay, Shillington and Pirton, and the historic market town of Hitchin. The village's own pub and restaurant, The View, serves Thai food, and there are other pubs within walking distance for a drink, a quick lunch, or a pizza with a game of pétanque. The local villages provide access to all day-to-day amenities including schools, a library, GP surgery, pharmacy, vets, post offices, local shops and cafes.

Hitchin, just 4 miles away, offers an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, supermarkets, leisure facilities, additional schooling, and a mainline station with speedy access to London St Pancras. The A1(M) and M1 are equidistant from Pegsdon for access to the wider road network.
Stonecroft is well equipped for efficient, modern living, with solar panels, battery storage and EV charging helping to keep running costs low, complemented by oil-fired heating and private drainage, typical for homes in this semi-rural hamlet. The flexible accommodation would particularly suit homeworking, home schooling, or a growing family looking for space to spread out or live close to nature.
Combining space, privacy and genuine countryside living with easy access to Hitchin and London beyond, Stonecroft represents a rare opportunity for life in one of the Chilterns' most sought-after settings.
