Larkins Close, Baldock, SG7

Property Insight
A well-presented home arranged over two floors, with the whole of the ground floor given over to a single, light-filled kitchen, dining and living room that opens straight onto the garden. Its position moments from Baldock’s mainline station makes it a strong first purchase or a sound buy-to-let.

The front door opens to a covered porch — a practical touch on wet days, and one not every home on the close enjoys — and then into the ground-floor room, which runs the full depth of the house and works hard as a single flexible space, with a peninsula breakfast bar dividing the kitchen from the sitting area. The kitchen is fitted with white shaker-style units, white worktops and a metro-tiled splashback, with an induction hob, integrated oven and extractor, and French doors at the living end draw in light and give direct access to the garden. Wood-effect flooring runs throughout. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a comfortable double, the second bedroom currently serves as a home office and would equally suit a nursery, and a contemporary shower room completes the floor with a walk-in enclosure, white tiling and a bold half-height feature wall.

Outside, the rear garden is fully enclosed and private, with a paved patio for seating and dining and a lawn beyond — a manageable outdoor space ready to use from day one. Presented throughout to a good standard and requiring nothing more than a new owner’s furniture, the property is well suited to first-time buyers, downsizers and investors alike, close to the shops and amenities of the town centre.

Location - Baldock
Baldock is a historic market town in North Hertfordshire, 9 miles from Royston, 3 miles from Letchworth and 14 miles from Hertford, with excellent commuter links to London via its own train station or the A1M and M25. Though small, the town has an array of architecture spanning the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian eras. The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin was built around 1150 by the Knights Templar, sits at the centre of the town, and runs two church schools — St Mary’s Infant and St Mary’s Junior.

There is a long tradition of brewing which continues today, with local cider and ales sold at The Orange Tree, a 330-year-old pub. The Baldock Festival runs three weeks of museum displays, tastings, beer festivals, brewery tours, cricket, comedy and quiz nights. The town offers independent retailers, chain stores and supermarkets, alongside a football pitch, BMX run, basketball court, play areas and the Knights Templar Sports Centre.
