Summary - 46 KINGS ROAD HITCHIN SG5 1RD
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Period character near the station with a 60 ft westerly garden, ideal for families..
- Edwardian semi-detached home with original fireplaces
An Edwardian three-bedroom semi set between Hitchin town centre and the mainline station, this home offers period character with practical modern updates. Two reception rooms retain original fireplaces and tall ceilings; a fitted Shaker-style kitchen sits at the rear. The property extends to around 907 sq ft and faces west onto an approximately 60 ft lawned garden with greenhouse/shed and mature borders.
The location is a strong selling point for families and commuters: about 0.5 miles from the station and under a five-minute walk to Ransom's recreation ground with play facilities, allotments and sports pitches. Several well-regarded primary and secondary schools are close by, including two Ofsted Outstanding secondaries.
The house is Freehold and generally well presented, with replacement sash-style double glazing reported (secondary glazing also noted). Practical realities to consider: the property has solid brick external walls with no built-in insulation (typical of its era), a single family bathroom, and a relatively small plot compared with larger suburban gardens. These factors may prompt energy upgrades or modest reconfiguration for modern family living.
Overall this is a characterful period home offering immediate comfort, scope to improve thermal efficiency, and strong local amenities — a sensible choice for families seeking a central, commuter-friendly base in Hitchin.
