Summary - 46, WESTWOOD AVENUE, HITCHIN SG4 9LL
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Large plot, garage and excellent schools — a high-potential refurbishment project.
Corner plot with large wraparound garden and side access
Chain free sale — quicker completion possible
Garage and driveway to rear; useful off-street parking
Walking distance to town centre and train station
Excellent local schools; several rated Outstanding
Requires full modernisation throughout; budget for refurbishment
Double glazing present but installation date unknown
Potential to extend STPP — scope to add value
This three-bedroom semi-detached house sits on a large corner plot in SG4 9, offered chain free and with clear scope to extend (STPP). The plot, garage and driveway give practical parking and garden space uncommon for town-centre locations, while the property’s generous overall size and 2,137 sq ft footprint present strong refurbishment and reconfiguration potential for a family purchaser or investor.
The home requires full modernisation throughout: fixtures, finishes and some internal areas are dated and will need updating. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. These are straightforward targets for improvement, but buyers should budget for renovation costs and checks on services and roof/structural condition typical of 1950s–1960s construction.
Location is a key strength: within easy walking distance of Hitchin town centre, regular rail services to London and excellent local schools (including several Ofsted-rated Outstanding providers). The immediate area is affluent with very low crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — factors that support resale and rental demand.
For buyers seeking a project with strong upside, the corner plot and decent rear/side gardens make extension or remodelling realistic options (subject to planning). For families, the combination of size, schooling and transport links makes this a practical long-term home once modernised. For investors, the chain-free status and local demand suggest clear potential after refurbishment.
