Set in the heart of Shillington, this mid-terrace Victorian home blends period character with a village lifestyle. The compact living room, original fireplace and sash-style windows give immediate charm; a downstairs shower room and separate utility/store add practical convenience. Chain-free and offered as freehold, the house suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for a straightforward move-in-and-improve project.
The plot is very small and the overall floor area is modest (684 sq ft), so rooms are best suited to a small family or couple. The property dates from 1850 and has solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) and double glazing of unknown age, so upgrading insulation and some modernisation could improve comfort and efficiency. Broadband speeds are reported slow; mobile signal is excellent.
Local life is a strong selling point: a short stroll to well-regarded primary schools, a village shop/post office, pub and community hall, plus easy access to countryside walks on the Hertfordshire/Bedfordshire border. There is no flood risk and the area is very affluent with low crime.
Buyers should factor in likely maintenance and retrofit costs typical of pre-1900 solid-wall houses, and the very small garden and overall compact accommodation. For those prepared to invest, the property offers character, a central village location and immediate availability with no onward chain.
