A neatly presented two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, freshly redecorated and ready for immediate occupation. The living room faces the rear garden, while the modern fitted kitchen and two bedrooms make efficient use of the compact 490 sq ft footprint. The property is freehold with mains gas heating and double glazing already installed.
The generous rear garden is the standout asset, offering scope to extend (subject to planning permission) and create larger living space. A private driveway provides convenient off-street parking and leads to a timber workshop useful for storage or potential conversion. The site backs onto mature trees, providing a pleasant treed outlook.
Practical buyers should note the small overall size and older construction details: the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, and glazing was fitted before 2002. Any extension would require planning approval; no applications are in place. Despite these points, the home’s condition and location make it a straightforward option for downsizers or buyers seeking a manageable property to modernise and improve.
Location is a strong selling point: Hitchin town centre and the mainline station are walkable (around 20–25 minutes), and several highly regarded primary and secondary schools are nearby. Broadband and mobile signal are good, local crime is very low, and council tax is described as affordable, supporting practical, everyday living.
